At\u00a0, we certainly do not think Linkbuilding is \u201cspam\u201d \u2013 in fact it is an essential part of the SEO business (as competitors like\u00a0,and\u00a0\u00a0will testify to), a laborious but invaluable process which spreads the word of your site out about the World Wide Web. We have wide experience in this field having provided for a number of different sites with very different needs (including\u00a0and\u00a0) and thus can give you the up-to-date lowdown on the underrated process.<\/p>\n
Some might refer to linkbuilding as merely \u201cposh spamming\u201d, but to call it such is to disregard with ignorance a very useful device for your\u00a0. The aim of the process is to spread links to your site around the web amongst high Google-ranked websites (which will in turn help your page ranking) and highly relevant ones (which will spread the name of the site and increase traffic).\u00a0Whilst spamming is largely done by spambots and is for the most part incoherent, therefore unlikely to invite clicks, linkbuilding is well written and aims to attract user traffic as well as pleasing the venerable Mr. Google!<\/p>\n
Linkbuilding is highly-targeted, and is best focussed on the better-rated sites within Google\u2019s PageRank system \u2013 if you create lots of links in spam sites that have ranking \u201c0\u201d or close this will reflect badly in your own Google ranking thanks to the complex algorithms that work out such rankings. In the same way though, lots of links from the better rated sites (maybe a CNN news article or even Wikipedia) will really boost your own PageRank in time.<\/p>\n
Keep a record of where you have posted and your username and password so you can track back if necessary (when you can get the site to email you when you have replies \u2013 it\u2019s a great way to keep conversations going and increase the validity of your post) \u2013 Google Spreadsheets is a very useful tool for doing this and sharing it, but Excel is very useful too if you prefer. Don\u2019t forget to also record the exact link of your post \u2013 it can save a lot of time being able to click straight to your direct post rather than have to trawl through the site\u2019s many pages to dig it out again! Below is an example of a well-ordered spreadsheet for linkbuilding:<\/p>\n
The first thing you must do when starting your linkbuilding is decide on a focus \u2013 if you are website selling cars, then you obviously want to aim to target motoring-related websites.\u00a0It is possible to buy long lists of related links to a keyword from certain SEO websites that you can add to a spreadsheet and trawl through link by link. Unfortunately, a large number of these sites contained in the lists will not be commentable \u2013 in other words you will not be able to post your link anywhere on the pages. A bit of navigation can often bring up a forum, news article or blog post where posts can be made \u2013 usually the only real sources to do so \u2013 although sometimes the site will additionally disable HTML coding (so the anchor text will not work) or links to other sites entirely. To make the process even trickier some sites will moderate each comment before it is posted, so it is a good idea to ensure the quality and relevance of your post before you send it or they might delete it.<\/p>\n
To optimise our linkbuilding services at\u00a0\u00a0we are building up a large database of websites where links are able to be posted, with the site\u2019s theme or genre recorded, and thus the targeted linkbuilding process is quicker and a lot less laborious. This is what other SEO agencies such as\u00a0has done, we aim to rival their services in this field with our fresh expertise.<\/p>\n
Before starting your work, it is a good idea to have a main keyword focus for your linkbuilding. For example, with our work with\u00a0, our posts and comments focus on targeted keywords like \u201cbaby\u201d, \u201cparenting\u201d and \u201cpregnancy\u201d. For the purposes of branding we also try and ensure lots of anchor text contains the name \u201cGurgle\u201d \u2013 so we might post a link through the text \u2013\u00a0. It is a good idea to gauge your audience and the relevance of your anchor text before just piling keywords into your links…links like\u00a0\u00a0can put people off somewhat!<\/p>\n
You can create these links using either;<\/p>\n
which will usually be accepted by the site your are posting on (though not always!) \u2013 all the links you see on this blog post are anchored within such code so you can\u2019t see the destination url.<\/p>\n
It is possible to vary your anchor text a bit, indeed it is a good idea to do so \u2013 you might see a news article on a site where a link from your own site is very much relevant, and therefore you can post straight through to that exact page. This is an excellent way to get traffic to your site, as by posting something relevant and interesting more people will be inclined to read and comment back on it.<\/p>\n
A cheekier anchor text to try and increase traffic is by saying something like \u201cI saw a better one LINK>here At\u00a0, we certainly do not think Linkbuilding is \u201cspam\u201d \u2013 in fact it is an essential part of the SEO business (as competitors like\u00a0,and\u00a0\u00a0will testify to), a laborious but invaluable process which spreads the word of your site out about the World Wide Web.
