Comments on: InLinks: MediaWhiz Selling Links for SEO http://www.saadkamal.com/news/inlinks-mediawhiz-selling-links-for-seo/ Search Marketing for Small Business & Bloggers Tue, 09 Mar 2010 21:15:23 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Dwight Zahringer http://www.saadkamal.com/news/inlinks-mediawhiz-selling-links-for-seo/comment-page-1/#comment-315 Dwight Zahringer Sat, 22 Nov 2008 19:48:32 +0000 http://www.saadkamal.com/?p=554#comment-315 Fact of the matter to take in to consideration is that MediaWhiz, who ownes TLA, who owns InLinks and ReviewMe Ads and others. (funny how Aaron Wall reviewed InLinks but failed to mention LinkXL. Maybe because he sold his share in 2007 to MediaWhiz?) They have the strong affiliate and publisher network (not to mention established relationships which Patrick is good at through the industry) to get the press out there for InLinks. You think they didn’t do any deals “off the record” to get the word out? Not to mention that it is a clone of LinkXL. We (LinkXL.com) have taken the grassroots approach and let the word spread over the past 2 years and earned a loyal following that continues to grow month after month. Google has kept an eye on us and even made personal visits. Our advertisers or publishers have never been penalized. However, in my opinion they see this as a direct competition with their #1 form of revenue. Remember that they have shareholders to report to.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('315','Dwight Zahringer'); return false;">Reply to this comment</a> </div> Fact of the matter to take in to consideration is that MediaWhiz, who ownes TLA, who owns InLinks and ReviewMe Ads and others.

And its very likely for you to get busted when you buy links from a place like inLinks that has been featured in the home page of Techcrunch and got all sorts of publicity against them!<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('297','Saad'); return false;">Reply to this comment</a> </div> @jamiekeaney – I agree with you completely.

If you get busted, you're really in trouble, according to Cutts. BUT, if you don't get busted, and you buy links intelligently, you're gold. The FTC isn't going to come down on you for buying links, and 9 times out of 10, search engines won't either because they simply don't know. Until I see link values decreasing from purchased links, I don't buy the argument that they're getting better at it.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('296','jamiekeaney'); return false;">Reply to this comment</a> </div> think of it this way…big risk, big reward.
