Hi,
I have a predicament that I'm sure many of you SEO specilaists have experienced in the past.
As a freelance SEO consultant I feel that it is important that I offer ethical 'link management' services to my clients. By ethical I mean no FFA, link farms etc. The problem I'm having is that I basically don't have time to build links to all my client sites on a regular basis (which is obviously required!).
I've looked at the following options;
Outsourcing the link building work - its difficult to establish a true element of trust with a contractor and the costs I have been quoted do not prove cost effective for my clients.
Link Programmes (such as links Exchanged and link market et..) - These only provide reciprocal links (non-reciprocals are better!!) and the sites which link to you often have little relevance to your on-site topic. You also may find that tere are often more than 50 links on the linking pages.
I'm basically looking for the way to offer my clients an effective, ehthical and affordable link building service (many of my clients have limited budgets).
Is there anyone out there who has experienced and overcome this problem? What was the solution? Or can anyone suggest any additional effective automed link management programmes / software?
Many thanks for reading this, hope someone can shed some light!

Well, if you feel linking is that important (and it is) you're gonna have to find a way to make it happen. The cheapest method is to find time to do it yourself. I've gone the outsourcing route and have been under-satisfied in many cases. Primarily because too few links in too long an amount of time. We resolved this issue by hiring in-house link builders. This was the most effective solution for our optimization clients.

Definitely outsource it. Don't use any automated means to do your linking, it could have disastrous effects on the site, including getting it banned.
Nowadays, it really has to be a priority and is beginning to become a must if you're going to see any roi from a website--you will not get ranked in the SERPs if you don't have any links.
