Link Building Tip: Get Free Backlinks From Getting Free Reviews
In the blogging community, a huge money making opportunity came up for people to write reviews about other websites and get paid to write those reviews. This is the main source of income for many blogs. The reason people would want reviews done of their site was to simply get backlinks and traffic from other websites. You could choose the anchor text for the backlinks. Although they weren’t free backlinks, they were backlinks nonetheless.
The problem was that Google realized that people were passing pagerank for money, and they didn’t like that, so they cracked down on many of these sites. So, the pagerank links people paid for mostly all went down in pagerank. This is the standard problem with buying links. But, you don’t have to buy backlinks when there are many free opportunities to build backlinks for free.
But, there are quite a few sites that will review your blog for free, and you get free backlinks from these places and also a bit of traffic too. So, here is the list of sites to get backlinks with for free (all PR’s listed are as of early May 2008):
BlogsRater.com
This simple review site is a PR 3. You can add your blog and write a quick summary of it, and get a backlink back to your site. Then, if you review and rate other blogs, your blog has a chance to be featured on their front page.
InspiritBlog.com
You can get a free review of your site from this PR 4 blog. Just go to the page I linked to above, and leave a comment for him, and he will review your site.
Web-Reviewers.com
This PR 3 site uses a 5 star system to rank websites. They give an in depth review of your site. If you might get your feelings hurt by a bad review, then don’t use this site. But, you can get free backlinks, and some tips on how to improve your site’s content and design.
Bloggeries.com
This PR 5 blog, with a very popular forum for webmasters, will do a review of your site. The reviews are free, but because of their high demand, it may be a little while until your blog gets reviews. But, you might as well queue up now, and enjoy the nice surprise backlink a little bit down the road. You can pay $50 to get an expedited review, but I suggest just going for the free one.
Untwisted Vortex Reviews
This is a PR 3 blog, a subdomain of a much larger blog, that focuses on doing free reviews. The queue takes a little bit of time to move up, but it is worth it down the road for some nice link juice on a solid domain. The queue is only 8 people deep… when I signed up it was like 15 people deep or something, so you can get in at a good time as of this writing.
BlogsWeLuv.com
This is a PR 3 reviews blog that uses a slightly different concept than the rest. They give you 10 questions to answer about your blog, in sort of an interview style, so you can kind of break your site down to them. Then, if they think your blog is interesting, they’ll do an in depth review of it. Even if you don’t get chosen, the 10 questions still provides a backlink. If you get chosen for a big review, then you can get more backlinks to your site!
OurBlogReview.com
This site will also give you free reviews with dofollow backlinks back to your site.
Hopefully you enjoyed these link building tips… go out there and get your site reviewed and get more backlinks!

TheMillionDollarPlan’s last blog post..Why getting a job is a bad idea?
Reviews are indeed a great way of building backlinks. The best thing about it is that its give and take stuff. If you’re linking to a blog in a review, it is quite likely that the other blogger would link back to you talking about the review. This helps the specific review-post at your blog and also the home page.
This is one of the ways that Inspirit now enjoys Google PR 4.
The to-be-reviewed queue at Inspirit is getting huge with 60+ blogs awaiting a review. This can be attributed to my dormancy due to practical tests and exams that keep happening all the time. Its going to be like that till I am done away with my 2nd semester final exams by mid-june. I hope to catch up after that. Thanks for the shout-out
I will be sure to hit ALL of thm for an interview, thanks!
I was thinking of giving freebies to email subscribers.

Commentkahuna is a small downloadable program, which I found from John Cow’s blog. After download, you have to enter a keyword into it, and it claims to search for the blog posts for that keyword from the dofollow blogs. Then you can choose, where to comment and thus earn a backlink. The benefit is that, the backlink you earned is from a blog which is in the related niche as you, and so it is more important.
But, when I used it, I found that the many of the blogs, which were found by CommentKahuna for me, were actually carrying a rel=”external nofollow” attribute, which is as good as nofollow. So it was useless for me, although many of the John Cow visitors have praised it highly
Bizliner’s last blog post..Using keywords in your website
@Bizliner - I was very confused by it also. I emailed them and was told the following:
“When you choose the “No follow” option, you will get the following in your list of blogs:
1. Sites that DO use nofollow will be greyed out
2. Sites that DO NOT use nofollow will be pre-checked (a checkmark beside them)
Note: The software can only detect ‘nofollow’ if it is already present in the
html, so if there is not already a nofollow comment posted, the software would not
detect this.”
Keep the no follow box checked and make sure there is at least 1 comment on the blog.

Not Sure I will use that tool again. It says you submit comments on dofollows but you come across sites with no comment box. I really wasted some 30 odd minutes using it.
Yeah thanks heaps for the list, will check them out now hey…

Your info was very helpful to a newbie
This is a new website yet it already has PR5. It is on close Beta version at the moment meaning that you can not log in unless you are referred by someone.
You can try
The concept is very simple. You earn Qassia dollars for submitting articles, referring people and voting for other’s articles. You can promote your website with a free backlink “dofollow” on each article. The more Qassia dollars you earn the closer to the top you can be. Your website will be featured on the home page if you are among the richest in Qassia.
Good list.
I have read that any way to do this is to do a review
of some business or their product.
Then to ask for a link to your web page.
Your information help me a lot with my site.
Thanks!
