Linkvana Adds PR3-PR5 Blog Commenting Service

I have to admit, when I first saw the announcement when I logged into my Linkvana account the other day, I thought “hmm… something more to spend money on, is it even worth it?”

Linkvana isn’t really that cheap to start with (see my recent Linkvana review for more details), so the fact that they are adding services that require you to spend more money to take advantage of them can be kind of insulting.

But, I took a deeper look at the blog commenting service details and I think it might be worth a trial run, just to see what type of impact it makes on one of my projects.

Yes, Linkvana Really Works

I am now, officially, a huge fan of Linkvana.

I’ve given it about a 3 month trial run (well not technically a trial, since I’ve been paying for it), and I’m very happy with the results I’m getting.

I’m getting better results than I thought I would at first. But I had to go through some ups and downs before reaching this point.

Is it Possible to Build Too Many Links? No, but…

Matt Cutts has a good video today in which somebody poses the question “Is there such a thing as building too many links?”

Link Building – Be Humble, Be Confident

Let’s face it, link building sucks. You need to basically get used to being rejected a lot. It’s kinda like cold-call sales at times.

Linkvana First Impressions

As I recently mentioned in a post regarding link building networks, I’ve tried using Linkvana to help with some portion of the link building process for SEO projects. So far, I’m still pretty early in the stages of using it (about 1 and a half weeks), but my first impressions are pretty positive.

Link Building Services & Networks – Use Them Wisely

I’ve recently been looking at using some different link building services, mainly Linkvana and SEO Link Vine. These are both networks that allow webmasters to build one-way links to their sites through a network of blogs.

Both of these services are quite different, even though their main goal is similar, but that is for another post.

What I want to convey within this writing is that these services need to be used wisely.
