for me linking have to be natural you should not do it just when you have benefits, when you are to muth focused on salling links something may go wrong and you have a lot of problems.

Link exhanges are fine, its where they put them. If you are built on wordpress or something then having them on a blogroll can benefit them more than you being on just their home page – if you have 100+ indexed pages then they will get 100+ backlinks.

Only go for it if you benefit the same as the other person.

Another thing to keep in mind is that Google does not rank websites based only upon the number of links that point to the site. Google caught onto the link swapping fad years ago. I think content is where it’s at nowadays. But who knows.

@TOMAS –

I’m totally cool with helping out an up-and-coming blogger…

Props to that Tomas – wish there was more people with that attitude.

If you wouldn’t link to them anywhere else why link to them at all? Most of the people doing the asking are SEOs so it can get you into some bad neighbourhoods.

@Jack – I completely agree, and that’s why I have final say on what gets posted to my blog. If someone submits an article that links to spam sites, is a copy of another post, or doesn’t fit within the spirit of my blog then I won’t post it – it’s as simple as that.

Ultimately there are individuals who really do have something good to share and just need some visibility, and I’m totally cool with helping out an up-and-coming blogger + sharing some great content on my blog while keeping the spammers at bay.

@Tomas – I’d be careful who you link to. If you wouldn’t link to them anywhere else why link to them at all? Most of the people doing the asking are SEOs so it can get you into some bad neighbourhoods.

I just added a contribute section to my blog where I direct individuals who ask for a link swap. So far, it seems to weed out the individuals who really have something valuable to share (which in turn will eventually land them on my BlogRoll) versus those who just want to get linked to for SEO/PR purposes.

@Jack and video izle – I’m a big fan of the blogroll too. I like to see where other people spend their time.
