Link Building Software - What To Look for and What to Avoid, by Eric Ward. What I've learned in 15-plus years...
By Eric Ward, August 27, 2010 | ShareThis Over the years I have probably tested and used over 100 different programs that in one way or another assisted with some aspect of the link building process. Many are long gone. Some are wonderful and incredibly powerful, others overpriced and should be taken off the market. I've had phone conversations with the developers of many of these programs, asking them why they have certain features that are blatant spam producers, and why they wont make changes to make their programs more useful and in line with search engines quality guidelines. Some tell me they "are working on it", but the discussed improvements never come. The only conclusion I can draw from this is the reason so many link building tools and programs exist is because of the gold rush mentality many link builders have. Second, any software that uses Google's Pagerank as a key part of their process is doomed.
