How Quickly Should a New Site Generate Backlinks

So, how quickly should a new site gereate backlinks to rank as quickly as possible and avoid the sups?

I don't know, so I'll take a guess at it and would appreciate any advice if anyone has some insight into this.

My Guess:

Lets say we want link generation to appear as a natural growth of a site becoming popular. I think under this senario, links should grow at a multiplicative rate. This will look like a natural sort of viral growth in popularity.

Lets say after 3 months we want approx 1000 links. We will add links weekly, lets start with 10 links on the first week.

Under these assumptions, a multiplicative factor of 1.5 seems good, giving us the total number of links for each of the 12 weeks as follows:

Week Total Links
1 10
2 15
3 22
4 33
5 50
6 75
7 113
8 170
9 256
10 384
11 576
12 864

Any comments?

 

Looks fine to me - assuming they are from decent sites.


If on the other hand, they are all also new sites, I'd think the search engines would start wondering.


Keep it clean, and you should be fine.

Good luck.

 

Your numbers look good, they also look workable.

An easy way to do this is something I and others have often recommended on this forum: every day go to DP's "Directories > Solicitations and Announcements". There you will find anywhere from half a dozen to a dozen new offers (free and paid directories). Submit to some or all of them. You will have a steadily increasing backlink count as a result.

Using primarily this technique (not to mention the natural links that come from others who like the website), I've built up over 15,000 backlinks (per Yahoo).

 

interesting method, but you should have backlink from the site have pagerank, it is better for search engine to rate you

 

That is true. But submitting to the directories in DP's directory section is still a good practice for at least two reasons:

1) Some of the directory offers already have decent PR on the inner category sub-pages you will be submitting to.

2) Some (by no means all) of the newer, free directories do not currently have PR, but will in the future. It's great to get in free on the "ground floor" of directories that may in the future become powerful players in the directory market.

And a third, positive reason for submitting to directories offered by DPers is to help a brother or sister get his/her directory off the ground. One of the great things about this forum is the sincere interest that so many members have in helping one another.
