Link Building Tactics for 2012?

this is definately the best wat to fall under google radar for violation of google quality guidelines

I prefer to blog commenting, guest posting, and forum profile links. For blog commenting, it slow but you can get friend also.

Andy you made content with the post and comments you made. Now this blog post has a ton of great links and resources lol!

I think when it come to great content we should all look to the original experts at content creation - journalists. Ask yourself - is this blog post newsworthy, is it relevant, is it unbiased? Put yourself in the readers shoes and be honest with yourself - is this content really worth the readers time? I mean web content producers have it the hardest - pre-internet journalists weren't competing for nearly as much attention as now. For print media, readers may be stuck with only one magazine in the bathroom or plane - so that is what they will read. The web is inherantly a browsing platform - so we are always looking for something better. That is why online dating can be so discouraging - or so my friends say ! ; )

So be very critical of your content. And obviously put the time into what I call "syndicating"  the content out to social media, bookmarking, etc.

Just a question: aren't these practices going against what Google is trying to fix with the Panda update?

[Clix]

Is this true, or is it worth my time to continue to comment on relevant blogs/articles?

[Sglowmark]

Are backlinks services relevant in this post Panda/Penguin environment or are they pretty much considered spam now?

What kind of quality are you getting for this rate?

Can you provide an example of what a $1 article looks like?

I know some websites are getting great attention these days on the name of 1$ per article, but truely speaking I saw their samples, its just spunned content created by article spinners. SO its better you hire professionals. I know some awesome writers who charge reasonable price for quality articles but surely, not 1$ per article.

Eppie, do you still support these methods? These are very risky grey methods that I'm very surprised you're still recommending in 2012. Would love to hear your updated input. You're very smart and I love the Link Detective tool you created which is why I'm surprised to see this.
