Good Post.. I still think link baiting is the way to get success for G' . Just create unique and quality content frequently and people will find you easily along with link back naturally.

 

Great post, i have a question about link farms for you. What should you do if you find your site on a link farm? what if you outsourced your sites SEO and they used link farms? i thought with link farms they just didn't benefit you, i didn't think they actually hurt your rankings.

 

^They won't destroy your site if you are only on a couple of them. Now if the majority of links come from spammy places such as link farms you could be in trouble. If you notice your website on a link farm contact the webmaster and ask him to remove the link, this was the only solution I could find on google. Really though a couple bad links won't kill your rankings I think google did this as a way of preventing black hat seo.

 

The blog is so nice and to get more traffic join the social networking sites such as twitter.

 

^^Thank you rashida, I plan on covering all the social sites as well as blogging and blog commenting. I think my next post will be how to seo a site. Not sure though.
