Hi Michele,
I tried out your 30 minute backlinks and it’s awesome. For one of my clients I got them the number 1 ranking at Google and 2 thru 10 is other listings for what it’s about. They now own the first page real estate for that phrase.
Thanks
@Small Business Web Design: Owning the whole first page is awesome! Thanks for sharing your success!
