Supplementary outsourced link building
-
Can anyone recommend an outsourced link building service they have used with success in addition to their own higher effort link building?
(I'm not talking about 1,000 automated directory link submission services.)
Thanks.

Concentrate on getting some unique and high quality content into your site rather than link building at this stage - remember even with link building, you need content for other website owners to want to link back to. Otherwise, the best you can expect are a few non-target website links or no-follow blog posts.
Combat the content first

Its not all that bad Thomas! Charles maybe re evaluate what you want here. Ive seen linkbuilding work but in many cases provide no value.
You can make external linkbuilders give a shit by incentivising them based on sales, but you often end up in a more complicated system than you wanted in the first place!
If I had the money for outsourced linkbuilding, I would be putting it directly into scalable linkbuilding like widgets and badges, or on Viral content.
That means your money goes to developers and designers, not spam and it means your money works for you 24-7
1 of these on your website http://blog.okcupid.com/index.php/the-biggest-lies-in-online-dating/ will do more for you than years of outsourced linkbuilding ever will

Oh by the way - there is a similar question here: http://www.seomoz.org/q/link-building-companies-for-super-hard-niches. You might want to try some of the companies.

Interesting question. I have tried several top SEO companies for link building. And none of them have really delivered anything. As Tom Critchlow usually says, the problem is "you can't outsource giving a shit."
What usually happens is this:
-
You pay premium for a reputable SEO company
-
They pass you on to a junior level SEO to do the link building
-
They send a monthly report with all sort of on site metrics and keyword tracking you probably don't need
-
They send a list of links- Turns out that the links are sidebar links from irrelevant websites (or worse) with way optimized anchor text.
Sorry about being so pessimistic on this one. But after trying multiple reputable companies, I have given up on outsourcing link building. The risk of receiving low-value-for-money or a penalty is too high for me.

India and Link Building
A client of mine has decided to work all Link Building through an India team that she's used for a few years. The problem that I'm having with this situation is that the link building list below contains quite a few 0/10 PR websites, spam websites, and websites that have no direct relation to the client's industry. Am I wrong in thinking that link building should be done to high PR, authoritative sites that are related the the client's industry? The link below will take you to the Google Doc that contains all links built for this client. I would love it if someone could take a look at that list and tell me what they think. Is this recipe for disaster or great link building? https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4a0JOKKFu0SUFZRbFRBNUZJekE Thank you so much!!!

Do you stop link building once you have your desired rank?
So with all these updates hitting sites left, right and center. Now you have your desired rank on Google, do you stop link building for that project? I can see some positives in this You will not add links that will get hit by future updates. If you do get hit in future updates you have less links to remove. Obviously it an outstanding link came along from BBC or CNN you would go for that. But press releases etc would you now stop anything like that?

Link Building & Moz metrices
I am just starting up so no flaming please. Okay so i was given a project and i was amused to see a lot of backlinks to the website with viagra pills title. This is why i assume the domain authority is very low. I tried asking a few website owners to drop the links but they said its a lot of manual work they wont do it(that was shocking) So what next? Would building authority links in any domains help me in this case?

Will building up the page rank of a page you have a inbound link bring any benefit?
Right then here we go You have a link in an article on a well known national newspaper site that points at your website. Is there any benefit of linking to the newspaper article in order to build up the PR of the article page and therefore passing over some link "juice"? Sub questions 1. Would it be more beneficial simply to gain links to your main website? 2. What are the chances of the article going into the archives and then at some stage being deleted? 3. If the article link points to a domain, which then forwards to a another domain will this pass on any "juice"? 4. If the article points to a domain that then 301's to another domain will this pass on any "juice"? 5. Does Google simply register the link and "juice" on the first pass or will it revisit and upgrade the "juice"? 6. What are the negatives? 7. What are the positives?
