Well few years back link exchange was one of the best way to achieve backlinks but lately it has not been so. It is hard to find people who are ready to exchange links with u. Worse they’ll put ur link on a third party site with low page rank. I have been wondering if link exchange is a good idea anymore!!!

Small correction to the above: ” I meant normally you just have to use images…but not just make a blog post with just images! I meant use images and photos among your post to better illustrate your ideas.

@Shoto: I don’t agree with you buddy. Infact even if a blog get 1000 visits per day….an addition 10 or 20 is not a waste. If you work on this additional 20 now…later you can work on additional 30 more…and keep increasing…

I think link exchange is good for begginers, but when you already have more then 1000 uv day it doesn’t matter 10 uv per day.

Very old point but very well said I completely agree with you. I have some links which dont send me traffic and I want to remove them… But at the same time I dont want to hurt the other person who has my link.

I’ve been finding that guest posts and link exchanges have been working well for me. I’ve been focusing on the SEO benefits (because I can choose the link pages and anchor texts for links back to my sites). However, the traffic is not to be sniffed at too.

forgot to say on previous comment: 30.000 unique visitors per day is quite big, and small mistakes are a big price to pay!

i don’t do much of these link exchanges fearing some google penalty or something… got penalties twice, not for this, but for duplicate content, and i can tell you, cost several thousand dollars, every time it happens… so i prefer to play safe!

My tech site is still in the initial launch phase. I have exchanged links with a few sites but the traffic hasn’t been substantial – about 1-2 visitors a day. Even in the past I haven’t received much traffic by exchanging links… I generally receive more traffic is someone recommends my blog in a post, rather than a sidebar…

Hi Daniel,

Good article and I have exchanged links in the past but I tend not too anymore mainly because I think it looks a little suspiscious to Google if two websites suddenly start linking to each other at the same time.
