It’s nice to see all your posts under one big picture - it helps bring focus and clarity to your methods of finding links. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge Jim… I’ve learned a lot from you this past year.
If you ever go broke again, at least you have enough material to sell a $47 link building e-book
Take care

I’ve been following the advice of one Jim’s articles and trying to buy clean text links from smaller non-commercial sites, mostly blogs. I’m wondering what you guys go on when offering a price for links?
