When it comes to buying links for your site, I’ve heard a lot of people say that it’s quality not quantity which is important.
But how true is this?
I mean, is it worth spending your link budget on one site that appears on the first page of Google for a particular phrase rather than four or five other sites which don’t appear in the first 10 or 15 pages?
Where does the line blur?
Thanks very much

If they are all pretty relevant to your site, I would go for the multiple links, rather than the one relevant link with a higher rank.
Hope that helps, good luck!

Getting good permanent link from authority sites has to be the way to go. I have seen this work for some other businesses I run that are far less competitive than online gaming and you sure can dominate areas with not much competition with a slight bit of SEO knowledge.
There are some great SEO blogs and podcasts out there. One great one I found is the Delicious page for Wil Reynolds. I saw Wil at Affiliate Summit West in Vegas and he talked a lot of sense.

Another quick question for you … do search engines only look at current inbound links when calculating placement? What I mean is, if I have a link on an authority site for 6 months, will Google ‘remember’ that that site linked to me for a little while after the link has been removed?
Or once it comes down, do I immediately lose the effect of that inbound link?
Thanks alot
