More Ways to Link Build

Yesterday I mentioned a few of the easier ways to build links.  Today I want to cover a few of the more complicated ones.

Directory Submissions: There are 100's of directories you can submit your site to that are free and a few that have a fee.  Do a Google search for Directory Submissions and start submitting your site.

Article Marketing:  This technique is useful in two ways.  You can create amazing articles that contain links to your site.  People will be so impressed with your information that they will visit your site and perhaps buy your product or service. 

Or you can write articles solely for the purpose of providing links to your site. The articles don't have to be of high quality as the main purpose is to simply get links to your site.  The search engines will see your links in either case and they will be added to your backlink count. 

Of course the downside is that you have to write articles.  And each one you submit must be unique as the search engines don't like duplicate content. If you only submit one article I would suggest EzineArticles  as the place to submit it.  They are the most respected site on the net. 

Article submission takes some work but they can result is quality backlinks.

High Page Rank LInks:  Seek out blogs that have a high PR and make relevant comments using your anchor text as your "Name".

.Edu & .Gov Links:  The search engines place a high value on links that come from government and education sources like universities.  But remember that the domain must end in .edu or .gov.  Such as the Small Business Administration www.sba.gov  or the University of Texas at El Paso  www.utep.edu  Many times students or professors will have a blog sponsored by the school and you can leave comments on it with your anchor text as your name.  Some government agencies have blog that you can comment on as well.

While these sources of backlinks require some work they are well worth the effort to build  well rounded baclinks!
