So the last time you read a really good article on lawn care you linked to it right? Most niches have no bloggers in them – most people don’t blog (or digg or facebook) – that is totally the issue here. Grizz is experimenting again – you might want to check out the comments in his last post. Yes I get plenty of natural links because of my content – but I am writing in the only niche that will happen- because the people reading know what a backlink is! You can rank practially anything with enough backlinks, duplicate content, spam, the lot.

I disagree with the point that content isn’t king, it was and still is today. When you write a truly quality article that is based on a topic that is widely searched and read about you will attract many visits. When people read a good article they feel inclined to share it thus you get bookmarked on digg, delicious, stumble upon etc. if you get a decent amount of attention on a article it can do wonders. Quality content builds backlinks for itself.

Though backlinks are important as they contribute to rankings and such, blog commenting and article submission are great ways to go about building links. Also it would be good practice to ping any links you create which increases the chance of getting those links indexed and gets them indexed faster. The faster they are indexed the faster you reap the benefits.

how can you actually tell if a backlink source is a good one? there are so many things to keep track of – how do you check to see that, for instance, this article sitegets you indexed faster than this other site/blog/hubpagesthing? is there a google trick to it like there is with “site:yoursite.yoursite.com”? or anything

A lot longer than I spend writing the actual blog content! Spend 80% of your time getting links. I keep a list of places I have tried for links – I am getting better at doing that! I have some favourite places where submissions get indexed fast and show up in the Yahoo results quite quickly – so I always start with them now!

Question Liz, how long do you spend getting backlinks? It seems like a huge lot of work, I’m just getting into it now as I’m new to this. Do you have a personal list of places to submit articles, comment on forums etc? or do you just do it randomly or on a whim?
Do you keep track of where you get backlinks so do you just do it on a whim? Can you ever tell if a backlink source (eg a forum, or a blog comment) is doing you any good, or is it all of a muchness?

“Content is king” has been the touted golden rule for so long, but it never made much sense to me, at least in terms of a static website. You build a site and create pages. It’s not like you have the constant necessity to keep creating pages or changing out the home page. Content is important to attract visitors; visitors will land on your site if they are interested in the topic. But to think it is “king”…sheeeet.

As you stated, backlinks is the key – at least for now (who knows what the future brings). I don’t think it is really necessary that backlinks come from websites / blogs that are related to your own site or blog, as is often suggested. How would the search engines know the topic? Sure, they pick up keywords, but not actual topics. Isn’t a backlink a backlink ???

By the way, you mentioned a few sources that I never heard of. Thanks for the tips.

Another advantage of Ezine is that you may get some targeted traffic they may end of clicking on your ads. Kind of a double bonus since you are getting good links too.

One of the most inexpensive ways to get backlinks is to write articles and submit them to various article directories
