100% relevant to site we’re promoting.

An old site – pre 2000 is best.

Swimming in quality inbound links to the site from a variety of old, established sites (for the purposes of assessing a link buy inbound links from standard directories such as splut.com do not count).

Labouring under multiple listings on Dmoz, Yahoo, Wikipedia, .edu and other “safe” sites.

Offering permanent link buys and willing to negotiate on price.

A site owned by someone who has several sites that would be ideal for our other sites saving us time and effort.

Designed in a search engine friendly manner and the page we’re buying the link on is well interlinked throughout the site, especially from the homepage.

Not given to linking to anyone and everyone so there are no other outbound links on the page, or very few (internal links are fine).

Content rich and our link is placed inside the content as part of the text, not buried on the side or the bottom.

Now I’m a happy link buyer.
