Thanks for all you guys do

I am writing because I am trying to build a company's SEO link profile with links that have super high, and super stable Domain and Page Authorities (as well as solid Trust and Citation flows).

I do this organically and even build my own sites using moz strategies - BUT, I am in need of your best advice:  What are some links you can "buy" (as a result of using services from) that are strong and dofollow?

Is Constant Contact good?

Is Best of the Web good?

tweetangels smart?

I have seen several businesses with constant contact links (very high domain authority) on their profiles and as the head of business development for a mid-sized marketing firm, I want to see if constant contact, botweb, etc. are smart sources to put my clients on for the sake of the seo profile links - I am looking for strong, long-term perma-bumps for my companies and don't want to miss out on low-hanging fruit (that won't poison me in the end).

Can you speak to that please?

Do you guys have a list of directory links or 'whatever' links that are "get-able" by a regular guy like me that are not simply 2.0 nofollow?

Thank you

Ben

I am not sure I am of much assistance. The question reeks of long term trouble in my view. The short terms easy kicks you are looking for - may have surpassed you.  You could head down the path suggested but what works for one site - will not necessarily work the next. It really does have penguin penalty written all over it.  Getting relevant high quality links is simply hard work nowadays. Constant Contact has a high DA - but is it relevant to your sites?

I would imagine if you head down your suggested path for 3 out of 4 sites you will get lucky and then the 4th would go into terminal decline, with a penalty the site may never recover from.

Hi Ben!

Hard as it is to hear, you're really not likely to make much headway with links like that, rankings-wise. Directories really just don't have the value they once did, and it'd be pretty clear to the search engines that links from, say, Constant Contact aren't exactly "organic." That doesn't mean they'd _hurt _you, necessarily; it just means they're not likely to do you a lot of good.

It certainly takes longer, but you and your clients will be much better-served through organic link building. I'd recommend reading the Beginner's Guide to Link Building if you haven't already. It's a great place to start.
