Search Engine Optimization
After researching the number one competitor of a keyword I would like to rank highly in, I noticed they had 1,000+ back links from a single domain. They are paying to have their text link on the bottom of every page on this domains website.
I contacted this website and they want $99.00 a month to add my text link to the bottom of every page on their website. They have thousands of pages and a lot of them are high in PR.
So my questions are:
Is it worth $99.00 to have my link on a website like this?
Does it help or hurt SEO since all links come from the same domain?
The number 2 position under this keyword only has a few hundred back links so would it be possible that I would get that position having over a thousand backlinks from this one domain?
I do understand that there is more to SEO than backlinks, but I am just trying to get a feel if this is worth the money or not.
I appreciate any help I can get.
Thanks,

Search engine optimization
Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via "natural" ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results. Typically, the earlier (or higher) a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, and industry-specific vertical search engines. This gives a web site web presence.As an Internet marketing strategy, SEO considers how search engines work and what people search for. Optimizing a website primarily involves editing its content and HTML and associated coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and to remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines.
