I was first contacted by Linkstar back in early January about advertising on one of my sites. I’ve received similar emails in the past which I’ve actually ignored. I decided to reply to this one because it was clear they’d actually bothered to review the site and had written a personal email to me.

The email came from sarah@linkstar.co.uk and after a quick google, I found that they had a history of purchasing advertising, some good but a couple bad.. this made me a bit nervous.

After a few emails back and forth, I was able to agree a price with Sarah and she sent over the advert for me to put on my website. I had to put the advert up before payment, suposedly this is to comply with their internal guidelines. I figured that if they don’t pay then I could just remove the advert.

After placing the advert for a fitness website (exercise routines etc) I emailed Sarah back and asked for the payment by Paypal (who want’s the hassle of checks now days!). Got the money through in the next couple of days with a note ‘Payment from Linkstar.co.uk for advert’ !

I have read both positive and negative posts about Linkstar and can confirm they are legit.
