Should I pay £200 for epltalk.com to review my soccer site?

 

[JamieM]

Can you elaborate?

 

[mikewelsh]

We're asking epltalk to write an article on a review on our site, but we need to pay them. Is it worth paying that kind of money for a review?

IMHO you'd be better off joining this forum for £40 and taking advantage of the 'review my website' section (only open to full members).

There are some highly knowledgable peeps in there who will tell it like it is (so brace yourself)

That way, you get several different reviews and still have £160 to get your article written. Everyone's happy!

Good luck.

Google are starting to come down on review sites, as theya re essentially paid links. be very careful here.

Indeed they are - Interflora recently got a Google-slap for using paid 'Advertorials' as a linking method.

What is it that you are actually trying to achieve? Is it a constructive review of your website? PR? Backlinks?

That bit right there is the crux, answer that honestly and you will have yuor answer.

I honestly would not recommend using any site that promotes links for money, unless they are nofollow.

From the domain posted, a football fans website, I would guess its more exposure of the OPs website they're looking for rather than a design crit or backlinks.

Presumably if you approved them about your site then you think they could be of value, it really depends if you expect to get £200 worth of business' back from this site.

Realistically though we all need a bit more information about your business, the kind of review you are expecting and what you hope this review will achieve.

I would go with this.

Hm, why don`t you try to do some guest blogging? Contact blog owners and try to come up to a deal for publishing an article on their website? If you need just a review - well there are plenty of free options, where you can hear the essential tips.

Depnding what your site is I allow guess posts via fiverr on my football blog.

So you can save some money and if you like I'll do a swop on articles or links. Desperate for football links.
