Link building service - linkfool

[movingeverywhere]

Hi,

quick question - has anyone ever used link building service called linkfool ? I was on another reputable seo information site and linkfool showed up, i checked it out and at the bottom site was an seomoz logo to insinuate partnership of some sort.

Anyway , if anyone has used this service, was it worth the investment

Any link building company is being flagged by Google these days. If you're doing link building it needs to be independent and one offs and not share the same profile as other paid linking customers which is what you would get with a link building company.

We don't have an association with them, and will be contacting them regarding this logo.

Hi, saw this post on my Google alerts and thought it might be helpful to respond.

Link building has a bad connotation thanks to spamming black hats, outspoken link critics, and a myriad of other players in the market. You can follow that advice and still be quite successful with your website. However, link building done properly can be a powerful tool for your website growth and will make building your brand online easier. You can do link building yourself or you can work with a company like ours to develop a clean and professional offsite reputation with valuable links.

As a business owner or marketer you will at some point want to mention your website online. This helps the search engines recognize the relevance of your site and the popularity of it. It's a powerful variable for your rankings and if done right should also drive quality referral traffic. There will always be some form of offsite ranking variable and at the end of the day that's what we strive to provide for our customers.

You don't need to take my word for it though. Take a look around the web for natural link building experts and you will find some of the most prominent SEOs such as Eric Ward (http://www.ericward.com/) who showcase the real power of link building.

PS - Irving, you're spot on regarding the potential downsides of improper link building. However "Any link building company is being flagged by Google these days" is false.

PPS - Keri, we've removed the logo. We are big fans of SEOmoz and use a variety of tools to regularly to help our customers. Our apologies for any confusion.
