I'm an SEO. I build links all the time. SEOs like me don't give a rat's patoot if some guy throws a hissyfit about other SEOs contacting him for backlinks. Whenever I do outreach, people reply with a quote on how much it costs. This is business, and I'm willing to pay. I agree with him that those wanting a backlink for free are parasite moochers. But the reality of the situation is that you can build great content and nobody will ever visit it if you don't build at least a few backlinks to yourself. Build it and they will come? Show me where, because it's certainly not in SEO. I still gotta eat. So paid backlinks it is. Troy can execute his evil plan. It'll fail. You think you're gonna get rankings & traffic from just including a few terms on an otherwise unrelated blogpost? It isn't 2005 in SEO anymore. If only it were!
