Buy One Way Links

I am frequently ask "Is it ok to buy one way links?". The answer is No!!!! Never!!! Noda!!!. I am not sure I made my self clear. Simply do not do it. There are some exceptions to this rule which I will explain below. Everyone I have ever know to be banned from Google fell into the temptation to purchase one way links. With search engine positioning so competitive.

The temptation to buy one way links.

I understand the temptation to buy one way links or to buy links in general. You have built a great website. You have quality content. You have worked to do things you need to do to get a good web position. But none of your pages show up in the top 50 for the key words on their page. You check the back links of those in front of you and see that they have two or three times the links you have. So you do a search on how to get links to you site. Then you see the ads. For $50 will will provide you with 50 one way links to your site all on high PR sites. Or 500 links for $100. You go to their page and they make it should so temping. In a moment of weakness you decide to do it. You need an edge over your competition. Next thing you know your are getting tons of hits to your site. Your page rank is up. You type your key words into Google and find your page their on the first page. You are so happy. Then a month or two later traffic suddenly stops. You do a search for all you key words the do not show up in the first two hundred results. You go to your page and your page rank on your Google tool bar has turned gray. You type your URL into Google and you can not even find your page that way. You have been banned by Google and there is nothing you can do about it.

I have had many affiliate programs associated with my websites over the years. I have had dozens of friends and online acquaintances have that very thing happen to them. The were warned about buying one way links but they could not resist the temptation. Google and other search engines are vary serious about ending this practice When they see dozens of websites with the same links associated with them then they know it is a link farm. Then every one either gets banned from search engine or sent in to depths of oblivion where no one will ever find their page.

So does that mean I can never buy a link to my page. The answer is maybe. The question is, is the benefit worth it. Some of the legitimate ways of buying links are.

• Paying some one to put an article you wrote into their newsletter.

• Buying add space on a site.

• Paying for a press release.

Notice that none of these puts links on several sites at one time. There are some individual sites that offer to sell or lease link space to you. To improve your page rank you need many links. This becomes unaffordable to do through buying links. There are pages that have a page rank of  7 or 8 that make this offer. One link from a page 7 or 8 could help your site in it positioning. But they usually want 500 dollars or more. Again the price out ways the benefit.
