Inbound and Outbound Links Equal Link Love!

Are you sharing the link love?  Many seo guys out there think that having no external links to competitor sites is the way to go….and no you are wrong, very wrong. You have to have outgoing links on your site or Google will know that something is not quite right about your website.  Linking to other sites that have similar content and that are in the same market or niche that you are in is a basic yet still very integral part of building your web sites popularity and authority in the search engines.

You don’t have to link to competition but many times, you competitors are the best places to link out to. You can simply put links to these sites in an “out of the way” location on your site or get setup as an affiliate with them and if you lose a customer the the link, you still get paid.  The point is, not matter what you website needs outbound links and these links must point to other relevant sites.  So pick and choose carefully. You can find the most beneficial sites to link to by doing a simple search on your set of keywords.  What sites show up?  These sites are the authority sites on your topic, so link them up.

Choosing the right sites to link out to is as important as choosing quality sites for inbound linking. So if you are one of those guys who is being stingy with your links, it may be time to show a little link love.  Google will of course reward your with some love of its own if you do this correctly and don’t go overboard with outbound links.  A handful of outbound links is plenty, there is no reason to list hundreds of links, any page with many links looses “weight” or value on a per link basis.  It is all about balance in the end.

Have fun getting your page to the top of the search engines results page and have fun sharing your link love!

3 Simple Link Building Methods

Posted by SEO Tips in Link Building, SEO Techniques, View Seo on October 28th, 2009

View SEO always tries to help the new guy first.  SEO is not an easy game to play, but if you don’t know where to start, you will never succeed, so if you are an SEO expert, yes we understand this article is basic, we have plenty of high end seo methodology coming soon!

If you are new to Search Engine Optimization or “SEO” as you will see it from time to time, you may not be familiar with what link building is or how to go about it.  So lets get started here.

So What Is Link Building?

In a nutshell Link Building is just the process of creating links on other web sites that direct web site traffic back to your site.  However there is a little more to it than that.

Why Is Link Building Important?

Search engines like Google.com Yahoo.com and Bing.com also use the amount of links that point to any particular site as a measure of the value of a site against the keyword used in a link.  All this means is that the more links that use the same keyword or keyword phrase that point to your site, the higher it may rank in the search engines for that same phrase.

Now, of course there are other factors that come into play here, but this is one of the biggest factors that will determine your sites standings on search engines results pages, besides on page content.

There is no more basic seo strategy than link building, this is one of the most integral skills you will learn and refine as you become an SEO expert!

3 Simple Link Building Methods

O.K. lets get down to it.  There are many, many ways that you can get free links and there are also many ways you can build links for free. We are only going to cover the most effective free methods here, you can spend your money elsewhere…

  1. Social Bookmarking – Yes, these sites are actually created for nothing more than sharing links to your favorite sites.  So why not share links to your own site?  Well, this is true, but be forewarned that you cannot just add a hundred links to your own sites, you must also add links to other sites that are of interest to you or you will be seen as a spammer.Sites In This Category Are: Digg.com Reddit.com StumbleUpon.com Mixx.com and Delicious.com
  2. Forum Posting – This is in some peoples minds an old and out of date method in which to acquire valuable back links.  Not True!
    So how do you go about getting a back link to your site on a forum?  Simple, sign up for a few forums and start posting, keep in mind that the more value you bring to your messages the more chance of you getting direct traffic from the forum members.  You can go to your user account or your profile and setup a link to your site in the signature on most any forum in the world.  Not all allow this, so make sure to read the user agreement first, just in case.
  3. Blog Commenting – This is a very similar method to forum posting, but still very different.  There are many different types of blogs out there and there are many different types commenting forms for readers to submit to.  There is no guarantee that your link will find its way to the comment section of a blog, most will have to be approved by the site administrator first, so make sure that you add value to your comment so they will want to post it.  This is a great way to zero in on your target audience though, search for blogs that are in the same niche as your own site and start reading and commenting.
  1. You can get your first link on this very post if you like.  If there are no comments yet, at the bottom of this article you will see “Leave A Comment” and if there is already comments here, you will see “Comments” followed by the number of comments.  Click This and Leave Your Comment On Our Article and of Course Your Link!

I know that this is a very basic methodology, but we all have to start somewhere.  I hope that somebody found this useful and it helps you on your way to more traffic, a more successful website and your journey to become an seo expert!
