Would you be willing to sell a link for $5 or less? For a Busy SEO Test Link? I guess some will. I’m not the buyer here but I actually received an opportunity notice in my email for a Busby SEO Test link. Though I’m done with paid post since many months ago, I’m still registered at some of those websites.

Wow! Someone’s buying links just to win this contest? Isn’t that against the rules in the Busby SEO Test? Nope, the rules didn’t say anything about buying links. I didn’t really check further as to the identity of that buyer. But I’m amazed. The contest’s top prize is $5,000. Even if you invest $2,000 for 10,000 links, it is still not an assurance of winning. If the big G finds out, there would be a bigger problem.

So what if that link-buying is for negative SEO? I mean putting out a competing site in the SERP rankings. Flooding links to a site would alert the big G, and could lead to penalization of that site. But who knows the intention of the buyer.

I am not buying links, and I’m not selling either (unless it is above $50). And because it’s Christmas time, why don’t we just do a little link-giving here. This one’s free.

By the way, my friend Bloggista is also joining Busby SEO Test challenge. The Bizblogger is exhorting us to spend more this Christmas to help ease the global financial crisis. The FatherBlogger is posting some useful food preparation tips for healthier children. My friend Javi is also busy with his promotion of Palawan as one of the best Philippine destinations.

So there. Merry Christmas, everyone!
