Benefits of reciprocal directory links?
 

Hello optimizers I need to know that how the reciprocal directory links are beneficial more than regular links?:confused:

Perhaps backlink from quality site. Else low quality reciprocal link is high risk, as it is easy to detect by search engine.

Link exchanging is a Google source to generate quality back links. because both website owner exchange their links with the intention of benefits.

Agreed with "kinglee" the reciprocal links from low priority sites do generate Risk. Try to avoid low priority sites and do-follow the quality sites for having back links.
As my personal concern Reciprocal Links are not applicable to me, all i do believe in One-way link process.

one-way links are much better than reciprocals, but reciprocal links do add at least some value to the overall SEO plan.
One-ways are usually placed on content pages that are actually being read on a semi-regular basis. Reciprocals are usually placed on nearly worthless pages consisting merely of outbound links that are hidden deep within the site structure.

Pointing incoming reciprocal links to the tertiary pages of your site allows these pages to build PageRank

excellent post thanks

The main benefits of reciprocal linking is that it will help your web site for the first positioning and to get more traffic on your website.

nice post but not able to understand still weather reciprocal kinks are good or bad.

Reciprocal directory links will help to boost the huge amount of the traffic on the website which will help to gain good rank in the search engine but for that relative and quality link exchange should necessary.
