Linkvana IMO Rating:- Linkvana is an established system for generating very high quality backlinks to your websites and this review considers the Linkvana service along with a few others. Linkvana is not cheap, but when you want quality, you should expect to pay more. Getting Started When you first log in to Linkvana , you must Add a project and specify a domain and assign it to a category. You can have unlimited domains in the system. It is these domains that Linkvana will get backlinks from the Linkvana network. Linkvana consists of a large blog network. These are not free blogs, or spammy junk blogs, but high quality blogs with established PageRank of at least PR2. Most of the blogs have higher PR and they are all indexed in the popular search engines. The blogs are spread across a large range of Class-C IP blocks which is very important for backlink building. Google and the other SE’s like to see backlinks coming in to a website from different IP addresses. Linkvana owns these blogs and they say they add new ones regularly which keeps the network fresh. They cover a wide range of nichesThe blog names are pretty generic so they can cater for a broad range of niches. Some of these blogs are considered authority websites, and a backlink from an authority website, can be as powerful as 20 backlinks from low or no PR websites. An example of a couple of these Linkvana blogs can be found below: http://www.zcherry.com http://bhampulse.com If you look at these, you will see how the posts work. Each Linkvana member is assigned an initial batch of blogs. Over time, each member will get access to other blogs in the network, but they restrict the number of blogs you can post to at a time. The member must write their own blog posts and assign ONE BACKLINK to their website within the blog post text. You can add links and anchor texts into a special area. This is optional, but is useful when you come to outsourcing the writiing of your posts. You add links in this fashion: http://yourdomain.com|keyword-phrase-1 http://yourdomain.com/page2.html|keyword-phrase-2 and so on. If you want,you can group keywords for the same page like this: http://yourdomain.com|keyword-phrase-1; http://yourdomain.com|keyword-phrase-2; http://yourdomain.com|keyword-phrase-3 and so on. You can create your blog posts offline and just copy & paste them into Linkvana. As with any blog post or article, you must ensure you optimize it for your desired keyword or keyphrase. This posting preparation can all be done in advance and the system will then post to the appropriate blog at an interval you specify in your project area. That could be daily, every other day, every week, or simply at a random interval which makes the intervals appear more organic. This is my favorite feature of Linkvana – I absolutely love it. You can have months of content for your websites prepared in advance and the system to drip feed your posts over time. You can also see at a glance how many posts have been sent to the blogs, and how many you have queued. So you know when you need to think about topping your blog posts up for a particular website. That is a very useful feature. Automating tasks like this makes the subscription worth while, but I still think there is room for improvement as I will explain later. For each website you have in the system, you can specify keywords and the anchor text that will be used as the backlink on the blog. To me this is a weakness in the system. Only being able to specify one anchor text. A different system I review offers the option of spinning the anchor text. Linkvana includes an outsourcing feature where you can opt to pay to have posts written for you and automatically posted with whichever website link and anchor text you select. They charge $2 for each post, but the quality of the posts are excellent and totally unique. You can buy credits for the outsourcing and I have a deal whereby you can get 50 FREE Linkvana credits here, so that would get you your first 25 posts written for nothing. [...]
