Court/Mark,

I don’t look up the links but I do tend to focus on the PR stuff, how often do they get up-dated? and how much traffic does the google local results take away?

They submit an article to an article directory, and then two days later they're trying to find it in Google and Yahoo. They don't find it, so they link it didn't work. They trade links, then try to find it in Yahoo. They can't, so they think it didn't work. It's a good way to make your head explode. TONS of people do that.

That way I can remember where they are and I don't have to go looking for them. I like to keep track of the ones I’ve built in a spreadsheet.
