Link Building this Month (09.2009)
A few days later than usually, but it’s here nevertheless: a new edition of Link Building this Month.
At Tribal, I’ve had the opportunity to interview dozens of potential link builders, and certainly know how difficult this can be. Useful tips like the 5 questions for link builders that Angela Moore listed, may help you to select the right people, and to build a great team of link builders.
If you would base your link building strategy solely on what people say in forums, or what they write about in blogs, it probably won’t bring you optimal results. Despite what some may say, reciprocal links can still be worthwhile, some directories are still very useful, and even some link buys can be very powerful. Even irrelevant links can help you to get better rankings :)

As always a great list. And congrats on being one of the “18 Must Follow Link Builders on Twitter.” :)
@Angela: Thanks! I just added Melanie’s post to the list, I totally forgot that one.
I totally agree – you so much stuff that ‘does not work anymore’. If you believed all you read, there would be no link building techniques left. The latest one I read is linkbaiting will soon have no value as it will be seen as manipulation??
Wow! very nice links provided.
