The good
If you sign up for 3WayLinks, you will spend about 15 minutes total on building your links. All the rest is automated. The 15 minutes you do spend will be to set up your .php link or resources page. It must match your sites header and footer.

Now, don’t freak out, there is a great user contributed video that outlines exactly how to grab the code and make your php page. You don’t have to know html or anything. I can put it all together in about 10 minutes now. Here is my 3WayLinks.net resources page.

From there, your site will be up for review. It takes only 2-3 days to get an answer back. After approval, about 8 links are added a day until you reach 250. You can watch your rankings improve through their desktop rank checker. At a single glance, you can see how all of your sites on the 3WayLinks system are ranking.

On the receiving end, you will have links out from your resource page. These two are added at a rate of about 8 links a day. So, you are never really lopsided on your links.

Also, you can add up to 50 domains to your one 3WayLinks.net account.

For those of you who have been reading and still wonder what 3 way links are, here’s an excellent explanation from Jonathan Ledger himself:

“in a 3-way link setup, site A links to site B, site B links to site C, and site C links to site A … This is where the power of this system lies.”

The power Jonathan means is that Google will only see each link as a one-way link and give you full ranking value for it.

Never Break the 3 Way Link Chain

But, does it work?

Absolutely. I watched a site that was extremely nichy go from about 50 page views a week to about 500 page views a day. The one thing I changed was adding a 3WayLinks.net resource page.

The bad
Not necessarily bad, but annoying to me. I understand the reasoning, but was bummed I was rejected. Here’s the story.

I wanted to do a friendly little site for astrology love signs. You know, what sign works with what other sign. When I tried to add my site into the network, I was refused because astrology is considered a religion.

Really?

So, for all of you out there who are into non-family-friendly sites, get your links somewhere else. Including astrologers. According to Jonathan Ledger, no adult, gambling, warez, hate, or religious sites are allowed in the network.

You also have to have at least 2 pages indexed in Google before your site will be considered. I usually put a site together, upload it, and within a few days, am already indexed.

The Ugly
OK, I’m not gonna lie. The subscription is pricey. $47 a month gets you access, by my simple math, to 12,500 quality one way links (if you use all 50 sites allowed in the network at 250 links per site). Do I think it’s worth it?

Well, building reciprocal links is hard, and time-consuming. I have spent 3-4 hours a day sending out slews of requests for reciprocal links and got zip back in return. My time is worth money. For about $1.60 a day, I will gladly pay for a subscription to 3WayLinks.net and have my links managed for me. This gives me time to think of more profitable investments. And writing blogs like this one!
