I started doing this and I agree. The only problem is....actually writing the article, lol. I know you can get other people to write them for you, but money is money and right now I think I can speak for many folks when I say...times are tough.
If you want easy and fast - buy them. For long term results build content and the links will build themselves.
What's worked for me quite well is a mix of directory links, article submissions, and social bookmarking. I'm pretty lazy, and don't like doing stuff that takes too much work, so I've got most of my SEO work down into a system... 1) Directory submissions. Go to the marketplace here, or to some of the other SEO forums, e.g. wickedfire etc. You can find some great people to do directory submissions for under $40. 2) Article Writing Submissions. Same as above, go to the marketplace, find someone to write articles for you. (You will have to weed out alot of the writers who don't do quality work though... Recommend asking for samples and reading through if quality is an issue for you.) Rewritten articles are better, as you get more "juice" out of them. Personally, I use Unique Article Wizard... I pay an american friend of mine to do quality articles and spins through the system - the extra couple of bucks I save using the DP or WF forums just aren't worth the lower quality. The system then submits the article for you to ~1,000 sites, and voila, you've got a bunch of links... more below. 3) Social Bookmarking... I personally use a software (Bookmarking Demon) to social bookmark the article sites that accepted the articles I submitted. I don't like to use the bookmarking demon software on the site I want to SEO myself. I'm not sure if Google will ever call those types of links "spammy", and I don't want to penalize my site. So instead, I just use it for the sites linking to mine 4) If I'm not so lazy, or I'm willing to pay a bit more, I'll create accounts / blogs on a number of different free sites, e.g. blogspot.com, wordpress.com, squidoo.com, hubpages and the others that you can find around. I'll take a version of the spun articles above, and place them on those sites, interlink all of the sites, and voila! I've got more links coming in. This technique is pretty effective for an initial setup. If you do it on a bunch of domains, and create your own link network, I've found it easy to start ranking pretty quickly. After that, if you want to take it to the next level, you create an "autoblog" on each domain in your network. This pulls scraped content in, and gets you additional content on the site. You can just continue doing this, creating articles, adding spun "unique content" to all of your different sites etc. I generally will have one site that this all links back to at the end, that gives me the real value. I also do / have done SEO for other people in the past. this is the solution I've used. It's not rocket science, and I'm not scared to share, because I currently work for a large company that already does the SEO and sales, and I don't really need the extra income... I charge(d) a minimum of $250/month, all the way up to $5k for this stuff, and it's ridiculously cheap (compared to what clients are getting from other people). @apartmentsturkey the whole "quality links" concept is waay overrated. I can show you sites that have "garbage links", that are ranking for extremely competitive keywords... No "quality links" in site (pun intended). Be careful to keep it borderline fine, try to make sure you are not "polluting the internet" with crap just to get links, and you should be fine. Hope this helps... You wanna pay me back? Just use the links in my sig file if you want to buy any of the software... PM me if you have any questions
Create high quality article or post and market it. The trick is in marketing the high quality post, its tricky. Even if you have high quality post, if you don't market the post then it won't do any good.
Quick and easy - buy the directory links and stuff from the guys on the marketplace in this forum. It's really easy - and it helps. I use it, and recommend. Besides that, article marketing, social bookmarking, creating real profiles by some of the top sites, etc. will really help you. I'm a bit lazy to list all the specific social places to create profiles (mybloglog is a great place, BTW. Passes PR, and has high PR on their profile pages. If you are willing to pay a bit more, look at the resources in my sig file. I use them - they are very useful.
get a blog on wordpress and blogspot and add your link there.but making 100 of blogs wont help you on these sites as they would be on the same ip, and only 1 backlink would count.
You could always do some blog commetning, use the search engine in my sig, its great. SEarch for your nichie, find similiar content to yours, then leave a constructive comment! Presto, a relevant link..... There is some controversy surround this method, but i have tested it on a website with NO link popularity, and used blog commenting. It got indexed and ranked first page within 1 week.... proof enough for me....
One way backlinks are essential for every website’s success. The more number of one way links pointing to your site, the greater is its chance of getting high PR & more volume of traffic. Though there is no easy & shortcut to get quality backlinks faster but processes like directory submission, article marketing, blog posting, social book marking, forum posting, press release submission & blog comment posting will help you build your link popularity gradually.
Google wants to see your links grow steadily. It implies that your website is growing organically - hence, link building is a never-ending process. If you do end up getting dumped with thousands of links tomorrow but only a couple extra the day after that then the search engines won't necessarily value you as a source. If you are going to outsource; some systems may be too efficient! Products such as the Unique Article Wizard work because its a long term, sustained operation. If you're thinking you can dip in for one month and even claim the money back guarentee after submitting hundreds of articles - then you miss the point. Services such as that simple allow for more volume over time. Ask yourself this question - can you afford to be paying nearly $750 per year for some article submission software; can you afford NOT to be paying $750 per year for article submission software? When starting out, my guess is probably not unless you've got deep pockets. Ensuring your links program is diverse is another thing - don't just stick to article marketing for example.
If you get too many backlinks to your site too fast, youll get into trouble with the search engines because through their eyes, they'll see it as spamming.
I'd like to try this method, but idk what a pad file is, nor where I would submit it. If you do make a video, do share it
To me, buying links from the BST forum here is the most straightforward method. 3 way link exchange would also do, but it takes much time.
you can get one way quality backlinks from forums and web directories and why don't you try paid links.
