If you have been in SEO or internet marketing for long, you have probably heard the well-worn mantra of “Whoever has the most links wins!” Guess what? – its still true!
Essential Link Building
Link strategies have come to be an integral part of successful internet marketing. And from the looks of it, that is not going away any time soon, if ever. So how do you jump in? Where can you get the benefit from Link Building? A while ago I was involved in a discussion that led to us building a list of 100 ways to get links. THis included everything from article marketing, to developing Wordpress themes, all the way to hosting your own TV show! So while not everybody has the capacity to use all of them, there were still some really good nuggets there. So I figured I’d give you some of them! (For those of you in Stompernet you can get the entire list here and if you are not in Stompernet I strongly encourage you to join!)
So here it is – 20 ways to get links to your site. ya I edited out some of the more Geeky stuff like Proxy servers and software creation – but I’m sure this will spark some imagination and ideas!
1. Directories
2. Article Marketing.. submitting to ezinearticles.com and other article directories
3. Web 2.0 .. creating a subdomain on wordpress and adding an article with links to it that links to your sites.
4. Blogs .. creating a blog and posting articles that link to your site.
5. Blog commenting and Forum commenting
6. Social Media Profiles Marketing. Creating profiles and putting links in the profiles back to your site.
7. Video Marketing
8. Guest Blog Posts… offering a guest blog post in exchange for links back to your site.
9. Recip link exchanges.. still works if done right.
10. Art. exchanges.. exchanging articles with other websites. (different than guest blog posts)
11. Trackback urls … Posting on your blog and citing sites that have trackback urls enabled.
12. Authority Site Article Marketing.. writing quality content you submit one time to sites such as ehow.
13. PR Pumper sites. Creating mini sites of 5-20 pages that have articles on them that link back to your sites.
