Our policy on links

We are now 13 years into SEO, and 11 years attempting to study the more than 200 factors, or signals, that comprise the Google algorithm. We have so far been contacted by more than 19,000 webmasters suggesting that we collaborate on link building, and all but a few 100 have been rejected for one of the following reasons:-

• Mentioning PR - we abandoned that idea in 2003
• Reciprocal links - we also abandoned that idea in 2003
• Trying to teach us something about any of the 200 factors, or signals, that comprise the G algo

If you understand this, and therefore don't ask us to send a list of our sites, we could consider adding you to the acceptable list.

The only type of link that interests us is a new page, with title tag and header on the theme of the link, with an article.

See Our view on crap links

We are currently exchanging articles for 42 sites - on various themes:-

Our link article has to be on a different site than that to which you require a link, and has to be the same theme as the link we require.

As we have not contacted another webmaster for over 5 years now, you contacted us, so it is up to you to send us your suggestion, including the site/sites on which you will post our article.

However please read again the 3 rejection points at the top of the page as we are now, sadly, getting fed up with 100's of contacts per week from people who have been in the business five minutes, and who, although they are obviously highly intelligent, apparently cannot read.

We also have a directory for 3 way link exchange, at Free directory submission
