Improper usage of link building services can cause your sites to get sandboxed by the search engines so you need to know how to safely use these services

Yes, that would be terrible, right?

Here’s some link building tips you don’t see mentioned too often:

SEO, link building, and content addition should be done slowly or just gradually.  creating a 50-page site in 2 weeks won’t be looked upon as a normal site-building practice by the search engines.

The same thing is true for getting links to your sites.Starting off too quickly could end up being a cause for your site, or sites, to get sandboxed, taken out of the SERPs for a while.

It’s highly recommended that you build sites and content and obtain links at a reasonable pace.The search engines know how normal sites are built, so anything that seems out of whack with that pace and will set off alarms and get your site scrutinized.

If you have old, forgotten-about sites and want to bring them back to life by getting links to them, and by adding fresh content, you should take the proper measures when doing so.

Find out how many links you have pointing to your site using Yahoo Site Explorer.  Take that number and divide it by the age of your site/domain name in months.  That equation will give you your average links accrual pace, and you should keep to that pace, or slighlt higher when starting to build links again.Increase your link building schedule as you add more content which will bring the spiders back to your sites more often.

If you build links too quickly, you will end up getting sandboxed for a while and all that effort and hard work that went into your link building campaigns would have been for naught.
