Can you recommend a link builder from the Moz list?

Does anyone have any experience with some link building companies on the Moz recommended list?  There are a lot of them on there so I would like to hear from you if you have used them and what type of results you got.

Thanks

You probably would have a better bet doing the linking yourself. Chances are if they're specifically in link building they won't get many quality sites and will be more harmful than good.

So you don't think a single Moz preferred partner is any good at link building?

Here's the list in question: http://moz.com/community/recommended#link-building

Let's put it this way: based on my experience with the companies on this list, there are very few I wouldn't recommend as a link building partner.

Obviously, some companies are more specialized than others. Some companies specialize in link building, while others offer it as part of a larger, integrative service.

It's a good bet if the agency has a dedicated service page that describes their link building process in any sort of detail, that it's something they specialize in. Cost is another consideration, and most companies should be upfront with you about this.

Thanks Cyrus.

I was hoping the community would have a little more experience with link builders on the preferred list, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

It depends on what you need. Some companies will have more experience in certain niches and be able to turn-key the linkbuilding since they know all the sites where you need to be. Others may be better in your local market since they will already know any local listings where you can get links and likely have contacts at the local newspapers and magazines as well. Just make sure the company has a strategy that they can explain to you before you start.

And that you get a list of links they built. If they're on the Moz recommended list, they should be the type of company that does that, but it's just a general note. You want to be wary of the ones who say they're giving away secrets by telling you the links they've made.
