When it comes to any business, middleman is the one who always takes huge margin of profit. Manufacturers and end customers are those who always gets minimum marginal profit. Manufacturers cuts all possible extra costs to reduce origin price and reseller price. Customers always look for better discount value. The middle person don’t have to worry about anything but just get what customer wants and take his or her piece of profit percentage. The same applies on online link trader too.
If you found a company that is looking for link purchase on certain niche, all you have to do is search for sites on google that offer link sales or contact the admin and propose for a advertisement link. Working as a middleman or trader gives you opportunity to get list of website and blogs in certain niche. It is hard to start a blog with consistent content creation and link building to support certain niche in order to get a backlink. A good blog or website always need consistent content creation and link building. A good advertiser always give a good value to your advertising value.
Working as a middleman between blogger or website owner and advertiser gets huge sum of income. A lot of link sales network charges 30 – 50% from the advertisement value as service charge. That is almost half of what a blogger or website admin should get goes into middleman pocket. Maintaining a broker site have it’s cost and risk whenever we deal with Paypal. You can try to be link trader in order to make money online too. You don’t have to own a website to do this. All you need is a good resources. I have never really tried this method of link building yet as I’m almost have no time to allocate.

It is always good to buy directly but in most traditional business, traders will take large portion of profit. The same traditional rules applies in online trader too.
How about the do follow commenting services, is it in the same category of link traders? will this technique lead to penalization by google?
No, link traders is where you work as a broker and find websites and blogs in niche that gets paid to give a link for your advertisers. Dofollow blog commenting service is where you place a comment on dofollow blogs with specific requirements. As far as I can see, there are no penalty by google by doing comments.
This is a good thing to try, yet I think you might be better off link building yourself!
Agreed. Plus, we can always learn about fast changing SEO stuff by ourself. Providing this service to one or two clients a month can get some extra income too.
I have looked at linkbuilding and there are dozens of offers and sure lots from middle man but it’s always the question can you trust them do they really offer a valid service and don’t take your money.
but hence you could start offering it yourself as there seems to be lots of request for buying links
Of course, when we deal using the third party, all risk management will be handled by them. Probably, that is why the service charge could reach up to 50%.
But I thought we will be penalized if we trade links? =)
Yes, we do. But, some link buyers don’t bother about nofollow links and some link sellers don’t bother about selling dofollow links. So, even though it can get penalty, but bloggers and webmasters are still taking the risk.
