Hello fellow Marketers, I will be starting an e-commerce site. I have never built backlink for an e-commerce site. Please guide me on what all strategies should i focus on in building good quality backlink. Also giving me some useful links to get backlinks would be appreciated. Thanks !
Start by creating backlinks on your own site. Create a blog and link to certain items you sell. For example if youre selling computers, do a review on computers and link to one that you have for sale. The blog will also help you get natural backlinks if the content is good. You can also do social bookmarking create a FB page and post stuff there Use Twitter to tweet sales, content etc. Start there and then once you get that down look for more advanced methods. But you need to start somewhere and since you have nothing at the moment, that would be my suggestion as the best place to start.
Before you start link building, you need to do keyword researching at https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner first.
remember that it's not quantity that will rank you, rather it's quality. Matt Cuts said on a video on YouTube ( a Google employee ) That a handful of links can get you ranked well on Google.
Depending on the niche you are in, there are many directories you can add your website to. Reaching out to blogs that are in the same niche could be a good way to not only get backlinks but also get more publicities. You could offer samples to the bloggers and ask them to write about your site if they enjoyed your product.
Creating Backlinks: Good keyword research Quality content if your content is good then sites will link to you. Plus your content will get shared, liked and tweeted giving you traffic plus ranking your keywords up the search engines..
