What to check before you buy
Exchange platforms match site owners who want to trade links. Excessive exchanges are named in Google's spam policies, so volume and relevance decide the risk.
- Trade only with sites you would be glad to link to anyway.
- Avoid direct A to B and B to A swaps at scale, which leave an obvious pattern.
- Check the partner site's traffic and outbound links like any paid placement.
