					<description><![CDATA[Albert, 

Many recent claims talk about discrediting blog networks on Google&#039;s part by removing pages from the index in bulk. This would mean it would discredit the domain, not the link. Anyways, that&#039;s besides the point. You&#039;re claim is unsubstantiated. We aren&#039;t a spam network we are building legit blogs that target human traffic. This is similar to a guest post community service. 

You are probably thinking about possible footprints Google uses to identify the big blog networks. Spinning, similar post-types, registrations, etc. -- This gave me another good opportunity to explain what is different with LO, so I want to thank you for that opportunity.]]></description>

Google will know that it&#039;s a &#039;network&#039; and immediately discount the value of any links created.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hey Mike, 

Thanks for the valid concerns. I&#039;m going to take a crack at addressing all of them here. 

1) We have an open network where the public can submit their blogs, but we differentiate it from our private.

2) A submission is worth 1 post, we should make this clearer. We are not going to duplicate your content everywhere, we dont want duplicate content, nor should you. We do let spun content through for up to 5 posts. But it should be high quality spun that ends up with a final version that people can not tell it was spun.

3) We need to mature our network more and add to it more. Like we say above its a lot of effort to build a quallity blog network. But, another is the stats that say .89 pr take into account the Public network too. We will adjust that.

4) We feel $19.95 for 5 posts is a good value. That will grow in value as our network matures. At this point some of the niches have more value than others.

5) I&#039;ve never used Traffic Kaboom so if it&#039;s working for you I think that&#039;s great. From what I can see it looks like it drip feeds your content across thousands of blogs they gathered. We are differnet because we believe duplicate content is bad for the internet. We don&#039;t want to have your article duplicated to thousands of blogs across the internet. I don&#039;t see this anywhere but do they differentiate by niche? Because, that&#039;s another thing we focus on. Being niche related. We want your your high quality content placed in relavant places.

6) Thanks for your great comment, it lets us know we need to do a lot more to educate our visitors. Our service shouldnt be confusing, and it sounds like our presentation is. For this I want to thank you and offer you a free month to try our service. Please email us at support@linkorbit.com for a promotional code for a free month of service.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I signed up,  but I&#039;m a little confused about the whole thing.  Apparently you can add blogs to the network,  that would make it an open blog network.

They don&#039;t give any real information about why their network is better.  They don&#039;t tell you how many posts a submission will get,  or much else.

The average blog pr is .89  That would mean they have a lot of PR 0 sites in the system.  I use Traffic Kaboom now,  I don&#039;t know what their average pr is,  but I&#039;m pretty sure it&#039;s above 1.

It&#039;s a little pricey too for the amount of posts you get.  $19.95 for a 5 post trial.  And $49 a month for 25 posts a month.

I think I&#039;m gonna hold out on this one.]]></description>
