Suggestions needed on link building campaign...
-
Getting links has become very difficult task for me.
Recently i have started a website on Depression and Anxiety.
My campaign steps:
1)Hired a doctor to write stuff on my website.
2)After that we did 100 more articles for article marketing.
3)Submitted content to top article directories.. All links to only 1 anchor (domainname.com). I haven't promoted my domain with main anchor anywhere.
- DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO
Can anyone suggest me some link building methods so that i can do Good SEO for my new site?

I would suggest not to over do any one kinds of link building. Like you mentioned 100 more articles for article marketing. I woud continue to build quality content instead.
Are users interacting with your content ? Can you do a listing in some other authority websites ? Look into the possibility of some info-graphics in the Depression/Anxiety niche.

To add to Rebekah's usefull suggestions. Recently I have published a free eBook. Searching for "Free eBooks" and similar returns plenty of sites that solicit submissions, many of which will include your link be that to your site or to the page on your site the free eBook can be downloaded. Some of them say they are "authority sites" and according to Open Site Explorer have Page rank of 70 and above such as free-ebooks dot net
Although writing a decent eBook is time consuming and takes work, it seems easier to get accepted so long as its a subject area you are competant in an it doesn't look spammy. Judging by your subject area this looks like an approach you could take.

Some ideas...
Create a resource list of important information for people suffering from depression/anxiety. Include suicide hotline numbers, a checklist like "warning signs your friend or family member may be suffering from depression", links about the different types of depression, create a quick quiz people can take "Do you suffer from depression?" , how to talk to your doctor about depression, - etc.
Create an area where people can submit first hand experiences about dealing with depression/anxiety.
Create a "friends and family" area so people can learn how to help those they care about,
Contact authority sites that deal with these issues and share your resource list.
Find a lot of statistics about those disorders and write up a report/detailed post about your findings.
Find bloggers who write about their struggles with depression/anxiety and interview them.
Create badges people can put on their website - like breast cancer awareness, but make new ones for depression/anxiety awareness.
That's all from the top of my head.

Do you need a place to ditch bad links?
This is not a question as such, more a gift 🙂 I have registered a domain name to ditch bad links. For example, let's pretend I have a page on my site: www.mydomain.com/viagra and have never done any good SEO to promote this page, just a load of spammy directory links. The page used to rank for Viagra but then Google took manual action and I lost my ranking. Booo! Now the page is of no use to me until I get all these links removed and the manual action revoked. Even then, I'll be starting from scratch re-building good links to the page. Here's another option, simply re-direct the url to badlinksbin.com and say goodbye to all those spammy links. This bypasses the lengthy link removal process. Warning: I wouldn't recommend using this method if you have some good links in the mix, unless you can contact the site owners and get the links changed. And, don't forget to change the name of the url first so the Viagra page still exists on your site. As I've already set this up, I thought no harm sharing it and letting you guys use it too. I hope it helps some people.

Should I become a regular contributor to help my SEO link building?
I've been offered the opportunity to contribute to a blog as often as I want and have a link included at the bottom of each post. Will this be much help to me in my link building SEO campaign? As I understand it more links from different root domains are what really count? So 20 links each from a different site is more valuable that 20 links from one site? Should I take up this opportunity or are my efforts best spent elsewhere?

Link Building for Landing Page
Hey Guys, I have a client that is launching a website in about 2-3 months time. They have had a flash site for the last 4 years and have had no SEO/Link Building to the site and are now going to undertake my services for Content Strategy, Social Strategy and Link Building. In the interim (from now till the next 3 months) they will be launching a "coming soon" landing page. What I want to know is when doing their initial link building do I just concentrate on brand related links through local directories with the aim of getting a few local keyterms? Or should we be deploying a longer term strategy of going after the competitive keyterms now? Thanks,

Link Building & Juice
I have a corporate client which has multiple franchises, therefore microsites (www.example.com/cityname) within their corporate website(www.example.com). I am trying to build some links for these microsites that are lot weaker than the corporate web page in terms of PA. We worked hard putting most of these locations into local directories such as Google places and yahoo local, but the ones on yahoo local are all pointing to www.example.com even when you search a specific city when it suppose to be www.example.com/cityname. So first thought is to edit all of the yahoo locals to the microsite webpages for every locations but then I thought that wasn't a good idea since I will split the juice passed to the corporate website www.example.com. The corporate website is really important and wouldn't want to weaken its PA. Can someone tell me what are my options in order to not hurt the corporate website and to improve ranking for these weak microsites? should I still edit those yahoo listings to the microsite website or not? if not what how will I be able to build more links? Thank you!!

What are your favorite link building tools?
I know there are a bunch out there, but I'd love to hear your guys thoughts. The more tools you post, and the more unknown they are (i.e. everyone knows OSE, Raven Tools, Buzzstream, Ontolo, etc.), the more I'd love the answer. Also, it doesn't have to be a comprehensive tool. Even if it's a bookmarklet, or something that solves one specific tedious task, I'd love to hear about it! 🙂

Link building strategy - black hat or white hat?
I have a competitor who always ranks very on alot keywords relevant to our business and using Open Site Explorer I note they have a tremendous amount of links. I also noticed that it appears their web company has gone out and set up numerous websites with relevant content, and then have linked back to the competitors main site. Is this kosher? I ask because before I settled on my current domain name, I purchased several keyword rich domain names; should I be thinking of setting up websites with relevant (and original) content and link back to my main site?
