I've been reading on here a lot lately about people giving advice to get "good" or quality backlinks. Can someone give a few real examples of "good" backlinks? How do you know a good one from a not-so-good one? Also, how do you get linked by these websites (such as edu sites etc...)
A good backlink comes from a site within your niche has: wireless router or setup wireless router as the page title appropriate keyword density of wireless router in the page (preferably h1/h2 tags too) has outbound links with wireless router in the URL has few if any outbound links on the site ranks well for wireless router keywords Basically, try to get links from sites that rank well for your chosen keywords. If they rank well, chances are they are valuable as backlinks.
Good backlinks are backlinks from sites that have not been banned or greybarred greybarred at Google. Don't get your links from linkfarms are "free for all" links pages. Get links related to your niche.
Good back link means a link from a fully related pages. Like if you have a debt related page then u should get links from the debt related pages where the meta key words are debt related, see the title and the meta description of that page and check the page is cached or not. Try to get this kind of links. Google gives more value to the relevant links. Try to avoid resource page links so this will not help you much. It will be better for your if you go for good quality content page links instead of links page links where so many links are present. Hope you have understood what is a good quality back link.
A nice easy place to get GOOD backlinks from that Google absolutely LOVES! is ezinearticles.com - If you're not sure what I"m talking about or need more information just take a look in my sig. Lux
A good link: - is related to your site - has the right anchor text - DoFollow - good traffic - less outbound links on the same page - long term - in-content I'm sure I'm missing something
Quality Link Factors: * Link page should be recently crawled or cache by the Google and other search engines. If a page is not indexed by search engines then there is no mean to take the back link from that page. * Link should not have Nofollow Tag as it will not allow the page to pass its PR & Google will not consider it as a vote for your site. * Link should be from theme based sites it will also help you to get more visits. * Link page should not have many outgoing links as it will dilute the PR benefit to the linked site. It is like same as if we distribute one cake to 10 people rather then 5 & it will automatically decrease the quantity for each person. * To get more traffic, it is better to take the link from high traffic sites. * Link should not from frame sites as Google can not read the content within the frames. * We should also check the IP add of the link page. Links from the same IP page can create the negative impression in Search Engines. * Links from trusted domain always have more value.. * Always focus to get good one way links as reciprocal links don’t create much value for the site. High quality & unique content is the best way to get quality one way link. * Don’t do aggressive link building for your site like purchasing too many links as you might be trapped into spamming. Getting the links is not the only thing but to get the quality link is more important. Always remember High Quality & Unique Content is the only way to get the quality one way link. It will help to get the one way links automatically without any extra efforts. These are some factors which i have pasted here from my own blog
good backlinks come from high PR, related sites with the same niche you have...They increase you PR and stats of your sites in general...
