Creating good theme based links is more important now! the links should be from a website of good page rank.
Don't waste your time chasing backlinks from high PR sites. You should work on relevant promotion and link baits. Authentic blog commenting can actually achieve relevant traffic.
Link building is through any of the technique is worth to get results. But just the need is to build the links with providing the quality and meaningful content in your post, so that visitor like to click on the link below your post. And try to get the links from the relevant and authentic sources.
Hi, Can you please elaborate on Link Baits..... I think they are black hat technique.... Regards GlobalecommerceGroup Globalecommercegroup Ecommerce Web Design, SEO Services UK
Get only relevant and quality backlinks and try to do only one-way link building process which is very important and don't get paid links it is not good for ranking.
Link baiting is anyway of persuading people to link to your site of their own accord. This could be creating an infograpic that people want to share or mentioning someone in your blog post so that they want to share with their social circle. It is in no way black hat...yet In regards to general link building look at the following variables: Theme/relevancy - if you link building for a sports site, get links from other sports sites. Simple. Content - Make sure you link is within relevant, unique content. Forget about site wide, footer links, except in some limited circumstances, these are now spam signals. Anchor Text - Use less money links (e.g. footballs) and aim for an anchor text mix of around 60/70 branded links and some compound (i.e. money and brand terms combined). Link Mix - Don't get all your links from the same sources, get some blogs, some news sites, etc. Social - Look for sites with good social metrics, likes, tweets etc. Plus get these same metrics for your site. As far as blog commenting goes, just make sure the comment is relevant to the article it is related to. There is probably a few other things I've forgotten to mention, but this should be a good start! Hope that helps, K.
Some of the seo blogs that I read suggests to use variable anchor text for our links. Don't just focus on the exact keyword that you're targeting. And then, you should make sure the source of your backlink is relevant to your website.
Exactly. Even chucking in a few 'click here's and 'visit site' will help to add variety to your link mix and above all make it look NATURAL!
Try to get back links from authority domains and make sure you are not using the same anchor text for all these back links.
Here is one good article about post Penguin link building, http://www.keywordcountry.com/blog/...ver-optimization-your-penguin-survival-guide/ Hope this helps!
Authority domains are ones that have quality backlink profiles, ie links from other quality sites, are updated regularly with original, high quality content, have active social profiles (twitter, facebook g+ etc.) and user engagement (comments), don't link out to irrelevant sites, don't link out too much full stop, generally the older the site the better, provide a good user experience, etc. On the 'authority scale' the BBC or the Guardian would be top, with spammy site selling viagra and weight loss pills being at the bottom. There are probably a bunch of other factors I haven't thought of off the top of my head. Any suggestions?
Several key issues to note since Penguin has rolled out: - use "no follow" for any link that's a "waste", such as pointing to your "privacy policy", "contact us", repeating secondary menu links, outbound links - to avoid PR dilution and to avoid making Penguin think you're helping other sites inflate their PR - don't swap links - don't use exact-match anchor texts, use related words, sentences - don't buy directory links... just a few quality ones... - background-check any site from which you get links - steadily obtain backlinks, not many at once - obtain quality article backlinks (eHow.com, Wikipedia, About.com used to be great sources) ...etc.
