25 inbound links from sites ranking Pagerank 0 and 1?
 

Using anchor text, how much would that help your Google rankings? This isn't a link exchange, just pure inbound links using anchor text. How much would that help?

Depends on your competition..

Competition is pretty much non-existent in this case. It's for a client that sells to a very, VERY exclusive niche'. I'd rather not say what the niche' is either. :1orglaugh

going to get your site banned with that kind of link power.

with power comes responsibility.

be careful.

it will grow your site pennis 5 inches!

jk but it will help a lot if you have small competition on kw targeting, in other options it will help less but still counts a bit

No doubt. I have spent many, many minutes in Google's sandbox so I know the rules of the game. I did a mainstream website for my cousin and got it ranked so high so fast it was yanked from Google for almost a year. He wasn't too happy with me. Even funnier, he tried to call Google to complain. So it was worth it. :thumbsup

There's too many variables that go into whether or not a backlink is going to be of any real benefit to be able to say. All you can really do is get the backlinks, ping the pages or something so that google will find them quickly and then wait and see...

total ban or just penalty?

Hardcore sandbox. It eventually got indexed and now ranks pretty well for his industry (pressure washing) in local searches. It was actually indexed after about 3 months, but just never showed up in any searches.

When dealing with new domains I use the principle of 2's. 2 much 2 fast 2 bad. SEO is like anal sex...you gotta ease it in and use a lot of lube.
