Hello, I had a few ideas that I'm looking for feedback on. I'm trying to come up with some ideas for link building. 1. I always see that there are tons of coupon websites out there. Hell, I never buy anything online without looking there first. So for those with an ecommerce site, how about offering a coupon as a way to build links? Anybody try this? Results? Is there software that submits your offers in bulk? 2. Years ago I was looking into affiliate marketing. I came across a program where affiliates gave direct links (non-coded) back to your website, hence building your one-way links. I just cannot remember what company that was?! Any ideas? Anybody have any experience with this? 3. Redistributing professionally written articles. Years ago I had a bunch of articles written for me, I sent them out via Isnare and today, I can barely find them. I understand we want to try to avoid dup content, but isn't a link still a link? Appreciate your insight!
Lot's of companies add the coupon route to their link building campaigns. It's a good step. As for the affiliate direct links, Google is pretty good at determining whether or not a link is an affiliate link even if it's a direct link. That really doesn't matter anymore. There are other ways to go around that so that the link still counts. Redistributing articles is also a great way to build links, but put quality time into it, otherwise your just spamming. Write unique content, don't submit the same article to a bunch of sites, sure a link is still a link, but it's also a good way to get flagged as a spammy perpetrator lol.
Thank you for your input. Would you happen to know of a company that would distribute my coupons to the those companies? I cannot find anything.
Yeah the coupon step is a good idea and people love there coupons and people getting coupons are normally buyers which is the traffic you want to an eCommerce site. Good idea
I have done coupon submissions once, it is quite helpful in selling products as well. but as far as backlink is concern very few of them gives direct link back to our website, rather they provide you some hidden link url which is of no use in SEO. But you may go for it as, as it helps in direct sells of our products.
Coupons are a great way to get backlinks. The thing you need to watch for, in my experience, is what backlink text is used though. While I don't know which company it was, I know that I've seen several that offered a referral program based on the HTTP referrer rather than a dedicated referral link. Long story short, one-way links to the main page using whatever anchor text they wanted in most cases. This is a great way to do it. You might pay someone to rewrite your article and give you a spinnable version that's coherent and makes sense, while inserting your link somewhere. Remember that articles aren't just about getting a backlink but they're also about getting visitors to your website.
Writing articles and spinning a few sentences within the article and then spinning the words can help you create 100 percent unique articles. You can then use an article submission service that allows spinning syntax to submit your article to thousands of directories and blogs...
