Hello everyone. I am a newbie..Some 3-4 days back, I started a website named http://www.crack-entrance.com/ . Its basically a student's portal which intends to help students, answering their queries, providing them with exam notifications, writing inspiring articles and trying to help them in their preparations. Not to mention a lot of similar sites exist, but people who are on my site like my work. It doesn't look too beautiful either as it is in its introductory phase. Obviously, I want to make money out of it by getting ads etc. So how do I make it popular. I have heard backlinks/inlinks are most important for getting high on google ranking. SO right now, I am submitting original articles to ezine,goarticles.com, yahoo answers and also on digg on reddit to get quality dofollow links. Now my question is what is more important? Getting backlinks first or writing quality content and using SEO. What will u advice to a beginner/newbie? Right now, I can spend only 3 hours on all this link building stuff. SO suggest accordingly. Any tips for saving time? Am I following right approach? Please guide me all of you. Thanks
Quality content keeps people coming back, which is needed to make your traffic grow over time. But you must consider some sort of marketing budget. Limiting yourself to just 3 hours will result in almost certain failure.
if you only have 3 hours I suggest you use digixmas diretory submiter it might help, its free and lets you submit to 150 directories
From what I have always heard you build content, content, and then more content. Then you start working on links, while still making more content. Never think that a lot of links will over rule the nesecity of good, quality content!
