Hi. I am interested in outsourcing link building campaigns (one way ideally) and wondered if anyone had experience outsourcing this part of the job, or can provide the service itself? Rather than developing a program, I would like to focus on getting more clients and have someone really efficient handle this aspect.
Thanks in advance.

bbl,
Many reputed SEO firms outsource their link building job to third-party firms.
We are in India and have tie-up with reputed SEO firms in UK and US who outsource their link building job to us. I have send you a pm.

As I replied to this post, I have got mant pm asking pointers about the service.
I am posting them here. Hope this does not violate forum rule. If it does, then please be kind enough to let me know [to avoid future mistake] and edit the post.
>We are in India.
>We are catering to the need of small-budget website owners.
>We do reciprocal, one-way links.
>we link with relevant sites only.
>we don't want to emphasize on PR factor as the experts say a link is a link is a link and we believe that a PR0 becomes PR5 and a PR5 might be a PR 0. Still if you are obsessed with PR we are here to provide you with that.
>No, we don't send automated spam. Stay away from FFA etc.

$4 doesn't mean anything without knowing what one could get for the money.
$4 a day, a link, a month. What upset me about such thing is that such way of paying is like placing an add on adword (or on yahoo as I saw on some messages). I gain credit for the link if I pay ever and ever. If for some reason I can't pay at one time everything is gone and all the money I spent earlier is gone. I wouldn't have problem paying $200-300 (would be a tiny part of what I spent in Marketing this year) if I knew I wouldn't loose the credit when I stop paying because the links would be removed.
The point you never know when you are going to stop paying. And I never know how is going to be my business tomorrow.

Right, hanedar.

Our work is not what you stated above. It is one time and the link stays on as long as you / your webpartner is not doing any trick [removing links without informing you etc.]

Thank you for the answer. I need somehow more targeted traffic and it would be nice to get links from sofware develloping firms since I am working mainly (but not solely) on sofware localization and want to develop this. I am pretty new to SEO and I don't know where to start from (any change on the Keywords are going to be done through me - the programmer of my pages sees them as their "babies" and is not going to let people play with them). All my pages are in the sandbox so I don't think it would be of any use of talking about SERPS but if I increase my PR it would be a success. It just need targeted traffic, the ones looking at my pages are not the ones I am aiming to (and I don't have time to beg for links).

I have the same issue, any more experience on the specifics of outsourcing link building would be much appreciated.
Questions I have-
Do you allow the outsourcer ftp access when doing exchanges?
Whats the best way to pay for these services? Per link, per hour, etc?
When a company offers one-way link building, how do they go about doing?

Again the reply is a little thin... even if it is a one time fee of $4 per link it does not say what the PR of the page is or how relevant the placement is.

Freestuff212,
Relevant Placement is what we emphasis. We would not place your link [ at least at the time of procurement ] that has tons of outgoing links and those pages that list from inkjet printers to cheap cialis to cheap Rome hotels and what not.
