13 Tested One Way Link Building Tips

You know how important incoming links become in affecting search engine ranking for a particular keyphrase. Time is limited and you need to achieve good result in quick time. I’ve tested various link building tips over the years and found the following 13 ways that can have killer effect on your search engine ranking.

But before that, always keep in mind that search engine likes quality incoming links and you need to build link trust. Don’t go for spam links.

So, your primary objective will be

  1. To get links with anchor text of keyphrases that you target.
  2. To get links with related and polynyms keyphrases as anchor text.
  3. To get links that look natural and with no patterns.

1. Three way link exchange

Search engine always look for one way links for judging the credibility of a website. But that’s a really tough and time consuming job. Engaging yourself in three way Linking procedure from relevant websites with targeted keywords as anchor texts within the relevant content. Specially targeting relevant web pages and blog posts. Also getting links from the pages where your competitor left their link can be good idea. You can use “google alerts” to ping you for relevant links.

2. Article Marketing

Negotiating with webmasters to put your article in their websites can be a good way to get relevant links. You can offer them to print their articles on your websites just like you do for three way link exchange

3. Article submission

Put your niche article (with targeted keywords as anchor texts) in different article warehouses those allow re-print of articles and you get lots of free links once your article is taken for reprint on other sites.

4. Web Directory submission

Website submission in free web directories where every link is reviewed by humans before making it live is an easy way to get one way links. You will find most of the free directories having low PR/no PR at all and you may think what’s the use of it. I’d say they wouldn’t be free anymore if they achieve considerable PR. :) I feel that a directory is good if they employ proper link review process for every submitted link.

5. Forum links and signature

Put your website link in forum post where you discuss a relevant issue and you know that your website has a relevant page for the forum members to know about the topic. Don’t spam it. Also you can use your website link in your account signature. It is also an easy way to get free link and traffic as well.

6. Using social networks

Join different social networks and make lots of online friends and engage them to build link relationship with you. Make them understand what is the importance of it.

7. Links from Blog directories

Now a days blogs are the most important and successful web2.0 platforms to make your online presence. Submit your blog in different blog directories.

8. Submitting themes and web templates

Make website templates, blog themes and publish in different template and theme directories. Mostly you get a free link to website in author/publisher name. If your template/theme is catchy, you will get lots of downloads and free links.

9. Press Releases

Release news stuff for your websites or any niche industry news in different press release websites. Although most of the those websites have become paid and charge some bucks for placing visible links, you can own some free links and good exposure on the web.

10. Niche blog comments

Browse for blogs which provide “Dofollow” links and put a good comment there relevant to the post and get a free link. Take help from “dofollow searcher tools”. Most of the comment links are made with “nofollow” tag. These tools will help you to find those links which are readable by the search engines.

11. Promoting through RSS feed directories

Create a RSS feed for your website with important news and put it in different RSS search engines/RSS listing websites. Once your RSS is crawled by their bots, you will get an active free link to your website.

12. Link Baiting

Create something that is buzzing to people and you will automatically win backlinks from other sites when people talk about it, blogging it, discuss it on different forums. Here is a must read simple link bait article for you. But remember it’s the hardest job to get links because you don’t know what people will like.

13. Using web2.0 platforms and social networks

Make online friends by joining discussion forums, blogger communties (blogcatalog, mybloglog), social bookmarking (del.icio.us,stumbleupon), social networks (craigslist, yahoo answers, google groups, squidoo, digg) and get tons of free one way incoming links.
