    I was recently approached by a new SEO company for a reciprocal link trade. They proposed putting my website’s link on a page that is 3 clicks (or sub-pages) away from the homepage.

    The first click away from the homepage has no text outside of the text that is inside the 8 links to sub-pages.

    The second click has no text outside of two links called, Links1 and Links2.

    The third click has a handful of links to SEO companies.

    I’d like some opinions as to whether Google, Yahoo! and MSN will go three sub-pages deep and actually find the SEO company links that are 3 clicks away from the homepage?

    Link scam or not?

    Find some words that are unique to the page of interest, then do a:

    site:www.domain.com the key words

    search on Google and see if that page is indexed.

    Additionally look at the Google cache to see what Google sees of the page.
