Best Link Building Strategies That Work!

 best link building strategies that workYour link building strategies are one of the most crucial tools to employ when marketing a brand new blog idea. It has been shown Blogs cannot survive on content alone in the vast ocean that is now the internet.

I would like to share with you a article I found about some of a advanced link building strategy that you can employ with all of your blogs….. John

Link Building Strategies for Your Site

You might have heard of the terms “positive SEO” and “negative SEO” which are becoming a lot more prevalent with the algorithm changes that Google has recently made. Google implemented these changes to eliminate limited-content blogs, to put it nicely.

The link building strategies that I utilize will help to nullify the impact on your site if you have been part of one of the unfortunate blog networks to recently be shut down.

To clarify, blog or article networks still hold a place in your link building strategy.  However they should no longer be relied upon to serve as your only option for your advanced link building strategy.

As part of my link building strategies, I focus on a number of article directories, press release sites, and established high page rank sites within my niche.

Part of My Advanced Link Building  Strategy – Buy Aged Domains

I developed several of my own blogs with domains that I have purchased at GoDaddy after finding available high page rank domains with expired domains.

I highly suggest that technique, but it definitely is not required. You should do this with your new blog as you can add a aged domain URL to a  brand spanking new blog for not more than the cost of an annual domain registration fee. This is optional and is the only component with an associated cost.

First, I will generally spin my articles for free by using Content Professor which is the quickest and easiest spinning tool that I have found on the market place. I am somewhat cautious with spinning tools. I have noticed that there is duplicate content all over the web.

When you think about huge news stories that break from AP or Reuters, they don’t spin their content and it sure does not seem to affect them at all.  However, it does not take long to create a spun article and be able to submit a different version with every submission. Spinning is a key element to my link building strategies.

PRLog.   This is a free press release site. I submit just about every single article I write to them for publication. I receive more traffic referrals from PRLog than any other site I use. I use this as part of my link building strategies because you are allowed three backlinks per article which I exploit on every submission.  I have had several of my posts on PRLog rank #1or #2 in search results after posting with them.

Article Directories. Amazines, EzineArticles, GoArticles, ArticleBlast, and Technorati are the main five article directories in which I submit my articles.  Each one of these article directories allow you to include backlinks to your site. I receive the most referral traffic from EzineArticles.  However my articles on Amazines receive more views than any other directory so it is a bigger part of my link building strategies.

I also have quite a few other basic WordPress blogs that I’ve created in my own blog group in which I’ve set up RSS feeds so that each time I publish an article on my money sites, a copy is also published on my other sites. These other sites are not the highest page rank sites, but it does give me more pages that point back to my site. I have noticed the sites have slow but sure moving up the page. This is a nice addition to my link building strategies.

Lastly, I spend time to find established, high traffic websites that are in my same niche to submit my articles. The only sites I will submit to, are ones where I’m allowed to contribute on my own schedule, not based on their requirements; I must be permitted to have backlinks to my blog; and I don’t want to exchange links as part of my link building strategy.

No offense to anyone else but I’m not looking to build their sites any more than necessary. I am already submitting my content for publication on their site which I feel is a fair exchange. When I search through my backlinks by using Domain-Pop (again for free), I regularly find that the niche sites I submit to contain many more backlinks to my site than compared to the amount of articles I have actually submitted to them. Check out our Blog Tools for free, quality blogging tools that I have personally use.

Optional Backlinking Building Strategies Component:  As I touched on earlier, blog networks are becoming less and less stable with Google cracking down on many of them.  One of the more advanced blog networks that appears to be unaffected by these recent changes is ArticleRanks.

You can either purchase credits to submit articles or add PR1 or higher blogs for ArticleRanks to publish content on in exchange for submission credits.  As part of my link building strategies, I choose this option as it costs about $10 per year for a domain compared to about $360 per year for the amount of submission credits that I would want. I think this makes the most sense, don’t you agree?

I have been able to implement these link building strategies with several successful blogs and had them rank on the first page of Google search results within 6 weeks with my quickest occurring in 8 days! (that was fun) While I’m always fine tuning my link building strategies, this is my standard protocol with every article that I publish. Thanks for taking the time to read about my link building strategy. I truly hope you find it helpful for your own blogging adventure.  If you have another strategy that works for you, I’d love to try it out.  Until next time, happy blogging!

I personally use many of the same link building strategies but I have not used the particular tools suggested here. Visit this site for more great advanced link building strategy blog ideas!

Deep Link Tips and Tricks

deep link imageWelcome to Deep Link Tips and Tricks

The nice thing about using a deep link with these tips and tricks is that it is really just about a shift in your mindset.

TIP: Links that go directly to a site’s interior paged will enhance user usability because the links are not generic but strongly related to the users’ search goal.

  • Email signatures. We all put our homepage address on a lot of our bio type data. Any place you would put your home page URL, make a change and instead use a deep link to an internal page that will add value to your email readers. This won’t give you SEO juice, but it should send some free traffic.
  • Writing Guest posts. When you write a guest post don’t link to your home page. Rather, deep link to a relevant page in your site. Using a deep link will reduce the amount of bounces your getting.
  • Blog Comments. It is natural to leave a home page address in the website form on blogs when you leave a comment. A better trick is to leave a deep link to an internal page that is relevant to that audience. You should get traffic from this link if you wrote a intelligent comment.
  • Forums. Forums or anyplace you leave a comment, manually enter a URL that will drive traffic to an internal page instead of your homepage.
  • Social Publishing and Networking Sites. Your next tactic is to use social publishing sites and networking sites.  Again deep link to internal pages on your site. When you create accounts, link to a relevant internal page. Choose a page that is relevant to that audience
  • Article Syndication. Anytime you develop an article with a byline for syndication, choose a relevant deep link to a page that will enhance the user experience.
TIP: You need to determine which page you want the potential customer to visit. Every page has a URL for that specific page.

Deep Linking Back Door Visitor Problems

  • Where is the user…When a visitor comes in through an internal page back door link give them good clues about where they are in your site. You can do this by positioning a logo and a one-click route to the home page.
  •  Where else can the user go…Once your visitor reads the relevant information on that internal deep link page, you need to give them options to explore more of your site. Give them a list of related articles or a list of popular articles.
  •  Where has the user been…When you have a internal back door, you need to realize that your visitors may not have followed a scripted path and seen everything you’d hope they would. Make sure you put an email newsletter subscribe box on every page. Also make sure relevant information is always available for them to click.
TIP: Deep linking is beneficial by getting users to their preferred page and information quickly.

Step eight starts with IMPROVE SEARCH ENGINE RANKING

The Fundamentals of SEO Link Building

fundamentals back link building for seo link building

I want to share this great article I came across on the fundamentals of SEO link building. When it  comes to back link building you should read every article you see out there.

If there is a part of search engine optimization that is important (SEO) with today’s net, it is SEO link building. Professionals in search engine optimization know that the secret of most of the sites that have high rankings on Google and other search engines, is that they have many credible websites linking to them. They understand SEO link building.

High Quality Back Link Building

When the search engine crawls, it looks at many factors. The use of keywords within the text in your pages along with the contents of your website’s meta tags. These two areas are important and you need to pay attention to them. Now, Google has let us know that getting high quality links to a site is the most important key and has a lot to do where you appear in the search engine result page. This is because search engines believe that if other sites are linking to yours, it must mean that your site has some relevant, useful information for the searcher. If you are familiar with Penguin and Panda then you understand that relevant information is what Google’s goal has always been for the searchers.

How do you do proper SEO link building for your website

It is simple right…..just create great content and others will link to it. If you have written content for a while, you know that getting links this way is not all that easy. But writing quality content is actually the best and possibly the only, acceptable method for SEO link building. But let’s be realistic, developing and writing great content requires lots of time and effort. And it takes time before other website owners start discovering your content and linking to it, if at all.

This common difficulty has kept website owners on the hunt, looking at ways of getting the desired, needed links. Most have found there are two approaches that they can use:

How to Get High Quality Backlinks

  • They can choose to use, do it yourself SEO link building 
  • They can pay someone else to do it for you.

Let’s start by looking at how you can do SEO link building yourself.  There are many ways of doing this, more than we can discuss in this one article. The most popular methods include article marketing, blog marketing, social bookmarking, use of directories and posting in forums. Sound familiar?

The basic idea behind the above methods is that you are creating content, writing comments or posts that contain relevant information about your website and posting them in different venues. Once posted, some form of an anchor text will link to a relevant page on site. Two things can happen here. One, gets you a little added traffic when someone follows the link. Two, gets you a backlink to your site which is your goal. In the past, these methods were good but with the search engines we have, many just do not work as well. As search engine algorithms change, many experts feel the search engine will stop considering many of these SEO link building methods as being powerful enough to influence rank.

Having discovered how important quality back links are to websites rankings, there are many companies that sell SEO link building services. This segment of the market continues to grow because the experts know that everyone will need quality backlinks.

You can use the services of these companies in your SEO link building without much problem, well unless you are like me, and have trouble with the amount they charge.

SEO Link Building Companies Offer:

  • Diversity of backlinks, with anchor text variation and deep link building. Why? Because they know it is the key to staying on Google’s good side.
  • Offering for a fee, fresh, highly relevant content that is added to your site on a regular basis. Why? Google demands it. If you don’t have this, then it’s going to be tough for your site to rank.
  • Track On-Site SEO - Know which pages on your site are fully optimized, and which pages need improvement.
  • Track Off Site SEO - Monitor how many backlinks each URLs has, and check the growth as they run your SEO campaign.

To be a successful website developer you need to  use the trusted service of LinkVana. This service builds powerful link wheels around your site using high PR sites in the wheels. The links that are created in the wheels are permanent back links to your site!

Another great option is SEnuke X which is an automated tool that helps your build backlinks on autopilot.

In conclusion, it is clear that SEO link building in 2013 and beyond calls for a creative approach. There is also no doubt that great content on your website is crucial if you are to get merit based links, which Google and other major search engines believe to be most credible.

Web Master SUMMARY:

Hope you enjoyed  the guest blog. If you have gotten to the point that your traffic and ranking are not bringing you the needed traffic for conversions–then you need to make a change. You need to decide how bad you want to succeed and to draw in revenue.

The Important Keys to Link Building

link building imageNatural link building, natural link building, natural link building……okay do you get what I am trying to say. Natural looking links are a big key to link building.

Google is penalizing websites that have unnatural links.

Natural Anchor Text is One of the Keys to Link Building – One thing Penguin is looking for is unnatural anchor text. To have anchor text that is natural looking, you have to vary your text. Use the actual keywords you are targeting no more than 50% of the time. Vary your link building text by using your “domain name”, more “long tail keywords”, longer sentences with your keyword in it, just general terms such as “read more” or “click here”. I think you get the idea.

Make a list………

I make up a quick check off list of anchor text that I what to use on a site. I list my keywords then under the keywords I put other varied terms. This is a reminder to me to vary my anchor text when link building.

Link Building Tips Using Anchor Text

Find High Quality Links - of course they are harder to get but worth so much more. Make sure your links a re relevant to your site. We discuss this later on.

Watch the Outbound Links - when I see a page with a lot of outbound links. I stay away. The page has to share the “link juice” with all those other links. How much juice are you getting from them?

The Number of Links Needed – a simple way to put it, you will need more links than the top site on the page to knock them out. This is not always the case. I have moved ahead of a site with a lot more links. I assumed my SEO was better. Just remember that sites will be making strong efforts to retake the lead. Keep link building.

Link to different pages - If you are writing articles, making comments and joining in forum discussions then you can control your link building. Links coming into your site need to go to different pages, not just your home page. See out post on ‘deep linking’

 Another Area is the Link Mix - look for different areas to get your links from. Comments, forums, social media, article writing, link partners, your own site, can all add link juice if done naturally.

Check Your LinksIt is important to make sure your links are found by Google. Many marketers believe that as soon as they create a link, Google will find it. Google’s bots don’t get to every site every day. To check out if your link building article has been discovered, make sure you check out the URL the publisher sends you for the article. If you don’t see it after a couple of days, Google may not have discovered it yet. You can use a free service to ping it. Contact the publisher.

Tip:  Google checks out the social sites like Facebook everyday.

Don’t Sweat the “no follow” Links - search engines normally don’t share the juice from the “no follow” style of links. This is okay. Again we are working on looking natural. You need some no follow links to look natural for Google. The most common no follow link are comments on sites. With comments you might not get the juice but you can get some free traffic if you make a quality comment. So read the article, make a good comment and have your url in your signature.

Deep Linking - a good way to have Google see your links as natural is to use deep links. If you have heard or use deep linking make sure you check out some articles on the subject.

STEP SEVEN CONTINUES  with DEEP LINKING

 PLEASE feel free to post a relevant comment or question below. I will be delighted to help you with any question I can……JOHN

Deep Linking for Sales

Featured

deep linking imageWhat is Deep Linking?

Deep linking is making a hyperlink that points to a specific page or image on a website, instead of that website’s main or homepage. Deep linking is a simple way to improve your rank results for your website. Deep linking will help you increase your conversion rate and improve the experience for visitors by allowing them easy access to the relevant information that they are seeking.

The problem with most generic linking is, it takes the user to a homepage. Most sites have a message they would like to share with the visitor. We all know that SEO experts recommend that you use targeted keywords. Then shouldn’t we use deep linking to direct the targeted visitor to a target information and conversation page to solve their problem?

Why Should You Deep Link?

It has been shown that most marketers have problems getting a visitor from a homepage to a product page. This is responsible for around 30% of failures in getting a site visitor to purchase a product. By deep linking to a specific product page, an marketer is able to eliminate most problems associated with navigating their website for the user. With deep linking you can take your visitor directly to the information that they are seeking. These targeted visitors from search engines are strong potential customers. Getting the user to the relevant informational page can real increase the chances of converting the visitor into a sale.

If you only link to the homepage, you are forcing the visitor to make several more clicks to find the product that they want. Most won’t do it. So, it is far better to make it easy for the visitor and send them directly or very close to the product page.

When developing your deep linking strategies for SEO remember that the user may not have seen the information on your previous pages. You can use the “nonindex” meta tag for pages that you don’t want your back door user visiting on their own if you prefer. I just make sure they have links on the backdoor page to my money pages.

Deep Linking Internal Pages

Experienced marketers that understand link building know that it all starts with linking internal pages. You link internal pages to other internal pages…and you get other sites to link to those internal pages. But few of them actually understand that the tactics of deep linking can reduce visitor bounce rate while improving page views, time on your site and even subscriber numbers.

Lets say you have a fairly established site out there with 100 anchor text links. 70% of your links are going to your homepage. 30% of your anchor text links are going to the rest of your pages and posts. The problem with this is, you have only one homepage and a lot more deeper internal pages. If your homepage is like most, it supplies a message and some information about what you offer. It may not provide the direct information the searcher is looking for but would take some more reading and another click or two. Many will bounce off your site before then.

If they don’t read and click, then they will never land on your internal pages. They feel that they are not getting the relevant content they are looking for. They abandon the homepage and your bounce rate goes up.

As more and more deep links  for SEO are developed, users will learn to use them more to locate specific products or solutions rather than starting at the home page. So doesn’t it make sense we reverse the ratio and have 70% of our anchor text developed for deep linking.

Sending a user to a deep page will offer them more specific targeted information for their search than the homepage. Your homepage can not rank for every keyword you optimize. That is why we have other pages.

 Why Deep Linking is Important

  •  Raise the Google Authority of the Entire Site. Let’s say your goal was to optimize and send traffic to your homepage. (don’t do this)  If all the stars aligned right, you might have a homepage with a really high Google authority ranking. The rest of your pages would not have good ranking at all. When Google’s search engine crawls your entire site the poor-authority pages would drag down your homepage authority rank. Deep linking for SEO can help you increase your entire site’s authority rank.
  • Increase Your Site’s Relevancy. I think you can agree that you can not optimize your homepage for every single keyword phrase. If you tried the homepage would be very large in content or very small with very limited keywords. A site of any size at all will need to use internal pages. When a published page contains targeted relevant keywords in it’s meta data (URL, title tag, image Alt) and the body content, the search engines will crawl that page. The search engine indexes each page based upon the optimized relevant keywords on that page. The keyword is relevant for that page and if you deep link to it with a keyword-rich anchor text from another established page Google will consider the relevancy, share the link juice and rank it accordingly.
  • Increase Your Site’s Overall Visibility. If you have a large site you need good navigational skills like deep linking to help the user and search engine. Deep links from your internal pages and of course other sites give a path for the search engines to follow to the deeper pages and index.

Do Links to Deep Pages Give Juice to Home Page?

Sending lots of traffic to your home page with anchor text is not a good SEO strategy for most websites. Your homepage anchor link rate should be 30%. Your internal link page ratio should be 70%. Deep linking is the method to help you accomplish that. When writing guest posts make sure you use deep linking for the deeper articles on your site. Take your visitor to the information they need.

The wonderful thing about deep linking is that it will raise the authority, relevancy and visibility of your website in all the search engines. The most important factor is deep linking will drive your visitors to relevant pages that satisfy their goal and needs. This should reduce your bounce rate and increase the chances that they will become a more dedicated reader.

Deep linking will add juice to the linked page and any other pages within that silo. As the other siloed pages get more juice they will share it with other pages within the silo. The silo of linked pages starts to get higher rankings with more juice. That juice is passed on to the category page which pages juice on to the home page.

So the answer to the question is yes, deep linking to deep pages gives juice to home page…………plus deep linking for sales can be taken to the bank.

_________________________________________________________________

Need to Build Backlinks?

Whether you are an online business or a traditional brick and mortar business, one of the most important things that you need to accomplish is getting traffic to your website. To accomplish this, you need to be building quality backlinks for your website that will get you on the first page of the search engines. And to gain even more traffic, you need to get the site listing as high up as possible on the page. Here is the thing, your website, and no matter what type of business, you are involved in, is the gateway to the internet and making more sales.

Yellow Pages Are Out

People very seldom go to the yellow pages anymore to look up companies for a particular product or service and they don’t call around to different suppliers or retailers. They search online for what they are looking for and who can supply it to them. The problem many companies face is getting to the top of the search engines for particular Google keywords. You have to know what you are doing to a certain extent with SEO. There are some simple things that you can do, that gives you a better chance when you are building quality backlinks and getting your site out there for people to see.

Join Sharing Community

One of those things is taking advantage of an online sharing community called the Content Facilitator. To build quality backlinks check out the service at contentfacilitator.com. For instance I run a blog about Network Marketing News. It’s very competitive to get on the first page of Google.  To rank well, I need to build as many quality backlinks as possible. It used to be easy to do that, but with all of the changes Google has made  in the past year, it is extremely difficult to get quality backlinks just on your own. Using a resource like Content Facilitator to build backlinks is a valuable tool for you.

To Build Backlinks with Content Facilitator Works Two Ways

Publish Web Content

1.) When you sign up as a free member of the Content Facilitator you can publish other peoples relevant articles that are in the Article Marketplace. I have found it tends to be good quality content that I can use on my website. For many, it can be tough to keep a regular publishing schedule. This allows me to add content to my site on a regular basis and keep my blog fresh and relevant. The content is used to build backlinks by the author. I make some small changes, like adding a new title and some additional keywords. I never completely trust a author on a piece being unique, even when I pay someone to write a article. Remember these authors main goal is the building of quality backlinks.

 Publish Your Articles

2.) As a member of Content Facilitator you can write articles that will be published on other people’s site. You will add or build backlinks into your article. The beauty of building backlinks this way is, you get to determine the anchor text used. The amount you pay will determine how many articles you can publish, but it is not hard at all to build backlinks this way. I use it to build backlinks and as part of my deep linking strategy.

Web Master SUMMARY:

So, what you are doing is creating guest posts on other people’s blogs plus building backlinks pointing back to your site in the article. If you are familiar with backlink building then you know how important it is to get textual links to your site. Profile links, comment links, and the like no longer hold the weight they used to, and textual links are the high quality backlinks you need. Depending on the keywords or niche that you are targeting, will determine how easy it is to get on the first page. It may take awhile depending on your niche, but this is a great resource to have in your tool box for generating leads and sales online.  As you build backlinks, you are working towards getting your website ranked as high as possible in the search results.
