      I recently installed Linkstant after reading lots of great reviews. I'm eager to use the new tool, but I would like to know HOW it works. Does it send Google queries??

      Just to give you some background info, I was recently burned by Rank Tracker...after using the tool it killed any access to Google and ruined a Google+ event that our company had planned. I do not want this to happen again, so I'd like to know how exactly it works.

      Thanks!

        Hi,

        It uses the same approach as Rank Tracker - normally you should be safe though but again - you never know.

        The guys behind the tool are good though - they know their stuff - but with any "link building" related tool there is a thin line you are walking on.

        Cheers.

          Thank you, Eyepaq.

          It didn't crash our Google usage here at work, so I'm assuming it works a little differently than Rank Tracker. Sounds like it works just like Google analytics would, but I have no evidence to back that up.
