If you're doing SEO for your site, or anyone else's, then implementing an effective backlinking program is essential for success. If you really want to see tons of free traffic hitting your webpage, then this is the way to go. It's not just a question of any kind of backlink because there are different kinds each with their own quality. Online marketers who are just starting out make the mistake of using ineffective link building methods that don't give results. But if you plan out a link building campaign that has every little piece in place, then you can overtime improve your search engine ranking and also get a higher Google Page Rank. This also creates indirect traffic since every incoming link to your site is an entry point that sends visitors.
The evolution of SEO is such that one-way links are now greatly preferred by Google, and methods such as reciprocal backlinks don't carry the weight they used to. Here are some suggestions for building your links, and they are not rocket science either.
The overall quality of your website and its content is something you have to remember before you worry about creating links. You should take an objective look at your website and its content before you begin any link building campaigns. The fact is, if your site doesn't have content that's good or relevant, backlinks won't do you much good. You might be able to get search engine traffic, but if your visitors have no reason to stay there, it still won't be enough. The fact is, the search engines also consider the content of the site where your links are pointing, so poor content won't get you results. You also want to link only to sites that have quality content that is related to your own site's niche. If your links are not from related sites, they won't help you get ranked by the search engines. There are dofollow and nofollow backlinks, the first one is best but it's also best to mix them up. Just in case you don't k now, the dofollow backlinks allow Google Page Rank (a calculated number) to be passed from the site through the link to your site. There is hyperlink code that is called out either as "nofollow" or "dofollow," and that will either allow or not allow PR to pass. Those are several concepts and terms you must understand if you're new and want to learn SEO. If you're going to do your own link building, then you need to understand that and do use both to look more natural. If you want, you can use plugins with Mozilla browser to check for no/do follow, or you can find tools online that are free to use.
Online discussion forums are yet another opportunity for you to gain backlinks, in this case by placing a link in your forum signature. You should join several popular forums relevant to your niche and become active on them, starting and responding to threads. You can gain the status of an expert after a while, which means people will look at your signature and click on your link. What is especially good about this? This is a completely honest way to build links from sites that have content that is highly relevant to your niche.
In short, link building takes time and effort before you see some real results. You shouldn't give it up by just giving it a try for a few days. Be persistent in your efforts and you will be rewarded with targeted traffic.
