So its happening to me too.
2 weeks ago I logged into my GWT and saw around 900 links, but all suddenly I logged today and saw a lot of crap going on, with 3k+ links even in China! I also checked the impressions on Google and going down again... Google hasn't been treating me well lately, up...

Yeah you are right. The problem at the moment is that google is getting really strict about the spam policies and doing link exchange became really risky for new webmasters who are not totally aware of the problems...

Hi,
thanks for the useful tips. As you know, when you start on this business people is not rushing to link you back. I'm able to generate some unique content / quality articles in exchange of back-links. If there's anyone who would like to do a fair exchange, knowing that I wont be buying...
