Link Building is a Slow and Steady Science
I will admit it, I’ve become a little obsessed…. I have been looking at options on a daily basis and almost by the hour for different ways to assist in many different levels of Link building. I feel like a MAD SCIENTIST digging and studying the best options in development and results.. At the end of the day does it really matter what we have LOOKED FOR or what we have actually developed? Google does not see that we have emailed our buddies asking for link exchanges, only that the link is there and proper or NOT… Results and relevance!
However, this is EXACTLY what it takes to build QUALITY. Quality links, quality content, substantial ranking improvements… TIME and patience…
Google is changing the game all of the time, so link building that worked last year or maybe even last month is just not ok…..
Here are some tips I have gathered in order to build an effective link building campaign:
Directory Links:
SEOMOZ offers a HUGE list of both tracking tools and direct links to the resources for the submission of your business to the directory..
Press Releases:
Be real careful not to fall into the same trap most do and begin spinning your stuff out of control. Keep it unique and submit your press to reputable resources. PR Web, for example, has many different pricing options and they help with moderation for those that want to get their word out but lack the skill set of a professional writer.
If you’re feeling frisky, there are AUTO LINK CAMPAIGNS out there. But you run the risk upon using that they will beat you up and load you down with garbage links that will cost you more to get rid of than it did to get them! The old saying “ if it sounds too good to be true; IT IS” rings true.
So again, patience and consistency is the name of the game. If you’re digging for the ever elusive golden link pile that will rocket your site to the stars, you’re better off following the rainbow to the pot of gold with the little Green Guy…
