Poll: Do You Outsource Your Link Building?

A Search Engine Watch Forums thread asks whether SEOs perform their link building inhouse or if they outsource the link building efforts. Only two people answered the poll but both said they do it in-house.

It's no surprise, really, since we covered this issue over a year ago and it's best to keep the link-building efforts in-house. Many companies (not all, of course) don't build the best links. It's up to you to find the most ideal links for your company's website. Quality is significant.

On that note, we don't want to shy you away from this question, but do you build your links internally or do you focus on people outside your organization to build them for you? As AussieWebmaster points out in the Search Engine Watch forums thread, if you're short-staffed, outsourcing may be the right way to go.

Forum discussion continues at Search Engine Watch Forums.
