Link Building

[dapyx]

I love to write content, build websites, but I dont like the link building: stuff like link exchange, blog spam & other link tehnics that are out there.

So I want to ask for some help from a professional SEO company with this problem -> Link Building.

There are so many SEO companies offering this services... asking from $5 - $60 for a "quality PR4+ link"... I'm a little bit lost.

If anyone used such a service what company would you recommend?

It might well be recommended you do a little link building of your own first, and then only take on paid services once you know where your weak areas are (ie, the aprts that should pay that don't). Also gives you time to appreciate the market a little more, and determine which companies are worth more to invest in.

For home link building tips, Aaron Wall provides a good list:

Hello Dapyx and welcome to SEW Forums!

The Link Building 101 thread was made to help Members learn more about all possibilities and ways about and around this very important piece of SEO. You or anyone is welcome to keep that thread growing with new sources that you want to share with others.

On the other hand, you're asking a more direct question about outsourcing this process that is very time consuming and sometimes a pain in the butt. This was already discussed here in a bit more detail and here to determine the right price.

Personally, I've tried just about every strategy known out there (except the blogs, which I don't agree with). Link exchange is probably the most time consuming one of them all. Plus, it's one that will not reward you with the highest link points towards your SEO efforts. If you want something that is fast, efficient and does not require a reciprocal linking, then I would suggest you try building a tool or feature that only your site has (for example, if your site is about white elefants then do an "Interactive White Elefant Locator" or somethin like that) or write articles about your website's topic expertise and request content sites to host them for you as valued reading for their users. If it's good, they will probably add it. For the second one, I wouldn't recommend you taking just one and replicating it in 1,000 sites because it will eventually hit some type of duplication flag on the SE's monitors at some point. Be moderate and reasonable.

I don't excited about paying for links, although I may pay to place an ad within relevant content on another web site--but never on a links page.

In exchanging links I look for web sites that offer related products and I offer to exchange links at the bottom of content pages. For example, we sell Arc Flash label printers. I look for web sites that sell arc flash protective clothing. With good matchups between target markets, getting the link exchange is usually easy. And, instead of just trying to boost page rank, the links bring in good, paying customers.

I agree you should read a little before venturing down the road... and also develop some yourself.
The links given above are a great start.
I would wait and gain some insight into the methods etc. brfore investing - think of it like any other investment - worth doing the research in the long run.
