Thread: If you buy linking service what should you think about?

If you buying linking services what is the most important think to think about?
I had a few offers and some offering loads of links in forum and that looks very spammy to me.
Any other ideas?

of course the home page will be linked by me.

ehh yes i got that checked already but some fail even in that. I was promised + PR 3 links and i use IBP to check and most of them had 0. Now lets see what they have to say about that.
