Hi there,
I have found that very high quality content submitted to StumbleUpon can attract a huge amount of traffic in a short period of time. The traffic will never truly dry up either: you'll continue getting traffic for months or even years after the initial push (although the number of visits won't be as high as at the beginning).
Reddit.com is another place to source traffic: find the "subreddit" (section of the site) most relevant to your content and submit there. Bear in mind, however, that most Reddit users are very much against marketing, so your submission should look as natural as possible. It is advisable to take part in the communities on Reddit that deal with your topic, not to just submit articles and wait for traffic: you should become a regular contributor, commenter and submitter, and not just a submitter of your own content.
Your other ideas are also good, although I doubt you will get much traffic from directories: these are going to be for link building purposes, far more than for visibility.
Cheers,
Jane

Is there a way to consolidate link prospects in Moz or should we look for an external tool e.g. Raven Tools, Buzz Stream etc.? Thanks. 🙂

How do I find and can I trust link building companies
I'm finding it hard to build quality links. I don't want to employ a link building company as I can't find anyone I can trust. I also don't know what is a realistic rate of pay for link building work.

How much should a link building program cost?
Hi All, I am relatively new to the world of SEO but it is vital to our business that we improve in this area. I believe our site architecture is good although we have a new site coming in the next few weeks which is effectively a re-skinning of the existing one that makes the user experience more relevant. What I would like to know is how much a link building program shoudl cost from an SEO provider and how they quantify what they charge - is there some kind of indicative cost per link or is it just "give us some money and we will do our best?" We have started writing daily articles on our news site and our natural listings are already pretty good. What I am looking to achieve is top three status for the London area (where we work) accross a broad range of keywords. I know this is what everyone wants but we are already front page and top 3 for many keywords and the back link building would appear to be where we are weaker compared to some of our competitors. Thanks James www.morganpryce.co.uk

Build Links with Bloggers
Hi! A few days ago, someone asked about how to ask links from bloggers and we got good answers, specially from Egol. But, I do want to add to that question: after conducting research on each blogger and make sure they have good quality content, how would you factor in their page rank, visitors, page view and social media info? if they don't have much traffic, with PR3 (we are PR4), which means we can't count on too much traffic from them, but, will backlink from such places deemed as quality link by Google? I do understand the higher number in PR and traffic is better, but, in our case, they don't come by often. Is it still worthwhile to do the lower sites?

How do I get my unindexed links indexed?
I've been building links consistently to our site for the past three months. At first, some of my tactics were rather shady. As I learned more, I started to get more quality links. I have noticed that a very small percentage of my active links are currently indexed. Should I do something to get these older links indexed or just keep building new links? Will building shady links to unindexed links get them indexed? Will this get my site penalized? Does pinging help? What resource should I use to ping these unindexed links? Forgive me if this is a really basic question. I'm still learning the ropes.

Trying to use the SEOmoz link building tools but...
all of the directories that are listed seem to be based in the US for US companies - am I missing something? By the way my target audience is solely based in the UK, Thanks, Jason

What are some good easy links to get for new sites?
We are in the process of launching a couple of new sites and while we know it will be a long process to get them to rank, achieving some long-tail keywords would be beneficial. What sites would you recommend for getting some easy links to start with that can help the indexation and ranking process along in the preliminary stages? Or another way to put the question - when you launch a new site, what steps do you go through?

Who here outsources your link building?
Anyone here run an agency? Do you outsource your link building to another company overseas so it's cheap, or what is everyone else doing nowadays?
