title: Internet Search Marketing Consulting Dracula
Description: Internet Search Marketing Consulting Dracula is a search engine optimization and Internet marketing consulting company near San Diego, California.
Exchanging 3 way links would benefit our websites by increasing their link popularity, boosting traffic, and moreover three way links, being counted as one way inbound links by the search engines receive greater value than conventional reciprocal when it comes to rankings.
Blogging is the new way to go! Business blogs can be an excellent choice for both large and small companies - most companies already have a profile on the internet, but especially smaller companies are struggling to get visitors, and have serious problems reaching people interested in their field of business. Blogging can be a tool of communication to give hints for your sites new products to get featured.
I hope you will find the proposition interesting. If you feel, this will mutually benefit our websites, don’t hesitate to send me your website details, and I will add it right away.
Thanking you in anticipation of a favorable reply and hope to communicate with you again for link exchange with more websites.
Best Regards
Mr. Sharon Endnote
Link Builder Specialist
If you did not know the difference between SEO and SEO 2.0 now you know:
- In SEO 2.0 you would never send link exchange requests
- In SEO 2.0 you would not ridicule yourself by using stereotyped SEO spammer methods like spamming comments
- In SEO 2.0 you do not game the system but you use it to the max in the positive sense
Anybody who in fact does “3 Way Link Exchange” with this guy (name changed) is in a bad neighbourhood on a dead end. Hands off SEO spammers!

Yeah I get these all the time. The first one I ever got, I had to read it a couple times before I realized it was bullshit.
What, you mean those 3 ways don’t work?
:)
It may work, for a while at least, but not if you exchange links with a spammer who spams thousands of blogs with this message.
That’s the problem here: The messaeg is not complete crap, it’s partly true so you need solid SEO know-how to realize it’s crap.
Just “build” natutral links like I do with my blog, no link exchange needed 3 way or whatever.
You always make me laugh, man :)
School these kids on SEO 2.0
Brian, I guess “kids” is just the right word. I always wonder if those people are the SEO newbies or the guys stuck with the shady grey hat tactics of 5 years ago. I think they’re rather the newbies.
I get loads of these kind of emails on my inbox all the time. It seems all of them asks me to link to a new website and get another crap website to link to me.
I first encountered this concept of 3 way links when I came across a website promoting a network of site that does this. At first I was pretty excited about it, but then a good concept has fallen into the hands of spammers, who will link to anything including porn, and casinos etc.
David, in my case it was not an email, it was comment spam.
Some emails might be legit but still the concept of link exchange is a mistake by itself. In Web 2.0 you do give first to receive, on a voluntary basis.
I haven’t exchanged a single link with this blog but yes I have reciprocal links. They’re all oganic, natural and whatsoever so I don’t care.
On a side note: I do not even really optimize for Google. Most of my traffic comes from social media like StumbleUpon.
I think he meant threesomes, rather than 3-ways.
Fantastic post, i blame seo software for most of these emails as you can automatically find every website which is in someway related (i use the term lightly), not only that they allow unlimited amounts of emails to be thrown out at every variation of your email address.

Actually three way linking is SEO Gold if done properly. You honestly don’t know what you are talking about.
HR: Did you read the article? I think you only wanted the link. When you read it you can comment again. Until then I will delete your link.
three way link-exchange is dead. Google knows it? I am sure he knows.
It may be dead or not, but why exchange links in an era where you get links much easier without asking? So it does not matter. What matters is that you should delete such spam messages as the cited above.
I’m sure if you run such crap 3 way link exchage program, you will still find many newbies that would put a link to your new website on their homepage :-)

[…] best thing about my CLIQ is that they aren’t ugly SEO spammers who hide in dark alleys like I am, but they’re real […]
