Backlink Building Places

Where can I go to get follow backlinks to my site to improve my DA and PA, etc?
-
I am in the real estate business, and I am trying to get three key phrases to rank well for azbestlistings.com homes for sale in casa grande az, homes for sale in mesa az, and homes for sale in yuma az.
These three key phrases are cities that I and two other realtors work separately. We all have our own city on the team. Hence, I want to get myself into the first 5. However, I am coming nowhere near page 1 for these key phrases, so I figured from what everybody tells me I need back links.
I work all day long as a realtor, so my brain is not super focused by the time I sit down to do my seo work. Basically working two long jobs, so if somebody says go back linking I say ok, but just where do I do it in the quickest and smartest way since I do not have a ton of time to do it.
Each agent is responsible for working their city or city pages.

Why are you trying to increase your DA & PA? DA & PA are just metrics created by SEOMoz to help you get a rough idea of what a page/site's authority is. Raising these numbers should never be an end goal in and of themselves.
Getting good follow links all depends on your niche. Are there any blogs in your niche or related niches which you can guest post for? Any niche specific portals or directories? Do you have any friends or business partners that might link to you?
If you're looking for link building strategies in general, check this article out, it's VERY comprehensive:
-
My first major comment will be to choose wisely, shop around and make sure any SEO company you take on explains how they go about the link building strategy. Source someone local, or at least in your own country who understands you, your needs and your business environment.
Secondly, you should consider what you are already doing - or think about what you should do. i.e.
- Are you becoming part of communities online?
- Are you contributing to blogs or writing some great content that relates to your website
- What are you doing to engage people on social media
- Do you know what your competitors are doing - so you can learn the good stuff and avoid the junk?
Your question sounds simple, but you need to balance knowing what you can (and maybe should) be doing yourself, while taking on a business you can work closely with who will help you on this front.

Will Testimonial Backlinks Work?
Hey guys, I am pretty new to the whole SEO thing. I did have an idea though. There are things that I like, IE restaurants in my neighbourhood. If I did a testimonial for say, my local pizza place that I really like, with a backlink to my site, would that be useful. IE "Jimmys pizza makes the best pizza in the neighbourhood by far

Best Methods - Link Building
We are having more and more "new" customers coming to us who have been hit by various algorithms imposed by google. After we have run a site health check and corrected everything, we plan and come up with a link development plan which suits the clients needs. Much of out link development work is safe comprising of; 1. Guest Blog Posts - where we develop creative content with the customer to publish. 2. Industry blog posts - where bloggers write about i.e. "the company" 3. Social media - posting pictures, commenting on forums, etc 4. Paid directories with authority We don't develop links in any other way and it brings results in the long term. Is anyone out there doing something else? Link building can sometimes be like walking on a tight rope. Thanks and happy holidays Gary - Elite Group Marketing London

Best place to outsource backlinking services?
Hi, I have been doing "lite" SEO on my site for several years and have achieved some decent ranking for relevant terms. I have good solid content and and am simply in need of quality backlinks to boost my SERPs. I stopped doing SEO because I was focused on development of the site for about 6 months and lost about half of my traffic as a result. In the past I have used rentacoder, guru, and odesk for software development, but does anyone know the best one to find decent SEO consultant/content writers? I want to start out at about $300/month for back links and ramp up from there. Also, The last company I hired provided almost all links from India spam sites, however, I still noticed a steady increase in rankings over a few months. Thought on thats? Thanks!
