1) Too many links in a bunch on a new site can get you exiled to Google’s “Sandbox”, i.e. effectively banned. I had this happen on 3 sites not so very long ago and the memory still smarts.

If the link accumulation for a new site appears “unnatural” then look out. Mature sites are better “trusted” so you can take more liberties.

2) Adding links and then removing them is as bad or worse than never having them. Removal of a link is a vote of “no confidence”.

It’s safer and more effective to add links progressively at a steady pace over a long period.

I use a discreet “indirect” link exchange service that takes care not to leave footprints and it brings plenty of one-way links and traffic provided my anchor text keywords are sensibly chosen.
