Important and interesting question! experts pls answer <3

So, in theory, here is an idea. Let's say I buy a nice guest post with content that is relevant to my website's niche. After buying the guestpost, I send another backlink to that link which has my site in it. BUT, the link I send to the guest post might be risky. It's not a link I would want on my website, but if that link gives some power to the guest post that link to my sites, that might be a good idea.

I have competitors with links that are just obviously links that are designed to sell backinks. But somehow, my competitors are high on serp. I believe I can beat them, but I just started building backlinks like 2 months ago. So anyways, the backlinks my competitors have, are backlinks I wouldn't want on my own site, as they seem a bit risky. But why wouldn't I at least link them to my guest posts as they clearly work? I just won't take the risk even if it's little.

So yea it's not like a new idea, but yea.

Advice would be helpfuly helpful

Short answer, don't send shitty links to a site that you've bought a guest post from. It's just poor form.

If they have a different opinion, then they're wrong. If you wouldn't want it on your own site, then why would you send it to someone else's?

That's a great question. Simply because I want to make sure my site is 99% risk free. But I don't mind if my guest post get's maybe some risk as I believe the return is greater. What's the worst thing that could happen? the page gets de indexed? I'm fine with that.

I was just kidding though I wanna hear the truth. But I don't know why it just seems a little smart.

The worst is that the owner of the site will remove your guest post and redirects those shitty links to your site.
You think you're the only smart ass here?

Hey hey these are huge sites with thousands and tens of thousands of backlinks. I don't think a site like that will waste it's time on a small paid guest post.

But good thinking outside the box!

@Ozzyzig is correct. It's frowned upon. If you were to spam my site with some shit links, I would redirect that page to your money site, so you can enjoy the fruits of your own work.

And it really isn't too much trouble for those big sites to see who is trying to be smart.
