Website attacked by .ru backlinks

Why do so many SEO providers know so little about SEO?

Take a look at their website. It will answer your question.

Now you're suggesting paying the "webmaster" for a link - Do you think the BBC website has a webmaster that you can pay for links?

I did not suggest anything, should you be reading some intentions into everything, be careful not to accuse a vendor of stealing just due to asking for more than it's worth.

You're citing a response to backlinks: Remember as well that links are far less important for ranking than they used to be.

The answer to that was: A link from the BBC on their frontpage beats any comment on a blog 2.0 Infosite.

To make it obvious that a link is not just a link, there are different qualities about links.

to get one will be hard, you might need to pay the webmaster to bet on there.

Huh, looks like a suggestion to me.

A link from the BBC on their frontpage beats any comment on a blog 2.0 Infosite.

A link from the BBC front page doesn't exist, so I'm not sure how you think it's going to improve SEO or drive traffic.

So how does something imaginary beat something real?

The answer to that was: A link from the BBC on their frontpage beats any comment on a blog 2.0 Infosite.

Which is a pointless statement and possibly incorrect. Relevance is key to the value of a link. Which means a link in a blog post on a respected site could have far more value than a link on the homepage of the BBC website (if that were even possible).

If your suggestion was just referring to a comment on a blog post that's even more misleading as almost all blog comments are no-follow.
