So what is a backlink and why are they so important? Backlinks are a simple
concept: when another website links to you that link is considered a backlink.
Search engines look at backlinks to evaluate how popular a website is and rank
them accordingly.
Each backlink is given a certain amount of “juice” based on it’s own reputation,
history, and authority in the niche. Backlinks from established and legitimate
websites are more effective than low-quality backlinks from websites with no
credibility.
With all that said, if you want to rank for competitive keywords, you need
backlinks.
Here are some ways to get easy backlinks to help rank your website:
Blog
comment: Leave a comment on a blog that you
read. That seems obvious, but recent trends seem to have people tweeting and
"liking" instead of leaving actual comments. Bloggers appreciate
comments and if your link is relevant then all the better.
Squidoo : Build a Squidoo lens. This is super easy to do and I think you'll be surprised at how much targeted traffic even a very simple Squidoo lens can get itself and how much it can bring to your website.
Yahoo Answers: Answer questions about your topic on
Yahoo Answers. Add
a link to your to your answer of your
site.
Guest Blogging: Speaking of guest
appearances, submit a guest blog post on a relevant blog in your niche. We all
have times that we're busy and in need of content. If you have a well written
article that you send to a fellow blogger and ask them to be a guest chances
are they will welcome you with open arms. Be polite when you send your guest
posting request, include at least a summary of the article if you don't include
the full article. After they post the article, thank them and ask if they need
any additional content.
Article Writing: Article directories, or as
Google refers to them as “content farms”
did indeed get hit by Google very recently. This was due to blackhat SEO’s
publishing garbage content, that made no sense and was likely spun using a
tool. Although this changed the article directory’s traffic, it doesn’t change
the quality of the link you’re getting back to your website. Getting these type
of backlinks should not be your only method, and you should try to focus on
getting more backlinks from unique root domains, than tons of links from the
same website. If you’re doubting the effectiveness of article directories, just
try it and the doubt will go away.
