Link Building Advice

More link building advice, this time a critique from Jill of High Rankings:

1. Only Incoming (non-reciprocal) links - why? Nothing wrong with reciprocals.
2. Links with specified "Keywords" in the Anchor Text - Those are great, but ones without specified anchor text are also good.
3. Links from sites that have PR specified links page - This doesn’t necessarily matter since toolbar PR isn’t accurate or up to date, nor does it have any effect on rankings.
4. Industry relevant pages where links are placed - Also great, but non-relevant links count just as much.
5. Link to your site should not be through a "redirect" script - usually true, but Yahoo redirects your directory link, and many people pay $ each year for those. [Ed. note: No, not really.]
6. No JavaScript links - Agreed.
7. No framed sites - Why not?
8. No flash site links - Why not?
9. No robots.txt exclusions - correct, you don’t want the page your link is on to be excluded from the robots.
10. Exclussion in Robots Tag - Must me no exclusion?
11. No paid links - why not?
12. Links from Pre-indexed Pages only - no idea what that means.
13. Spread your site link across different domains - agreed.
14. No SPAM should be used to solicit links - agreed.
15. No links from Link Farms - agreed
16. No FFA networks - agreed
17. Don’t get links from Blogs - why not? That’s the craziest one yet!
18. No links from PORN, racially prejudiced sites and other sites containing offensive content - what if your site is porn, etc?
19. Full data sheet of links created at the end of each month - helpful
20. Only relevant established links should be counted in the final report - sounds good.

Yes, you can take off your tin-foil link building hat now.
