Hi there, Can any expert share that what the are top 10 links building methods that are acceptable by the Search engines and have no negative impact on the site's ranking. Any help will be appreciated. Regards wKarims
The best way to get quality incoming links are: 1. Press release 2. Social bookmarking sites 3. Blog post 4. Article Submission 5. Forum posts
Personally I think that link-building is now vastly over-rated, and I believe that on the whole Search Engines have developed ways to identify and discount the efforts of link builders. With that in mind let me suggest the opposite -ways not to link i) Three way link building. Simply don't do it unless you want a ban. ii) Aggressive reciprocal link building that trips a flag because it happens too fast. iii) Using nothing but reciprocal links -think about it -a natural pattern will have some outgoing one-way links and some incoming one-way links. iv) Lazy linking building that offers the same text over and over, or simply takes the text provided by others. Make your links a personal review. Especially avoid superlative words which are an obvious sign to Search Engines of link exchanges. v) Too many inbound links from low value sites in proportion to high value. It is not simply the number of links so much as quality of links that count. Don't water down your link quality score. vi) Too high a proportion of links to prose text -it is easy for Search Engines to identify links only pages and devalue the page or site. vii) Too many links on a page. viii) Spamming forums and wikis. ix) Links from off-topic pages. x) Finally don't spam people with hundreds of standardised and poorly worded requests for reciprocal/three links -at best they get binned, at worst somebody will file a spam report with Google. I am generous with my outbound links to quality sites, irrespective of whether they ask, and am grateful for unsolicited inbound ones. I never respond to standardised link requests. Seems to work.
