Expensive Links. (Dumb Question.)



Go pickup a copy of your local weekly alternative paper and go to the backpages section. There are ads for cheap whores and expensive "escorts", it may be hard to tell which one will give you herpes, but either way you can have waffles in the morning. Hope that clears everything up.
 
Enough with the breakfast food teasers, you're giving me a Denny's craving.

In all seriousness (Eric is it?) I went to the web page and spent 35 minutes studying it, trying to determine what they do which would explain the higher priced links, and I think I found it. If you look at --

Haha, maybe this thread was a bad idea.

Although it's probably an obvious question to most it's something that has puzzled me for awhile. (It doens't take awhole lot.)

I just wanted to know why those links carried a higher price tag.

Although clearly they don't use their links themselves because when you google their 'name' their not even on the first page, lol.

Oh well...

The links are probably made in the USA. None of that cheap Chinese knockoff crap.
 
Links are just like anyother commodity. If there is difficulty in quantifying or qualifying a commodity somebody will be there to establish a market around it. If you decided you wanted to start selling orange juice you could go to several farmers, buy oranges off of each of them, of course they won't be of the same quality, and there will be a lot of overhead to coordinate all your raw inputs to get your desired outputs. Alternatively you source your inputs from a single souce, all the grunt work has been done, you just have to pay the premium. Link purchases are the same way. If somebody already sourced available linkspace on niches related to your own, of a certain pr or age then they can charge a premium to link you and the publisher up. The raw value of the link itself is only part of the equation.

Your job is to determine if the premium being charged is worth it to you.
 
First of all...100 links on just 5 domains? Sitewides? 2001? What? That sounds nasty to be honest.

Any form of buying links in a blog post is technically against Google's rules although I see nothing but top 10 ranking websites still doing this. I'd only be concerned with an expensive link if the site passed a certain quality check.

I'd also only recommend buying a paid link from a website that doesn't really advertise the fact.
