Link Building: Has Anyone Outsourced it Successfully?

Guys, has anyone outsourced link building successfully? What are your learnings, what companies do you recommend, how much did you pay?

Thx, Chris

We did outsource it at one point, worked for a while, but eventually we found out the outsourcing company was using stupid grey / black hat tactics (even though we specifically told them to keep it white hat) and it fucked up our rankings a bit for a while. So it can be a dangerous thing to outsource.

In any case, I would recommend you move away from SEO. An increasingly complicated, difficult game where your results can die overnight and take months to rebuild (if at all possible). You are better off mastering paid traffic. Most people I know who were into SEO are moving on (including myself).

But Most of the big enterprises are using Manual / Automated SEO for their Big business. And without any doubt they are getting good benefits. In case of outsourcing your link campaigning you have to remember that Most of the people don't know what is SEO. they just build crappy links and think that they are doing good job.
I used have used tons of fiverr gigs and ruined some of my sites. Remember that SEO is an Expensive thing. So if you hanker after cheap SEO then you will get nothing but Blots from the blue
About Pain traffic: Dude Paid traffics are the easiest way to get. But in most of the cases the rate of the traffic is not so much convenient to the earning that you are getting from those traffics.
In case of content locking its really very tough to monetize these paid traffic. I have personally faced this problem So I am not a fan of paid traffic.
thanks

I have two link builders working full time from the Philippines. They both cost $400/month each, and they handle a bunch of clients (who I charge several thousand dollars a month).

I used some shitty service, and completely ruined my rankings. No way to go back up now, until there will be the 'disowning of the links' tool released. My sites were penalized because of spam comments.

Interesting. What linkbuilding techniques do they do? Penguin-proof or rather low-quality links?

Penguin proof. All sites they're working on survived the update. Organic link building, no blackhat stuff at all.

What kindo of links do they build? Directories, blog comments, profiles, signatures and so on?

If you want to outsource your link building hire someone to manage this. Set your quality standards, minimum requirements for each link, set target weekly/monthly volume etc. Do not let them publish links before they will be checked by your guy and signed off first. It's extra work but better to spend a little more than fuck up your brand/money site. I've worked for marketing agencies and as in-house SEO - everyone is making the same mistake. Getting lazy and trying to cut costs in wrong place
