Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Can anyone recommend high-quality backlink building services? A company you can trust to not spam your site all over the internet?

Would there be any benefit to building some backlinks to your social media profiles (i.e. Facebook, Twitter), considering that you're linking to yourself regularly from them anyway?

There are a few SEO companies that I would like to try out, but I figure why not try them out on my social media profiles first, before having them do any work directly to my site.

Thoughts?

I've got a new site officially launching next month (just waiting on a few inner page designs to be finished up).

But if I'm looking to get a head start on backlinks, would it be okay to start publishing content now on one of the default WordPress themes? And then start publishing guest posts immediately to get backlinks?

Or would Google look at the site as not being unique?

I have a few pages like the contact and privacy policy page that I could really care less about as far as whether people visit them, or whether the search engines index them.

They also don't have any sort of unique content on them... pretty much duplicates of what you'd probably find on hundreds of other websites.

Would it be logical then to just nofollow those pages?

I just don't know if maybe there's something hidden that I'm not thinking of. For example, maybe Google wants to see that your website has a privacy policy, and by excluding it, you're actually hurting yourself.
