1 Ugly Secret To Getting Back Links To Your Blog
Many blogs like this blog offer “DoFollow” on comments. What this means is that you receive benefit from leaving a comment with a link back to your site in your name.
What really makes this special is that it will benefit your Search Engine Ranking Position (SERP). I don’t have a problem with this as long as the comments are genuine and it’s pretty much a way for me to say, “Thank you,” for visiting my blog.
On the other hand, when you place a sufficient number of comments on “NoFollow,” blogs in order to gain back links to your website or blog, you are pretty much wasting your time.
These links are ignored by the search engines. So make sure you post on “DoFollow,” blogs. However, don’t spam any blog whatsoever. Read the posts and be genuine in whatever you say in the comment box.
Now, posting comments on blogs just for gaining back links to your blog or website is so damn time-consuming that blog owners don’t want to do it. Some people actually or use software… what I consider, spam bots. Please don’t do this.
Now that’s not all. Here’s the ugly secret. To save the trouble of making hundreds of comments on various “DoFollow” blogs, and avoid getting caught in spam filters, there are companies that will make relevant comments on blog posts using your chosen anchor text.
They charge anywhere from $19 for 100 comments and even up to $199 for 1000 comments left on your behalf. Would I consider this BS? Maybe, maybe not. However, it’s not something I would do.
You know what, this can really become a problem for blog owners like me, because it makes the job of spotting spammy comments almost impossible. I do have the awful task of weeding through comments trying to decide whose comments are spam or not.
So let’s take this into consideration, would you consider this spam… comments that were not actually written by the stated author, but was paid for? Does the fact that the comments were paid for make it legitimate? What do you think?
