Is Linklicious Good?

[Nerdie]

Has anybody used linklicious to index/dripfeed their backlinks? If you have used them, how were the results? I have been considering purchasing a membership for a while now.

In order to get SEO benefits from the backlinks that you have created for your site, it is very important that these links are cached by the crawlers of the major search engines especially Google. And those links, which are not cached automatically then sites like linklicious is used to ping Google crawlers to crawl and cache that particular site.
I have used the free version of the site and it worked well. So if opt for paid versions, surely you will get better benefits.

They guarantee when you create new backlinks that the links will actually get crawled. The problem some webmasters have sometimes is they create/purchase a lot of backlinks but those never get crawled. Linklicious makes sure they get crawled by the search engines.

I'd just go with the free version ... links get indexed faster but still look natural.

I'll try them out, does this get you more members?

Not directly. But more crawled backlinks may get you higher in the rankings, which will get you more traffic, and ultimately more members.

It does, a quote taken from https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66356

The following are examples of link schemes which can negatively impact a site's ranking in search results:

Buying or selling links that pass PageRank. This includes exchanging money for links, or posts that contain links; exchanging goods or services for links; or sending someone a “free” product in exchange for them writing about it and including a link
Excessive link exchanges ("Link to me and I'll link to you") or partner pages exclusively for the sake of cross-linking
Large-scale article marketing or guest posting campaigns with keyword-rich anchor text links
Using automated programs or services to create links to your site

I wouldn't even bother with such link building tools. In the end the only way to fix a blacklisted site is to create a new site. Be very careful using such services.. They may benefit short term.. 6 months etc but look at Interflora for example they fell off the face of the earth for terms they originally ranked high for because they had been manipulating page rank links.

I'm very hesitant about using drip feed or backlinking services as it produces an abnormally large pool of backlinks. While some sites have enough credibility to be linked to (such as Coca Cola, Macys, Amazon etc and other well known brands/sites); most sites will never have more than a few dozen (or if lucky a few hundred) editorial or freely given backlinks.
