Diluted Link Pages
-
When looking at a competitor's links, is it worth the time to try to get listed on sites they're listed on if all they seem to be are pages with links? Here's an example: http://blacktieaffairlimousines.com/links.html
I'm finding a lot of these, along with other low quality links from sites in other countries such as China, that have nothing to do with their business.
This is for a self storage company. Most of what I'm finding are what seem to be more "old school" link building (farming).

Heck no. Those types of links can get his site penalized.

Good grief no. No, no, a thousand times no.
Linking on low quality link farms such as that is a one-way ticket to getting penalised by the search engines.

Thanks Irving. That's what I thought. I keep seeing come up and I'm trying to come up with a good strategy to help them climb in the SERPs.

I would continue with erring on the side of caution when it comes to link building. That competitor is on a one way street to a penalty sooner or later.
