Let me know your ways of link building in the year 2013. My goal is to write articles for Hubpages and stuff and build links. What about you?
Yeah sound good I have same idea, Google only wants high quality back-links, so what I'm going to do is create Squidoo & Hub-pages and link this pages to low and high traffic site then link my squidoo & hub-pages to my main site. Also you should focus in Social Network's, I believe this is going to be the future of search engines. Good luck in your link building on 2013.
Diversity is key, both in link sources and anchor text variation. You should ensure you are building links with a huge variety of anchor texts, and not just focus on your main target terms. Furthermore, if you do insist on building lower quality links- make sure these are pointed at tier 1 and 2 sites as opposed to directly at your "money" sites- this will help protect you against any penalties Google may choose to impose either now or in the future.

I agree with this, now can you explain me about blog commenting. Can we comment using the money site? It's a lot of confusing regarding with this subject.
Providing the blogs are related to your niche and of a good quality, you can safely create comments on these blogs direct to your money sites. If you're doing it in any real quantity, it's still best to rotate your anchor texts- diversity and quality should never be far from your mind. For any lower quality blog comments, perhaps being created on blogs less-so related to your own niche, I'd strongly advise going down the route of tier 1 and 2 links (through Web 2.0 Properties) if you insist on creating such links. This way, you *should* remain shielded from any Google penalties for unnatural linking. WebDev
Less is more in the modern era of SEO. You are much better off with a few good links from very reputable sites than you are with hundreds or thousands of low-quality links to crappy blogs. I really like the Squidoo strategy commented in this thread. I've been hearing more and more people are having good results that way.
share more knowledge on forums by creating informative threads, make blog comments on interesting relevant topics (no-follow and do-follow) using non optimized anchor text, post few high quality informative guest posts every month on authority relevant blogs, create 1-3 high quality web 2.0 page with quality content, post few unique articles per month too, buy few directory listings from most recognized directories, etc etc...
i prefer for social media marketing and i will build backlinks with highpage rank sites and i give more comments on my relevant blogs and ofcourse i will continue forum posting.
My way: 1. Directories still 2. Blogs 3. Forums 4. Member sites - social media / profile sites 5. Mega sites - wiki's / ehow's 6. Article Sites 7. Video Sites 8 Press Release So far, I have had the best link building response with the article sites. Cheers, Anthony
I'm going to steer away from wasting my time using link building services that are robotic, and go to the old time hand done way. Maybe some more comments in wordpress than I'd like but I think it should be quality over quantity. I have had a few of those programs get me tons of links on bad spammy sites which in the end probably are hurting me more than helping me.
I totally agree. Manual link building is the way to go because you control where you are linking to, which should be sites not only fit for SEO purposes but also generate natural traffic.
Less but quality backlinks (High Pr, relevant sites / categories). Strategies were - Article (Web 2.0, Article Sites, Blog Post) Blog Comment, Forum Comment Press Releases and definitely not only for offpage but also for on page - Unique, Informative and Engaging Content.
