    Good day all,

    One question i wish to ask is how to do i get backlinks to any genuine org, edu or gov site?

    I have mailed lots of them (continuously for about 2 years now) and am yet to get a good response. Now am thinking, is this really possible using this approach of mailing? Or are there other means which i am ignorant of?

    I have seen my immediate competitors have links to their websites on different org, edu, gov site. And they have been enjoying high placements on Google for months/years.

    What am i doing wrong or what have i not done to achieve this backlinks?

    Please help me (if you do not want to respond here, you can Direct message me too)

    N.B: I run a job website (with Google ranking mostly on the 2 page)

    Kind regards

    Babajide

    Nobody who runs a reputable site is going to give you a link just because you ask for it. Make your site useful, get it well known and they'll probably give you a link "organically" in an article about "what to do when you graduate" or similar. Your site needs to be a leader in it's field though, even if only for a really specific niche like bio-med jobs in Nigeria.

    Best way to get such type of high quality backlink is to write good comment on their blog. You can use http://dropmylink.com/ to find related blog and just comment there.

    You can offer something useful stuff or give away deals for fresh students/graduates on 1st 10 or 20 signups on your website, as you said its a job portal so it will get attention and noticed by Universities and other academic institutions. In this way they will let their students know about your offers and mention you on their website. I hope this will increase your chances to get natural authoritative backlinks from your desired domains.

    Cheers!
