Is Imautomater still effective?
Just wondering if Imautomater is still effective, Post-Panda? Does this type of backlinking still help?
I think a lot of the links it gives you go to pretty bad bookmarking sites that Google rarely or doesn't crawl. Try starting Tumblr or Blogspot blogs to shadow your Hubs and get backlinks that way. Tumblr is easy because you can just reblog others until you want to write a post.
Great question. I don't know. I just starting using Imautomater because it was free. I don't really understand SEO, backlinking, adwords, and others just yet - hard to find time to study it out, but I figured Imautomater was a good place to start.
I have been using IMAutomator; if you see visits on your Google report that come from sites with long addresses and from emails as well as from other social sites, they are probably from IMAutomator. I have been getting about 3% of my visits from it.
Shetoldme,RedGage,and Traffup are free sites where you can post links.
Shetoldme (100%) and RedGage (60%-40% split) also pay you for your ppc's
As far as good backlinks; Shetoldme is ranked highly by Google, RedGage is ranked OK, and Traffup is a close third.
Its still works, but to get more than 15 backlinks, you have to pay. I agree with LuisEGonzalez.

I just wondered if anyone backlinked their backlinks, like putting Shetoldme links on Reddit for example. I'm seriously running outta ideas of how to get traffic.

As per the advice of many Hubbers I’ve tried to sign up on Shetoldme, but can’t seem to find their sign up button / page anywhere. A while ago I saw another Hubber comment on experiencing the same problem. Does anyone know what’s going on there? Thanks to all.

Having spent some time backlinking today I think I have come across a great opportunity for generating more backlinks- or at least through Shetoldme if you use that site. I already have backlinks to my previous hub url's through shetoldme however out of curiosity I tried to use one of the new urls...
