How are people able to "sell" backlinks?

Hello,

On micro job sites such as Fiverr, it appears that many people are selling supposedly quality backlinks daily. For an average starting price of $5, it may not sound like much, but when you start receiving dozens of customers a day (like these sellers are), it comes out to be pretty good money. Now I'm no SEO guru, but I've been around the block a few times, and I know that you can't get "500 quality backlinks" for just $5. The links are most likely spammy, but that isn't my point. Regardless, these sellers are recieving countless 5-star ratings and pocketing easy cash on a day to day basis. What software are they likely using? Since it is highly likely the links are not done manually, do you have any idea of what sources these sellers are using to sell these types of services? I'm not asking anybody to do legwork for me, but I'm pretty narrow-minded when it comes to SEO software, so any information will be helpful to me. Thanks in advance.

Pretty damn sure its automated no matter what they are doing.

Scrapebox, GSA SER, Xrumer, making their own bots (typically) in C#, UBot or ZennoPoster. And over the years there has been a bunch of other useful programs like Money Robot, Zsubmitter, and others - there are programs now like them in the Marketplace here.

Cheap providers are using these kind of tools to build large amount of backlink ( GSA, Link emperor, SENuke, scrape box ) with these tools you can expect an initial boost. But, don't expect for a long term result.

Manual service providers doesn't need any bots to provide backlinks. And the people want this kind of service because, it has no spam at all. That's why the service providers receive 5 star rating.

Service providing people are never get tired and work hard for placing the orders. Hard work gain more power and proficiency is high here. They focus to build non spam links for the clients.

I just give the information on backlink service providers and how they works for building links for clients.

PBNs, guest blogs, contributorships and (quality) web2.0's are still best done manually. But as such those will be the most expensive links. Then again, if all you do is blast crappy spam you'll never rank. Good links take time, and time costs money.

I sincerely doubt that someone offering thousands of backlinks in a day is typing them manually. I sincerely doubt anyone offering thousands of anything in a day is doing it manually. If you are smart enough to build a bot, with a little effort you are smart enough to build a bot that appears to be human (as far as comments go).

Remember the saying " You get what you pay for " No realistic business will go to fiverr and get someone to automate some links and they start ranking well. Those gigs are worth staying away from. That said fiverr has some decent gigs on there.

If there is more than one of something selling for 5 bucks, it's very unlikely for it to be manual. And if we are talking about a few hundred links, you can be absolutely certain that they are using some kind of automation. It's also likely that if they get a negative review for some reason, they bury it with a few good ones or just ditch the compromised account and start over - whatever's cheaper/easier. I don't know exactly how they do it, but I'm sure they are making a nice profit and know what they're doing. However, most of them are selling spammy links.
