Link Building Services Post Penguin

[comancsm]

Hi

Can anyone suggest a link building service that is of higher quality and still works nowadays? All the private networks were deindexed and it looks like we're left only with blasting software, which i don't really like.

I am doing research on link building now and i can't seem to find any service that meets the quality of BMR or other deindexed Homepage Networks.

Thanks!

Not to be a jerk, but "Quality of BMR" hehe BMR had no quality standards... As the sites they used held absolutely no user value.... (who would go to a crappy blog, with crappy content, about crappy sites?)

Not trying to be rude, but just pointing out that if BMR was your standard of High quality, then you might be looking to get yourself in more trouble...

IMHO of course

sorry not to really answer your question, but the question is almost impossible to answer....  As if another BMR type network sprung up, it would be a gamble and high risk to use it.

I personally would stick with services like Myblogguest and put out quality content there, and on your own site - forgetting the "network" mentality.

Mr. Thomas is correct - BMR was no better than any other article marketing service.

They didn't do spun content, but they let anything through the review process. They also had extremely poor support for creating an article with any type of media or custom styles -- they set themselves up for disaster. And their special 100-word  blog post service was by definition a grave SEO mistake.

I canceled my membership six months before they bit the dust because they ignored my suggestions to fix these simple items.

To add, I also would not call this a private network. Anyone with $67 could get into the network. That isn't very private is it?

So is article marketing dead? No. You just have to focus more on guest posting unique content and participating in networks that require quality content. Even Unique Article Wizard was hit but isn't completely dead. They still practice spun content though, so I'd suppose it's not exactly still a long term solution (although they got through panda just fine)

The owner of One Hour Backlinks made a comment a few days back about his service, recommending it as a supplement to your link building campaign. Maybe commenting on auto-approve blogs worked for him, but I'd strongly recommend staying away from this.

SEO is quickly becoming synonymous with marketing, building PR, and networking. Rand did a post on this not too long ago I believe.
