Are there any trustworthy link exchange forums? I have over 20 PR 4-8 links

I'm locking this question and disabling further replies. If the original poster would like more feedback, it's best to create a new question at this point.

Thank you Keri & Jennita for pointing that out I was wondering how my answer would be taken after the question was re-worded completely.
Noneyes you gave me the good answer and then changed your question and I answered that one as well. You have every right to change your mind on that. I do not mind at all.
So you know it is kind of rough on the people who are answering if you are changing topic of the question instead of just asking a second question.
Noneyes apologize if it sounded harsh.
It was not meant to be mean.
I hope that clears everything up.
Sincerely,
Thomas

It automatically shows that the question has been edited. It is Keri's job to keep the community informed, and she was making sure that people realized that Thomas' original response was because of the edit.

how are you employed? how am i paying for a service that publicly announces if i edit a question
-
Just a quick note that Thomas's answer was made before the question was edited and changed. The response was not to asking for talking about link building, but to a different question. For readers who don't know this, his response looks a bit off and harsh.

Happy to be of help Karen

Thanks Thomas!

quicksprout.com has a Q&A forum I believe at no cost. I do not think you are going to get any answers that will tell you how to acquire links without putting in a lot of effort.
I would recommend reading the Moz SEO guide it is valuable to matter what level you are at and will give you priceless information in Your quest to make a website better.
http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo
Think of it from the end-users perspective and work on it that way.
I would also encourage you to check out http://distiled.net/U
But if you want to build links today you have to think of productive methods in which that website can add value then share them through public relations PR newswire, will get you in front of a lot of journalists and bloggers that will write about your niche if the content is outstanding and worth talking about. If you are not taking advantage of social media twitter, Google plus all those networks will bring attention to your website and people can then link to you naturally.
The building links part of search is in need of a rewrite for name.
I consider link building making the site fantastic and promoting it through legitimate channels.
Think about it no website is going even last if you try to manipulate the system so you want to start off that way. Or if you have traffic you want to destroy it by messing it all up.
I do not know what type of website your discussing or the business that they do however there are ways of getting listed locally that are completely white hat if the site is a local business. You can also make a name for the site in social media and through press releases.
The only place even remotely similar to this that I can think of is quick sprout. I think you will get the same answers that you been getting here.
I hope this is helpful,
Thomas

Is this a joke?
What you are doing is spammy, unreliable and black hat
Do not exchange links that is not how to get ahead.
Your really just hurting yourself by doing it.
Put the links away do not trade links for money or just because you think somebody else might have some fresh links that would help you that is really blackhat
It is against googles policies

Is Forum Link Building a Waste of Time in 2018?
Hi there, this is a general question about link building strategies in 2018. It actually relates to reports derived from the link building audit tool on SEMrush, so forgive that. We use Moz as well, it's just that we happen to be working in SEMrush for link analysis. Basically, the audit tool looks at our links and our competitors' links. It has come back with a number of 'opportunities' for link building and I'm questioning the value of many of them, in 2018. Many of the 'opportunities' the tool is suggesting we explore include answering forum questions on places like Reddit, Quora, etc. The tool has been good at identifying topical threads which might hold promise (a very specific branch of legal services) but most of the threads are 3 - 8 years old. To answer them, I would need to muster someone with expertise to post a relevant answer. So, obviously, my question is does anyone think there is any value in this sort of link building in this day and age? I really think our greatest value will be in guiding their content strategy and looking for content creation opportunities on high authority sites. Thoughts?

How long does it take for spam link building to take effect?
I saw a recent surge of a low quality website to the top of SERPS, and looking at the link profile is almost 5,000 newly acquired linking RD's, with a total of over 49,000 links. I looked at a bunch of the links and they are super spammy (foreign language, way unrelated and out of context, spam sites with garbage content, pages of paid links to the websites subpages, etc). My question is, how long does it take for Google to recognize this and penalize this shady site?

Looking to outsource some of our link building...
Hi Everyone, We are a small online marketing firm in the UK and we are starting to hit a bit of a bottleneck in terms of the resources that we have that can be devoted to link building. As a result, we need to outsource the link building for some of our clients (around 10). Obviously, we only want ethical, white hat link building to take place and it really is a focus on quality rather than quantity. As you can imagine, being a fairly small firm, we also have a very limited budget! We would ideally like to work with UK link builders but would definitely look at overseas partnerships if it worked out more cost effective and the standard of the link building meets our standards. Just so that I'm not wasting anyone's time, we have a budget of around £200-300 for this (I know, its a very limited budget!). I understand that with this budget comes limitations so we would be more than willing at looking at some stripped down packages (for example, we already have in-house bloggers, so we wouldn't need that). Let me know if you are interested or if you would be able to recommend anyone to me. It would be a great help. Matt

Link Building Strategy Advice
Hi, I was wondering what everyone's general strategy is for link building. We're doing it all ourselves manually (i.e. not paying $5 for 100,000 links) and are using the Site Explorer tool to find links to competitors and related websites. The majority of sites are blogs and directories which ask for payment ($50 per month for example). We're obviously looking for free links as well but we're finding that pretty much every site wants something in return (cash or reciprocal link) - unless the content is amazing, why would anyone link to another site without an incentive? We're focussing heavily on content and writing articles, blogs, press releases every week but the subject matter isn't always exciting enough for someone to really want to link to it naturally. Thoughts?

Link building and directory links to a new site
I have three new sites all hosted on the same server in the same public html folder and each site is in a different folder inside the public html folder. These sites are a listing of live music venues in different cities in Texas. Should I link these sites together to increase page rank to each other and also put key search phrases in the anchor text and place these links in the text in the center of each page of each site to make the links more effective? Also, because the sites are about a year old they don't have many inlinks yet. If i submit them to about 50 directories will Google not like this because there are way more directory links than natural links? I've been told that it is trouble to have more than about 50% directory links compared to natural links. Thanks in advance for your answers! Take care,

Link Building: Feel like ive hit a wall
Hi, I have been doing SEO on my business website for about 4 years now. And it ranks #1-3 for my desired keywords and i always try to add new backlinks and keep uploading new content to a blog on the site as this is where nearly 100% of our customers come from so its important to me to rank high for the keywords related to my industry. However the last few months a competitor has taken over me for a certain keyword, i have researched their backlinks and site and from what i can see they have less content, and less backlinks, onpage seo isnt that great, and alot of the backlinks arent even related where all mine are in the same industry and i always research my backlinks to make sure that site has good backlinks also (i currently have about 48 root domain and 12,000 page backlinks for various pages of my website). The only thing they have over me is domain age, their domain is about 10 years old. I am also trying to target another hard to get keyword that im currently on Page 3 for, im sure over time i will rise to the top and its something i have to keep working at however i feel i wont get to where i want to be because im running out of ideas on where to get backlinks. After 4 years of building backlinks i feel like i have hit a brick wall, i started out by directory submission, then just links from other related sites, then i did a few article submissions and then i started finding it hard to get links so i started buying related links, however i seem to just keep buying and buying because im running out of ideas and it feels easier just to buy them, the only problem is its getting expensive and im now probably spending $80/month on paid backlinks! Although considering im not paying an SEO company its still a lot cheaper! I have gotten to the point where im researching sites that arent even in my industry (however still automotive related) and getting links on sites their on which was going really well, but now even that feels like its coming to an end and im back to submitting to directories their on. So other then directories, paid links, articles etc. what else could i be doing to build quality backlinks? I stopped doing articles because they were so time consuming and i felt like i was only getting backlinks from them that were worthless and held no authority. I have about 4 blogs (all on different IPs) would it be worth blogging on them and building content and dropping links from those to mine or is it not worth the effort when i could just submit articles to article websites?
