How to get Backlinks

The factor that plays a very important role in the SEO field is a back link. The more effectively you get back links for your blog or site the more traffic it gets. More time should be invested for getting back links.

Most of the readers reading this blog are beginners and are not interested in buying links or may not have money to invest to buy these links. So how to get these back links without investing. There are a few techniques for that.

The first one is by using article sites and I think many of them must be familiar with technique. The more article sites you use the more juice you get. The first step is to make a list of free article sites where you can post your article with a back link to your site. When ever you have a new post for your blog just rewrite it and post it in all the article sites in your list. I already gave a list of a few article sites in one of my previous posts.

Article sites will have a very good ranking and whenever your article gets a good rank they will be indexed on the main which has a good rank and this gets you a back link from the ranked page.

The next technique which can be followed for obtaining free back links is through link exchange. For this you have to contact the people with good pr blogs. It depends on how you tackle them. If you can convince them you can have a back link from their blog. But better prefer a one way linking. Try to offer them a link from another blog of yours as link exchange may not add much juice.

Now we come to the most preferred technique used mostly these days. It is the usage of the WEB 2.0 sites or the social networks like mix.com, digg.com, propeller.com. You just have to post your article or a post on that site and they will be open for all viewers and if you get more votes then your page may get indexed in the front pages.

You can also use Squidoo and hubpages for getting back links. Google likes site like these and they get easily indexed on Google and gives you more juice. Just build a squidoo lens of a hubpage and put some back links to your site. Don’t forget to get some back links for them also.

The above discussed are the free techniques to get back links. Of course to beat the competitive keywords you need to have a back links from high pr sites and for that you need to have some investment. That’s why I suggest for beginners to select an easy keyword and optimize using these free techniques. After you start getting some money investment can be made to buy links and focus on competitive keywords.

In my next post I’ll explain how to buy links and which sites are to be preferred for buying and techniques involved in that process.
