agentsonline.net

It's not bad but I would like to see more moderation to it, lot of spam tends to lay around awhile.

OK, I was just curious, it was mentioned before at least one time that I noticed it, but I was sick that day and not thinking write so when I checked it out I could not figure it our much and just forgot about it until I was reading the linking stuff yesterday, and looking at a fellow REW Forum poster who happened to have over 1000 back links to their site. I started looking at them and noticed that every one of them that was PR1 or higher also had a NO-Follow tag on it. Then I started getting frustrated. I also decided that it was a waste of time reading and trying to give a good answer to many of the blogs that I otherwise read. I mean really, are most of them well writen enough to deserve commenting on, just to comment on?

Anyway, I think you know where I am going with all this, but just in case I have clouded the whole thing. I was trying to find other ways to build back links, but every place I turn I find nothing but No-Follows, and it is starting to look like one of the only ways left is to create the places you will get the links from yourself.

Looking for, and open to other ideas though.

Jim

Jim, most blogs that allow comments make them "no-follows" mostly to combat automated spambots.

And I agree with you, they're probably not necessarily worth commenting on just to comment.

Stick with forums, some of them allow the link juice to flow through. Also, try to figure out ways that bloggers will WANT to write about YOU.

But it's certainly not an easy task, is it. . .

I agree, it's way to spammy for my liking, ads pasted all over the place and quite cumbersome to use: Besides any forum that advertises that they sell site wide footer text links is not something I want to be associated with - If they don't have a PR passon ban now, they probably will in the future.

I go there occasionally. The sections I post in aren't too lively, haha. But the people who run it are nice.

I've checked it out. But I don't use it much, because I don't get as many good ideas as I get here.

And I don't want to hijack this thread (which was intended to be about Agents Online), but isn't there some question to the usage of nofollow? I read this study:http://www.beanstalk-inc.com/blog/ which makes it sound like nofollow doesn't take away ALL the gain.

I'm still a mod there, participating here and there. Nah, the place is nothing like it once was, but it's still there.
