      I am doing link building for an adult dating comparison website. One of the main competitors though, having checked their backlink profile have anchor text that is not varied at all. In fact many, many links that are all the same. How can they possibly rank in the post panda/penguin era? In fact they're at number 2! The site is an adult site and it www.f hypen buddy.co.uk if anyone wants to runa backlink check on OSE.

      Any help greatly appreciated!

        Hi Samuel

        I checked his backlink profile, he is on no. 2 for Search term "f--k buddy" & he is getting links from unique 27 domains. I see his backlinks too, backlinks are not so good..

        I think the reason why his ranking is not drop or are on no.2 is because of his domain name & the domain age (Created Date : 1st May 2006)..

        Hope this helps.
