Do Sitespect links get indexed?

[AlyssaN]

I put a link on one of my websites using sitespect because the next release is not for a few weeks. The reason for the link is to pass domain authority (SEO Juice) to the linked site. In my next release I will add the link in the actual code, but am hoping that from now till then google will crawl and index this link.

So the question is, will google crawl and index links adding to webpages via sitespect?

Here is the code:

| * [http://www.](<a class=)yourdomain.com" class="" >YourDomain |
|   | |

Link to Sitespect: http://www.sitespect.com/

Whichever page you put the link on... fetch it as google (through your Google Webmaster Tools) and see if it shows up in the HTML source. If it does (and the link is not nofollow), then it will be crawled (as long as your page can be reached) and indexed.

I'm that guy, at least I am today. Never link simply for the 'SEO Juice'. If you follow that strategy, you will get your client/yourself in trouble in short order.

Is this link legit? Will it drive traffic to the target site? Is it even remotely related?

All of the numbers can be easily gamed. If you handle the situation intelligently, you'll have a happy client - without worry of penalties.
