    Link Building is an important part of Search Engine Optimization, and is a practice of getting other websites to link to yours. Link Building with quality backlinks is amongst many important aspects considered by search engines, while determining the rankings of a site. Therefore, creating backlinks is one of the most important tasks you can undertake to promote your website with the search engines.

    When it comes to using the Search Engine Optimization technique for a website, Links pointing to a particular website is one of the most dominant off-page factors. Link building is vital but at the same time, a very lengthy and extensive task to perform. The reason why many webmasters are on a lookout for some shortcut options or erroneous methods to increasing backlinks, as most of them do not have the time and the endurance to carry out a genuine link building campaign.

    There are many ways in which Link Building can be performed. Some are genuine while some are incorrect methods. The quantity of the backlinks can also be increased by using dishonest techniques like cloaking, redirecting and adding hidden content in to the web pages. This is the reason why the search engines do not give much weightage to the quantity or the number of links pointing to a website, but, to the quality of the links, while measuring the Link Popularity of a site.

    Search engines mainly give credits to quality links and it is with the help of these links that they determine whether or not, a website is relevant for a particular search. Quality backlinks also help Search Engine in determining the rankings for your site. Especially Google gives a lot of preference to good and relevant backlinks, while ranking a site.

    The Quality of the backlinks depend on genuineness and richness of the content of a particular website which is linking to us, or which we are linking to. The most significant factor in determining the quality of the links is the Relevancy . When we say that a particular link is relevant to our site, we mean that that particular link belongs to a site which is content rich and genuine, and, belongs to the same theme of websites as ours. In simple words, we can say that it is related to our website, so the link coming from their site would be relevant to us. And it is this relevancy of links, which is given weightage to, by the search engines.

    Your post was good, though as you were using it primarily to advertise your link building services you should have just posted a sales thread in BST.

    Your post is out of place. It should be in the Buy, Sell or Trade your services section of the Forum. Please respect the SEO section. It is for discussion, interaction and collaboration, NOT for selling or advertising your services or products.

    I Imagine 600 backlink for 15. I think you are using spam software. I purchased a submission service for $110 where they submit to 700 directories in 7 months!!! So that was real and helped a lot. Your service will hurt more than help.

    I too read the post and yes you talk about the benefits of backlink building but then you DROP the bomb with a link to your backlink building service. So I do not blame the other member for telling you that your post is out of place. Had you NOT included your link at the bottom and made a call to action the post would have been informative.

    I have to say that this is not something I like to see in a forum, especially in one that talks about SEO. You did not even bother to make this post unique so how can you tell us that you are a professional in SEO? you basically built duplicate content and you are also selling something. If you would have just copy-pasted everything and then simply left that link that you have in your signature all would have been a lot better. As soon as I saw the big 600 backlinks for $15 link there I did not want to read the article anymore. This is the truth and I only skimmed it as I knew it was selling something. Probably other people also did that and it is bad as the info is good for most people browsing this forum.

    The post is copied. It is available in article directories and forums too. This guy is trying to increase the posts and advertise his service.

    Good observation Hem1234. Spamming the forum is not advisable here.
