Two nifty items

I love to talk about, and study, linking methods. I have found two sites that have a slightly different take on links and linking.

The first one also has some well thought out linkbaiting at play. I love linkbaiting. I don’t get it right most times, but I still love it. Anyways….

Mark Cook over at Digerati Marketing is about to unleash a new set of SEO tools. The tools sound like something any blackhat would be proud to have in their arsenal.

The first is called Link Backrub. It is to find links that aren’t indexed and get them indexed. Cool.

Next is Flashdex. To get any page crawled within an hour. Says it’s guaranteed too.

The third tool is Social Storm. It does social bookmarking and tagging on autopilot. Spreads links out over two weeks from different IP’s.

Next up is StumbleXchange Automator. You guessed it. It will automagically spam post to StumbleXchange while you sleep.

Finally there is Link Buster. Will build over 100 revelant links each month. Says it’s not Blackhat either.

So, click on over there and read what Mark has to say.

Every now and then I find a slightly different wrinkle on link trading. Here is one that sounds like it will stand the G test.

Nick Mazza and Kyle Johnson over at adgridwork.com have a nifty take on getting links to your site. Here’s what they say:

adgridwork was conceived back in November 2006, after we realized that there was no simple, free and effective way of quickly promoting a website. At the time, advertising options were limited to paying for banner ads or text links, using a contextual service (like adSense), or manually contacting and trading links with other webmasters. Thus, we decided to create a free, open advertising network and allow bloggers, small businesses and other website owners to submit their ads into our ad network. In exchange for serving their ads on thousands of highly targeted and related sites, we would require that they in turn serve ads for other users. The end result would be a giant community of websites that would all help one another promote and market their products, ideas and service for free!

These stats are posted on the site: As of today, adgridwork has served over 73,309,297 impressions across 27,661,656 page views. Our network currently consists of 5,830 unique websites and is growing daily.

Now that sounds interesting. I’m impressed. I think I’ll give this service a spin. Check out their Free Advertising Network and Text Link Exchange service. Hey, it’s free. What more could you ask for?

Two different takes on links and linking. Coolio!
