Niche edit or guest post?

[Doctor Sleep]

What works better for you?

Some sites offer lower price for niche edit, some sites for regular guest post.

Your opinions?

You don't want a link profile full of guest posts and you don't want a link profile full of niche edits.

That's why I use both

Guest posts.

I don't think there's actually an easy way for anyone(guys at google or elsewhere) to tell the difference between niche edits and guest posts. Unless they have to start looking at dates which isn't an easy thing.

So they're essentially the same thing at least by mere looking at them alone.

I'm thinking in terms of a manual review. If a Google employee reviewed your link profile it would be obvious if it was only one type of links. Like a link profile full of web 2.0s or a link profile full of only blog comments

Just my thoughts

Not really. You can see if a link is a web 2.0 or a blog comment. You can't really see if the link is a niche or a guest post. There is no obvious footprint to detect if a link is a guest post unless the article has an author box at the end of the article. They are technically the same thing but we use different names. When Google looks at it, there is no way to tell that is a niche edit or a guest post or that website just naturally mentioned you.

Oh ok. Now I understand.

I think that's where diversity links come in, even though I don't like nor value them.

But any site that begins to rank usually attracts some natural links that come in different flavors and colors.

If all your backlinks are niche edits they can see that your link was placed there after the article was published, usually years after. Easy to do using waybackmachine

I see what you mean for guest posts though, if done right they should look natural

So, no real answer for now....

I guess you skipped some messages/answers that's apparently why you seen 'no real answers for now'

Yea, but I don't think Google people will do that. Plus, when you edit old articles on your own site, you might throw an external link or two if new things came up. It is natural doesn't mean that the link is paid for or something. They are done in 2 different ways, but the result is the same: link in the article on the good authority website.

I skipped yes... The part where people from google go wo web.archive and checking my 400 articles when the link is placed.... I mean, come on...

I also don't believe that if yoy read my second reply to the thread.

Guest posts are believed(by almost all SEOs) to be the strongest.

Guest posts

 

[Mr Positive]

Use them both

 

[We Bring Rank]

Both of working well now, But you need to decide which kind of backlink is necessary for your site.

 

[SEOspur]

Both

 

[Digirulz]

Guest post is a better option.

 

[MisterXYZ]

Get links from both.

 

[True SEO]

Use both links
