Buildling Links is the Most Important Element for Search Traffic

Looking for some fun? Whatever you do, Don't Click Here!

When people ask me why they aren’t getting traffic or making any sales the first thing I ask them is how many links have you built back to your site. It’s the most important piece of the puzzle and one that many new internet marketers just don’t understand. If you want the search engines to rank you in the results page you have to be building links. Here are a few ways to build some links.

Commenting on blogs is a great way to get anchor text links back to your site. You simply find other blogs that are related to yours, read the content and leave a comment. It sounds simple, and it is, but you have to provide a little value when leaving a comment. You can’t just say, “great site thanks”. That is not a valuable comment and your comment will likely be deleted. Make sure you read the article and then comment on the content or leave a bit of your take on the subject. Put your keywords in the name field of the comment form and it will link to the url creating a backlink.

Article marketing also known as Bum Marketing is a great way to build links to your site. You have what is called a resource box at the bottom of your article. You are allowed to place 2 links to your site within that box. These are what will become your backlinks. Make sure you use keywords in your links within your resource box. Remember it is links back to your site WITH keywords as the anchor text that the search engines are looking for. If you just write click here, that will not help you at all.

RSS submission. If your site has an RSS feed you can use it to build links back to your site as well. You can submit your RSS feed to a number of RSS directories and feed aggregators. This will give you a link back to your site for each post you make. The title is usually the link so make sure you use your keywords in your titles.

Free blogs and other free content platforms are a perfect place for building links. They have so many advantages. They are free to use. You control the content. You control the text in your links. It’s just a win/win. The only downside is you have to do it. You have to come up with some content to put on all these sites, as you aren’t building just one free site, you are building many so you have a variety of sites with good content that you can link to your site from.

I don’t think building links is any marketers favorite part of the internet marketing puzzle. However, if you want to get search traffic to your site and make sales it is imperative you do it. At some point you will be making enough you can begin outsourcing some of the content creation as well as the link building. It’s a goal you can work toward. There are many other ways to build links, these are just a few to get started.
