I'm still continuing my backlink campaigns without any breaks... but then I never got affected by the penguin.
I wasn't affected, but i stopped for a bit. When I stopped, my site rankings started to drop, so I'm back to backlinking
I'm going at it too, I didn't get affected at all with penguin, except fill in the gaps where competitors fell out. Manual web 2.0 first tiers I've been building. Small amounts of forum profiles and commenting in the forums.
I did't even stop building backlinks because penguin doesn't hit me. So my HQ BL are good enough for G
I did one backlinking today. However, I really don't think it is of much help. Some people already took my rss feed and publishing my links on their sites (not the entire posts). So I have been always getting something. But it doesn't seem to have any effect on my pages. They still remain ignored.
Business as usual + creating new sites. I'm still firmly of the belief that the update is an ongoing one and things will settle in a few weeks and the results will at that point look much more realistic than they do now.
When you speak of good links, you are still unsure what kind of links to build. if you ask me, Guest bogging is the best weapon. You can find a few guest post exchange sites. It might cost you $2-$3 per link but it's worth it.
I've completely stopped any form of linkbuilding as I've been hit pretty bad on almost all sites. Guess the linkbuilding still goes on whether penalized or not
Don't Stop Link buidling For effected Sites..Do the Link Building But With some Unique Content Good PR Sites. Social Media This is Best At All.
