What should be the step after building links?
-
Hello,
I regularly build links and save them in excel file. But I don't know what should I do after building them? Should I ping them? Share on social media or leave until they are not indexed?
thanks

It's not necessary to ping the links often, but I put a reminder and revise them from time to time.Of course, key information and global SEO changes mentioned in guest posts need to be updated.

As usual your response are well contented. Thank you. I will look into these.

Thank you Chris,
Links are coming from guest posts, business listings and general links like videos.

Improve the article. Keep it up-to-date.
Be on the look-out for additional information that will enable improvement. Read topic-area blogs and news about your product lines. Search periodically to stay up-to-date.
Attend professional meetings and obtain additional training in the general topic areas of your website.
Most people look for SEO information to improve their website, but the real gold is in the industries and topic areas of your products or the subjects that you write about.

Hi Kate,
I never ping the links I build, i don't see it worth. If they are shared in social media it's much better, specially if they are shared by many people.
As you do, I would just save them on an excel file taking note about the date it began to be online in the web, the anchor text, if it's follow or nofollow and the type of web where is it. This list can serve you to build links moderately and irregularly in time to seem more natural,to control if some links or webs disappear, to build links of the type of link or anchor you need more (exact anchor, phrase anchor...). Here you have a good article about the anchor text: https://ahrefs.com/blog/anchor-text/
You can also use this list to do second-tier link building, pointing with these new links (tier 2) to the first links you created. I leave you here an article from Julie Joyce about this:

Good luck!

You just sit back and let the money pile up!
Just kidding... There are plenty of applications out there that will ping your backlinks regularly if you want but there's not really that much to do once a link is established other than maybe maintaining a relationship with the webmaster/owner of the sites that linked to you. From the way you ask the question however, it makes me kinda wonder about their quality. What kind of sites are you getting links from?

What do you use to gather and build Links?
I was just wondering what do most people use for gathering and building links? Is OpenSiteExplorer enough? When I am analysing competitors, there are literally thousands of links, how do you scan them and select the ones you want to use? Any other tools?

I need help finding a link building professional
I understand that some may respond to this question advising that we should concentrate on building good quality content, and eventually the links will come. And I do agree. The problem is that while we are implementing a content strategy and we're absolutely focused on creating unique, quality content for our audience, we're also a brand new business with a current grand total of (wait for it...) - 4 back-links! So while we're devoting our efforts to create the most engaging content we can, we need to find someone that can help us build our back-link profile and help to promote our brand and content in the most legitimate way possible. Obviously typing "SEO" into Google is not necessarily the most effective way to find the right person for the job and I'm a bit apprehensive about posting ads on eLance, oDesk, etc Does anyone have any idea how we can find someone smart and highly experienced that understands the importance of doing this right? We are Australian based but they don't have to be local. Thanks in advance. Stu
