So basically I have just gave up and am working on bettering all of my other sites and building more sites and currently looking for a reputable yet affordable SEO company to help with those. Seems like reputable and affordable don't go hand in hand in SEO though but I am still trying. It really sucks though because how exactly does some one who is not an SEO expert know what services are good? I mean on these forums alone I see tons of link offers all the time but have no clue which one to get or avoid, lol.
