Hi I have been reading conflicting advice on what type of link to concentrate on - some say directory links, others internal links (to a degree) now focus on social book marks Can anyone help?
You can't rely on only one type of method. You never know when SE algorithms devalue those type of backlinks.. Say, you got 1000s of links from social bookmarking website and google stopped counting them (or all of them went nofollow, some of them already did) Get a mix of all type of links if you want to see any benefits.
yes i agree completely only one method cannot solely help you a combined method of various SEO techniques help in this which includes social bookmarking,directory submissions,article submissions etc.. ankur
Diversify the links, change up the anchor text..hopefully by link building for more than just one page. Remember to try and stick with sites that are relative to your niche!
