How to get back links

[seopigeon]

Hi all,

How to get back links and traffic in blogs. please give me the suggestions.

[Ace0]

Ok let me start,
1. blog comments...

[ownsite]

Yes, commenting on blogs is a great way to generate traffic, because
on most blogs you are allowed to leave a link back to your site, but this
only works well IF ...
your comments are a great addition to the topic discussed.

That means you really have to read the posts and make interesting
comments that contribute to the value of the post and the blog.

The blog owner will be happy with that.
Some of them even reward you with a link back without the NOfollow
feature enabled. That means a one-way back link!

The sooner you comment, the more traffic you will generate, as all other
readers get to see your link too. The amount of traffic highly depends on
the blog you're commenting at and the quality of your comments.

Also keep in mind, that if you post high quality comments, you can
start building a relationship with the blogger. Although it will not always
happen, chances are that this will lead to exchanging links, or, even better,
guest posting with a link back to your site.

Also remember to vary your anchor text in back links and that you should
not only link back to your domain, but to individual pages too. Deep linking
works like charm. :)

submit to blog directories and RSS feed sites

Blogs are definitely an excellent way to get backlinks to your site. There are also a lot of social marketing sites that you could use to accomplish the same thing, in addition to having those pages in the top 10 of Google Search Results. Sites like Scribd, Squidoo, etc. would do that. Also check the link in my signature. It is a brand new site, only a week or so old that will allow you to submit articles, and get a backlink to your site for free. There is no limit to how many articles you can submit either. If you decide to signup, let me know and I'll see if I can find a good SEO ebook for you for free, or some other ebook that will help you in your efforts.

If you don't believe me about the rankings, Google "Qassia Dollars". My scribd document on Qassia Dollars is number 1. My blog on Qassia is number 3. The wonderful thing about scribd though, is I got that #1 ranking almost immediately.


Update: Just noticed the rss feeds suggestion. Check out rsshugger.com and wordhugger.com. Those will also help.

Visit the directory in my sig - there are many articles and blog posts on the topic.

[EdJohanson]

Forum posting with link in signature could make lot of backlinks. Besides Sitepoint You should try it at webmaster-talk, earners forum, marketingchat

[Scorpiono]

Be active in other blogs! ;)

[GeorgR.]

you go here on the buy/sell forum and buy "backlink building service" from some guy for a few bucks. Thats the lazy method :)

not only link back to your domain, but to individual pages too. Deep linking
works like charm. :)

ownsite, I thought I should always be using the same anchor text which is the keywords that I am targetting. Do you recommend for example linking back the same page in my domain with different anchor texts?

[Nystul]

Send out private emails asking for blog link listing ! *works for me : ))

[ownsite]

@chiggins
You should use your main keywords for the page you're referring to, but change the anchor text.
Examples for keyword internet marketing:
internet marketing, internet marketing expert, internet marketing strategies, tips on internet marketing etc.

Make sense?

[fasttrack]

Buying them is the easiest way :) not always the most effective but definitely quicker.

[SnowBear]

Think up and write about the most interesting topics you can, and submit the very best ones to Digg.com, and other social bookmarking sites.

You could also try Myspace, Facebook etc. Build up an active profile, with a big friend list, and put some prominant links on your page

And the most old-fashioned route....buy some ;)

Hi all,

How to get back links and traffic in blogs. please give me the suggestions.
Link baiting is working for one of my sites. I write stuff that pisses people off and they just have to rebuttal me on their site and give a link back. Also when writing a post, if you link to another blog(trackbacks) and completely disagree with them(or better yet, offend them) they'll write a post about how much they think you're wrong.

[foreststone]

put your links in the signature, and often active in related forum
I sure this way can get some back links:)

[rcj662]

Submit to directories and rss feed sites. Articles also are a good way to get links

[seopigeon]

oh.. thanks for the suggestion's guys

[rose77mary77]

If my site doesn't have any RSS feed means may I submit my site on those sites which are having RSS feed?
can you give me one RSS feed site?
Thanks,

[MammaRose]

If you search the FREEBIES section you can sometimes find people giving away free blog posts on their own blogs.

[DRay9911]

thank you. that is one area i don't really go to often.

i'm slowly starting to move higher in google and i may be one or two steps away from moving onto the first page.

[elmasry]

always make your site url in your signture (forums, email....)

[j.cardell01]

HOWEVER!!!...be careful of the temptation and being lured to give some jack@55 DP member from Link Development or Buy, Sell, Trade sections an easy $10 for 1000+ directory submissions!!

These are absol;utely pathentic...and over 95% won't even count as a back-link!

I wish I could kick their sorry behinds!!

[Nikki11]

Submit your blog to social bookmarking sites which have "do follow". And also RSS feed directories and blog directories.

Another thing you can do is to register, submit your blog, and update this later.=)

I am not sure I understand that one. Register to what? Submit your blog to what?

Try creating a couple of Squidoo lenses. Make each one about a specific topic/product discussed on your blog and link to it. You can familiarize yourself with Squidoo by taking a look at best.website.ever.com

[dillontim]

Well for a start, you may do directory and social bookmarking submission.
Check my sigs.

Indeed some of these things that other users have mentioned have worked for me as well.

This one with sig links in forums have helped for traffic and links.

And yes social networks work very well. In this thread I list gives over 100+ social networks you may join.

Link Exchanges work just as well.

And yes making comments in blogs help as well.

[spamelius]

I got a list of all the blogs in my niche and outright asked them if they'd write about me. The results were OK.
