Learn about Link building

jimmyhagan11
in Google
I have developed a site with around 8 inner pages. I know about on-page SEO, but someone suggested that I should also consider off-page SEO as it is very important for search engines to find a newly established site. I want to try out link building. Can anyone please guide me with the different ways for building quality and relevant links? All I know is that link building can be achieved through directory submission and by submitting links in industry specific websites and authoritative websites. Should I also create a blog on the site? Apart from these, what are the factors that I need to concentrate on?

    You should loose the directories from your list, or at least focus on niche directories. A blog on your website is a good idea, as it will give you the opportunity to add fresh content to your website, nut you'd need to find a way to bring part of it to index. You can try linkwheels and alternatives. Provided your site fits into specific industry niches, you can try article submitting, social bookmarking, classifieds, etc.That's providing your onpage seo is done correctly, and you don't have too many issues there. However, 8 pages might mean a low level of content. SEO means Search Engine Optimization. In order to optimize something, you'd need to have something to optimize. :)

    have directories always been bad?

    NO. Hence the confusion nowadays. the trouble with directories is that most tend to become link farms, with no regard for quality, and with inner pages not even crawled. Plus, they don't fit in the natural links regime.

    in link building i believe, the best method of increase links is ; cross link exchange and social bookmarking, forum posting and article marketing is also good for it.

    not all directories are bad, but there are only few that are good. But I still find directory submission a good one, it doesn't your website anyway.

    Clearly this is a SPAM post - anyone with an ounce of SEO experience knows that one-way links are what carry weight these days - not reciprocal links.

    10 years ago search engines did not distinguish between the 2 very well, but due to sites such as these Google changed its algorithms to give much more weight to one-way links.

    The best links are the natural links that users who visit your website make. These can be difficult to achieve at first so you can use a reputable company to distribute articles you have wrote (interesting ones about the subject in hand) to good quality article sites.

    Also you can pay an arm and a leg to get good quality on-way links to your website (on websites with a decent PageRank, relevant content and minimum external links), which will go a long way to helping your PageRank.

    If you want to know more I wrote an article on what link building is and also a kinda link building campaign guide

    (that is gonna make me look spammy - but at least it is correct and good information)

    Definitely - social networking and social bookmarking can be fantastic ways of link building.

    Sites like Digg and Delicious are great for this....

    The most important this is to do linkbuilding on a regular basis. Like 20 links a day. Otherwise Google might raise the red flag if it sees a one time backlinks burst.

    You should write fresh article/content to you blog because google like unique and fresh contents which get crawl faster. you should do reciprocal link building to high pr websites, beside this you can do blog commenting, article submission, social bookmarking to get back links.

    SEO is like many other things that are not based on FACT - it is subjective - if we had all the facts we wouldn't need a forum - so it is opinion, sometimes tried, but never fact so it is good practice to use words like apparently, as I understand, so I hear, as I read etc etc when making bold statements.

    backlinks have MUCH more weight than reciprocal links ?? Matt Cutts must have mis read his script on the subject - Google appear to have accepted that they cannot effectively distinguish a bad (spammy) reciprocal link from a good one YET - they can determine that it is reciprocal but that is all - so hence they are not penalizing reciprocal links in a general sense - they are penalizing excessive linking, regardless of whether one way or recip. Having 50 quality and authoratative reciprocal links is better than 300 inbound links of not quite the same quality (site is selling shoes, 50 recip links from shoe manufacturers / fashion magazines versus 300 from, well, from ?? - I know which I would take. Google apparently cannot definitively tell if a recip link from shoes.com to/from robertkajinzski.net.br is spam or os robert a retired respected shoe designer? Relevence plays a big part in links BUT non relevant links do not get you penalized, you just dont earn brownie points for them.So it is tantamount to being incorrect to make broad statements as you did. It is always good to elaborate a statement, Google loves that, quality content.

    I am not so sure that Google ranks links from Social sites all that highly for the similar reason attributed to directories - they are so easy to get, spend a few hours a day for a week and you can generate a gazillion - it is amazing the percentage of people that just click approve to a friends request then bingo they have 30 friend and so on - human nature - and in the greater majority of cases the pages have no relevance whatsoever to a website content - so again apparently not discounted by Google but appearently not highly rated either -(today, were some years ago - like many aspects in Googles thinking, it is fluid and continually changes). Social sites are good (better) for traffic generation which is their main value as far as page ranking goes.

    So there are some thoughts - and that is just what they are, my thoughts and opinions open to comment.

    cheers,
    Mike

    p.s. Sorry Steve - I had to delete the links in your quote in this post because I am yet to be permitted to post links - LOL, all I was doing was copying yours and got smacked

    If you want indexing of inner pages also;Do bookmarking of internal pages at social bookmarking website.Article marketing,directory submission,press release submission as well as links from relative sites will help your site to rank higher in Google.
