This seems like a good way to gain backlinks. I have found just a couple blog articles where I made a comment (a quality/legit comment) with my backlink in the 'name' field. I'm using SEOquake to check the page ranks, and most blog articles I am finding are PR0. Can anyone suggest some better tactics on finding blog posts that I can comment in with PR5+? I am trying to find blogs that are web hosting, domain, computer, technology, etc. related. Thanks!
I would guess that Googling keyword + blog will bring up the higher pr blogs first. Not sure how many pr5 blogs would accept comments? Also, presumably you are doing other forms of link building - eg articles, social bookmarking, press releases, your own blogs etc???
just search on Google or more specific then on DP here only, you will find many DPers have provided the Blogs which are having Pr5 and having lot of internal pages with good PR , although comment on PR5 page is really hard to find specially a dofollow comment.
I have not tried articles, social bookmarking, or press releases... I do have a blog on my website, a blogspot blog, and a wordpress.org blog.
From what I understand it is as important to post blog entries as it is to reply to other blog entries. be sure to be doing both, not just one or the other. Hope this helps
It's very hard to find pr 5 blog pages if that is what you are asking. But any page you comment on could become a high pr page, so comment on plenty
The problem is that in most of the cases the main page of the blog has high pagerank and then all the new articles have low pr or 0. Of course if it is a great post it get more links and thus higher pagerank. High authority blogs get pagerank on all the internal pages relatively fast. Now the thing is that you must find an good blog with lots of traffic, that does not block the external links and post your comment fast in order to avoid having it on the bottom of the page. That's a hard task you know...
Check the source code in the a href if you do not find nofollow mentioned then it is a dofollow or install some firefox extension such as searchstatus which can be used to check if a link is nofollowed & you don't have to check the source code to know it.
And i can do this task easily I have experience in this field for more than a year and every client is satisfied with results. You climb the SERP very quickly and can also get to page 1 if your keyword is less competitive. I can provide PR1 to PR7 links (I'm talking of the PAGE PR here) as a package. Budget can be from $100 to $500 depending on the number of PR back links you want. Regards
You have to focus on your strategic keywords and implement it on blogs when commenting and always consider high PR blogs and topic
You can try getting on the Top Commentators list so many blogs use nowadays, that should get you hundreds if not thousands of backlinks. (I once got 10,000+ backlinks to one of my sites in a few weeks doing this.)
Another thing to consider is many (most) forums place "NO INDEX, NO FOLLOW" tags on links on their sites. As a result, these links will be useless to you in your link-building efforts. To check if you will get any benefit from links on a particular site, simply view the source code for that page (click "View Source" from the Page menu) and see of there is a META tag in the HEAD or REL tags for each link that contain NO INDEX, NO FOLLOW. If there is, then posting on these sites for link-building purposes is a waste of time as the search engines will skip right over them and (according to Google's Matt Cutts) you won't get any benefit at all. Good luck!
Use Google blog search and only look at posts a year and older. You're going to run into posts with pagerank and some juice this way.
I don't think he's talking about spamming. But I do agree that there are much better ways. I only comment if I'm already reading one and have something to say. I think it is kind of a waste to specifically go looking for blogs to comment on. -Danielle
I agree completely! Forums have somehow been heralded as the holy grail of link-building, but look at what they give you: Links from pages that have hundreds of links on them, the content is not necessarily relevant to your site, and most of the links have NO FOLLOW, NO INDEX tags applied to them. Most (but not all) forums are a waste of time for building high-quality, relevant backlinks that will provide your site with "juice." But they can be fun for sharing opinions.
It is not so easy to get high PR dofollow blogs in a particular niche.You'll find that if the blog is high PR it is nofollow and if it is dofollow then the PR is low. Link building is a long term process.Comment on dofollow blogs even if they have low PR and relevant to your niche.
The PR for a new post is going to show as zero until the next time pagerank is updated. If the home page for the blog has a good pr, go ahead and make a comment. If it's a quality blog and it continues to be updated and SEO'd the pagerank with you link on it will go up. There's also some benefit to commenting on some that are nofollow. It makes your linking look more natural overall.
