    If Link Building is not fetching us ranks? why so many of us are investing time in it? Is it not fair to invest time in a bigger effort like SEO which includes Link Building as a part and also fetch ranks..... Your suggestions invited....

    Where is this thread going?

    Link building is a waste of time?

    Link building is just a part of SEO and SEO is not waste of time.

    Building websites and not doing SEO for it is a waste of time.

    this is what I am saying.... If SEO can do wonders then why people are doing both SEO as well as Link Building when Link Building is an integral part of SEO?

    Isn't efforts of SEO would pay for all the SEO activitties including Link Building?

    No SEO needs link building too. Without Backlinks how will search engines know the importance of your site.

    Yes if content is good enough and other people are linking to your site then also it is a linking thing that in end helps the site to rank better.

    From my own experience the backlinks are more important than SEO. However, of course you need to have your website SEOed properly to rank in Google (e.g. the keywords, titles, etc.).

    Without link building all your on page seo will be a waste of time. It's not a waste of your time building links. Do it for 12 months or more and then have a look at your results.

    SEO is one of those things that is really mandatory at first but if you have good enough content it will spread by yourself, within the past half an hour I have gotten 10 backlinks to one of my blogs. It is all about creating a good reputation within your niche, and to initially do this you will need to build up some link power.

    link building in SEO because you aren't going anywhere even if you have a good content on your site. Do you think that your site will be notice by search engine without any links pointing to it?

    Links aren't important? Links are one of the key factors to rank a site.
