3 most common link building techniques
Links are to a website what water is to fish. You might have heard that content is king but the truth is
“If content is king traffic is god.”
But how can you get this traffic. Links are a bridge to traffic. The way to getting highly targeted traffic is simple just build more links. You can pay someone else to build links for you or simply build them yourselves for free. The second option of building links your self is very easy and effective because you can choose the amount and quality of links you build for your sites. There are various link building methods you choose to build quality back links for your site and they are:
Free and paid directories: Directories are sites which basically functions as a resource list for visitors to find all types of websites. They are the same as telephone number and other directories present in the physical world. You have to just submit to these sites and wait for them to approve your site. When your site is approved you get one back link from the directory. These directories are of many types but the most common types are free and paid. You should use as many free directories as you can but a site should always have some links from paid directories as these go a long way in giving you a higher position is search engine results.
Blog comments: Whenever you submit a comment on a blog with your url, you get a quality back link from the blog. These back links are a great source of traffic for your site. Also if the niche of the blog is same as your niche then you can get serp benefit too.
Blogroll: These are the links which appear on every page of the blog in the side bar. These can be bought (though I don’t advice buying) or can be simply acquired by providing certain services to the blogger or by giving him a link back from your site.
These three are the most common link building methods that are widely used to day. There are many other methods which can also be used like forum signatures, social book marking but these are the most easiest methods to implement when building quality links for you site.
