SEO PART 3- LINK BUILDING

SEO PART 3- LINK BUILDING

Before you start reading, I will advise you to stop all you are doing and pay total attention to what you are reading(if is free but valuable).

Link building is a very important factor in SEO, in fact, I call it the backbone of SEO. Link building is the second most important factor in SEO(out of over 300) search engines consider, even though content is king, you can dominate the search engines with just a sentence on your website if your link building is properly done.

SOME FACTS TO CONSIDER:

  1. Link building is the second most important factor is SEO
  2. Quality matters not Quantity
  3. Link building if not properly done can get your website penalized: some people say no to this (usually blackhats who are experts in doing this) but I can assure this is the absolute truth with a capital YES.

If you decide not to invest your time(or money) into building links to your website then I can assure you that you are digging your SEO grave because there are so many SEOrs(search engine optimizers) better than me and you : which means they will always optimize their website(both on-page and off-page), they have the best titles, their meta tags are put in place, there is no indexing problem with their website: so you now see your need for building links(SEO PART 3).

Quality matters not Quantity: Consider this; if your president recommends you or a thousand friends (who are in no position of power) recommends you who, do you think will matter most (I won’t answer that for you).

Getting a link from a pagerank 7 site is better than getting 1000 links from different pagerank 1 sites because a link from a pagerank 7 site will make your site a pagerank 6 site while 1000 links from a pagerank 1 site will make your website a pagerank 4 or 5(hope you see the difference).

NOTE: I am not saying you should only be looking for high pagerank sites because this will cripple your SEO efforts, a pagerank 7 link to your website will give you pagerank 6 but cannot give you the search engine rank 1000 pagerank 1 websites will give you: in a short form, lets say your website is on page 10 for a specific keyword, 1 pagerank 7 link will take it to page 5 or 4 while 1000 pagerank 1 links will keep it on page 1 number 1 for a very long time(hope you see the difference). Also, it is very important to have links to your sites from some special sites such as .edu .gov and .mil sites because Google and some other search engines consider these sites as an authority.

Blog commenting is also another way to gain relevant backlinks to your site, it is very important not to spam the blogs because all spam posts will eventually be deleted. A good way to utilize blog commenting is by entering your website in the website field because this will automatically give your website a backlink which might eventually lead to a pagerank (who knows).

Also, it is very important to know that link building if not properly done can get a website penalized (not banned as some people say) so it is better not to rush your link building. The following is a good practice to consider:

  1. As a starter don’t post more than 50 links to your website a day.
  2. Make sure your link building is consistent i.e.  if you will build 50 links a day, make sure it is consistent (50 links everyday)
  3. Use your anchor text effectively i.e. don’t use the same anchor text always, use different anchor texts in order to make your link building natural.
  4. Deep linking is very important i.e. don’t link to your homepage only but also link to other important pages on your website.

With all the above done properly I congratulate you for your better rankings. If you love this article or you do not know where to start, I will like you to check my other post about MAKING MONEY ONLINE FAST

I think web directories will always play an important roll in link building. Yes some link directories are poor quality and may not carry much weight but there are still many strong ones out there. I think the important thing to do is make sure your backlink strategy is diverse. Building all your

Man!!! link building is the most difficult part of SEO. What do you think? By the way what’s the first important factor for optimization? Is it keywords?

You are saying that a link from page rank 7 will get your page rank 6. How can you be so sure? I mean does not the location of the link make any difference?

@Make Online Money, Keyword research is a very vital aspect of SEO and should be considered first if you really want to have success. It is the keyword you know that you will rank for.
Concerning the pagerank aspect, i personally tested and confirmed this with two different sites.

I used to leaving comment in others blog. While building up the link, i can learn from what i reading in others blog. However, please do not try to spam others blog. This will terribly affect your reputation in blogosphere.
