I've spent at least double that. ( in GBP as well not dollars )

Mind you it's only been over about 12 years not 41

Me to spent $0.00 on link buying. Well, Charlesgan, what is ROI of that 300$ / month?

**ADAM Web Design** · 03-15-2007, 12:54 AM

Since 2003, $0.00 as well. And the only link I bought before that wasn't for SEO purposes, but to try and get some initial web design business (which it did but then I didn't need it anymore.)

me too.. i just continue working to get more backlinks and traffic by doing alternative way without expending... cheers

You shouldn't need to buy links if your website has good content.

If people find your site helpful they will most likely link back to your site.

Well, you can spam forums like me for free.
Like what most people are doing.

**ADAM Web Design** · 03-15-2007, 12:39 PM

You're spamming and admitting to it? That's never a smart move...especially when you accuse most others of doing the same thing.

Who are these "most people" you speak of?

**bzimage** · 03-15-2007, 04:13 PM

I have never purchased links, only sold them. When you know how to get page ranks up it is easy to make money at selling them. I have heard of people paying several hundred for 1 link though

**chrishirst** · 03-15-2007, 08:32 PM

more fool them then

LOL... I call this ghetto advertising. Gets you kicked off forums real quick...lol

Take it from personal experience, self promotion on the forums outside of the buy/sell/trade forum is no way to go. I tried it on other forums if you just stick to doing it their everything is cool. When you step outside that you get canned. Thats what nearly all my rep and infractions are from

Not anymore

Wait till the mods see this ^. Anyway, I've never spent a cent on buying links in my whole life. I'm 16. So, it would be like, I haven't spent anything in 4 years !!
