I agree that there is a big different between the way things "should" be and the way things really are! I go back and forth between thinking relevance matters. It all depends on the SERPS, and there are times it appears that non-relevant links are equal to what should be relevant links. It drives me mad... :) ~ Steve, purveyor of fine portable trade show booths hey Josh,

I think their thoughts are that there will be some reciprocal linking naturally within niches, especially tight niches. Where the line is drawn I don't know, but I've done some serious link exchanges and have only benefited from them. @ Steve – irrelevant links shouldn’t count, but they do just as much as relevant links in some cases contrary to what most forum lovers will say.

Relevant reciprocal links should count. Non-relevant (reciprocal or one way) links should not. The problem to my mind is what is "excessive"? Google is ok with some promotion, but not "too much". Any idea where the line is? ~ Steve, purveyor of fine portable trade show booths hey Josh,

Have a question on submitting to website directories for backlinks. I read in a few places that this technique is no longer effective. Can you share your thoughts on this? Best, Joanne Hi Josh,
