You are right. Effective link building requires an understanding of the clients actual requirement. Simply going out and building 100′s of worthless links from unrelated low quality blogs/forums is certainly not going to do wonders for your positioning.

While I am not trying to blatantly promote our business, our USP here at Pragmites is to understand what your objectives are. Based on which we develop a full fledged link building strategy get that approved and then move ahead with it.

The really eliminates any kind of possibility of not being satisfied. Having worked with over 200 clients based in North America, Australia and Europe we are pretty proud of what we have accomplished.

We are actively involved with portals such as Elance where there are a fair amount of Link building projects that we have worked on. If someone is interested in giving us a shot I would be happy to provide you with our transparent reporting, case studies etc etc.

I do hope we are able to be become the holy grail of SEO service providers someday!
