Why Manual Link Building Will Never Be Obsolete

November 7, 2015 by Eric Ward

Why Manual Link Building Will Never Be Obsolete

I recently read an article on FORBES.com by Jayson DeMers titled “SEO Practices That Will Become Obsolete By The End Of 2016“. The author is someone I read and respect, but he made the claim that in 2016 manual link building will become obsolete.

Wrong, nope, not even close. Manual link building will never be obsolete.

To read my full rebuttal, please head over to SearchEngineLand, where their editorial team was kind enough to run my post in its entirety. You will find it at

(Author note: Jayson and I have communicated and he was kind enough to make some changes to his column. That was a fine thing to do, as he doesn’t owe me a thing and could have told me to kiss off. Thank you @Jayson)
