SEOs Prefer Old LinksThe results are in, and SEOs voted on which link they would prefer.

65% of SEOs said they would prefer an old and aged link over a fresh and new link. 35% said they want the newer fresh links over the older links.

We polled our readers back in late January and with 113 responses today, I think the verdict is in. At least we have a overwhelming majority opting one way as opposed to being undecided.

Our last poll results showed SEO's cant agree on the value of an image link, but I think, for the most part, SEOs can agree on this question.
