Backlinks: The Fuel that Propels Sites to the Top of the Search Engines

Many people spend thousands of dollars on beautiful websites and then wonder why they don’t get any visitors? You can have the most beautiful website on the internet, but it is not going to produce any results if no one knows it exists. You need targeted traffic. What is targeted traffic? Targeted traffic refers to your targeted market or audience. How do you get targeted traffic to your sites? You need to be on the top of the search engines for the product or service you sell (another word for this is keyword or keyword phrase). How do improve your search engines rankings? There are two ways. You can spend thousands of dollars using Google Adwords or you can hire a link building expert to create backlinks. Lucky for you, I am a link building expert and I am going to show you a few ways you can build backlinks.

Backlinks are like fuel. However, not all backlinks are the same. There are backlinks that Google frowns upon and those are the ones you need to stay away from. Here are a few examples: FFA sites, link farms and spam sites. Stay away from these and don’t let anyone sell you a backlink package that will get your site on one of these. What you want to do is get quality backlinks from high page rank sites. Some people like to ask webmasters for reciprocal links and that’s ok. However, one way links are the best types of backlinks.

How can you get backlinks?

There are many ways of link building. I know because this is what I do for a living. I build backlinks for my own sites as well as my client’s sites. I want to warn you, it is time consuming. This is why so many people would rather outsource this work. I enjoy doing this work. As a mother to 7 kids (of which the youngest is autistic), it provides a great opportunity to work from home.

There are three effective methods that work immediately that anyone can do.

1. Social bookmarking is a great way to create one way links. You can get a link from your profile and from the article or post you bookmark. Please, be careful. Bookmarking a lot of your content can get you banned from most sites. Bookmark other content too and be generous. Making friends with other bloggers can prove to be very beneficial later on. (Using this method may also bring you a lot of traffic in a short amount of time).

2. Article marketing provides a lot of benefits. First of all, many article directories have high page rank. Another great benefit is that people may take your article and post it on their site which would produce a backlink from a different Class C ip address. The icing on the cake is that readers will see you as an authority on the subject you write for. (When I use this method for sites, the page rank improves rapidly).

3. RSS Feed Submission provides yet another way to get easy backlinks. Most RSS Feed Directories have high Google page rank. They tend to be indexed by search engines. There have been many instances that I have submitted RSS Feeds for sites and they have appeared on the first page of Google within minutes.

The most important advice about link building that I can give you is: TAKE ACTION. If you don’t take action, you will never succeed. If you don’t want to do it yourself, you can outsource your link building. Whatever you choose to do, do it. If you paid someone to create a website, make that investment work for you.

Trading Links – Is It Still A Strong Marketing And Advertising Method

Just about everybody in the Internet marketing field know that backlink building really can make or break their online business. And a few years ago, trading links together with various other websites was looked upon as being a great way to build backlinks. But with all the modifications that Google has made over time, is this still thought to be a good marketing method? If you want to know if it is still an effective practice, keep reading and you will find out the answer.

So basically a backlink is a link that points from one site to another site. These backlinks are usually viewed as votes for your site by the major search engines. Which means that your Internet site will rank higher in the search engines when you have more inbound links to your website. When it relates to the value of each backlink you’ll find that some backlinks have better value than others. Let’s just say you have a link on a Internet site that has a page rank of 3, if the link is on the home page of the site you will find that it has more value than if the backlink is found on a sub page of that website. In order to determine the value of the link you’ll want to look at the page the link is on, instead of what the page rank of the home page is, even though the home page rank will probably still help a little.

When men and women trade links with other sites normally those other websites have a separate page on their site where they place the link for your site. So you’re not getting the same results from that backlink, that you would from the home page of that site. Another thing you should remember about these link web pages is that your link may be surrounded by hundreds of other links. I am sure nearly all of you already know that Google frowns upon this and generally these backlinks don’t even get counted.

Something else you may or may not have heard is that Google does not give the same authority to links that are exchanged as they do to one way links. For those of you who are unaware a one way link is actually when you don’t have to link back to the Internet site that has your link on it. When Google views one way links they provide that link more strength than a link that has been exchanged. You could also find websites that Google has de-indexed and if you end up trading links with them it is possible to hurt your own rankings. Of course it is not your aim to have Google hate you, however it can happen if you trade backlinks with the wrong websites.

The only time trading inbound links can provide advantages for you is when the web page where your link is has a very good page rank and a great deal of visitors. If your link ends up getting hidden on some deeper page of the site there is a great chance that the page where your link is, is not even indexed by Google. The problem is that most Internet sites that trade backlinks actually have some sort of links page that doesn’t get indexed. To sum up, when you are able your better off building one way links and there are lots of ways to accomplish this, but swapping links is a thing that is going by the wayside.
