Attracta
-
We've come across an offer through HostGator from Attracta for link building. They have a few packages but the basic offer is as follows:
50 Pro Links (text links to the site within 72 hours)
30 ¢per link,
$30 per monthHas anyone tried link building services through this company? If so, would you recommend them? Any insights otherwise?
It doesn't exactly sound white hat but at the same time we're curious to buy a month and see what links we get.
Thanks in advance for the feedback!

Hi Peter,
Thanks for the feedback. You're probably right that testing the waters is not worth the potential long-term implications. This certainly helps.
Regards,
Mike

Hi Mike
I have no experience of Attracta, but if, as you say, what they are offering "doesn't exactly sound white hat", that would worry me.
The last couple of years have seen many sites experience loss from 'not exactly white hat' link building. You can get quick climbs in keyword ranking, but if your site gets slapped it could suffer a long time in obscurity. The net result is not worth it.
But as I say, I have no experience of Attracta so my issue is not with them because what they do may be totally fine. All I would say is if in doubt be cautious.
I hope that helps,
PeterEDIT: I suggest it is also having a look at this page which may help you to qualify what may or may not work for you: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66356?hl=en

Should I Report A SEO Agency to Google
Our competitor has employed the services of a spammy SEO agency that sends spammy links to our site. Though our rankings were affected we have taken the necessary steps. It is possible to send evidence to Google so that they can take down the site. I want to take this action so that other sites will not be affected by them again.

The Importance of Bold Keywords in SEO?
Hi all, Recently I came cross an RV lifestyle blog named RVing Trends. The website features high-quality contents about handy RV camping tips & guides, and in-depth RV product reviews. They seem to spend a lot of effort on the content quality. I've followed this website for a few months and can see they've been producing 3,000-5,000 word length contents regularly. One thing I notice is that they emphasize the main keyword as bold in almost the posts. You can check 1 sample here about RV mattress reviews. Just want to ask for your opinions about the efficiency of this technique and is the keyword density still important for blog content to rank well in Google. Thanks!

Malicious backlinks
Hello to everyone! We have identified some weird links that are pointing to our site and we are not sure if they are considered malicious backlinks and we should disavow them. Most of them are directories of websites, the most common one is called "Top million domains by alexa" (you can see an example here: www.besafe.in/domain-list-237). Have you ever seen these kind of links before? Are they causing harm to our site? Thank you so much!

Link Building vs. Straight Earning Links Discussion
Hello, I'd like to start a discussion on link building outreach techniques vs. just building a good website with good 10X content. I don't like to receive unsolicited emails in my inbox, so why should the people in my industry? Also, I've seen plenty of evidence of 10X content soaring without link building outreach. But link building isn't dead of course, so can you tell me your personal experiences either way and the ethics of what you do? I especially want to hear if you've had luck with just building good websites and being successful based on the content itself, but an open discussion of either side is welcome. Leaning towards just building good websites and letting the Google algo do it's thing. Would love to hear your experiences either way. Thanks.
