What are the new ways of Link Building which will get quality links?
-
Hi
We are doing following kinds of Link Building:
1. Article marketing
2. Directory Submission
3. Guest Blogging
4. Press Release submission
5. Infographics (Viral Marketing)
I know blog commenting and links from discussion forums are considered as greyhat / blackhat by google.
So I want suggestions on some other ethical(Whitehat SEO) ways of Link Building to get quality Links.
Also suggest me some Free article submission sites which give " dofollow-links"
Thank You

What you're doing is great if you have the content to back it up, especially if you're in a niche market. Make sure your infographics are of the highest quality possible. There are so many infographics out there that you really need to make yours stand out to have it picked up.
You should also be doing some link baiting for all of these articles and press releases you're doing. Writing a random article or press release just to get you a link can only help you so much. If the article or press release is getting tons of views and comments from different IP addresses, you'll find yourself in a good spot.

AWCthreads makes a huge point. The best SEO resource I have found the customer, or page viewer. If they are truly helped by the content you offer they will eventually do the best link building you can hope for. Generalzod also brings up a good point, if you have great content that is just sitting there because nobody can find it.. then what good is it really doing?
If you don''t have good regular traffic that may stumble upon the new fresh content then you'll have to go where your demographic is.
I will give an example: About 4 years ago I was working in the gaming industry as a software seller . A new game was coming out, I talked with my distributor, and got in on Beta testing. From there I joined the game's official forums. I soon found most people were using a fansite to talk about the game, so I joined the fansite. I played the game sporadically enough to engage in general conversation. Eventually, after being a somewhat established member (about 2 weeks of posting) I decided to let the people know I worked for a company that would be selling the software and could get anybody who wanted it a discount. That caught the attention of the owner of the fansite who in turn posted my sites banner on his page for free. That little work turned into 100's of sales and tons of links on all sorts of similar type forums and blogs.

Digg is a great medium. I would also suggest writing a great piece of content, and using that as an ice breaker for requesting guest posts.
Like:
Look what I can do! Let me do it for your site!
-
I'm with you on that! Great content and well presented content will give you links.
In fact it is as simple as that, as long as you have the best content, product, presentation or navigation. Look at your competition and make sure that your site, content, product is 10% better than theirs.

Chicken and egg. Writing great content is a good idea...but if nobody can find it, nobody will link to it?
I'd expand on the above idea and suggest writing a great article then perhaps push it out through Digg so that people will see it and likely talk about/links to it. Works for me anyway.
Good luck!

How about creating some content that is unique, informative, relevant, timely and worthy of linking to.

When pitching a whitepaper as Push Content for Link Building, is it ok to give the person I'm pitching a link to a landing page with a form on it?
When pitching a whitepaper as Push Content for Link Building (i.e. pushing out content that my client has created), is it ok to give the person I'm pitching a link to a landing page with a form on it? Or should I create a landing page with the whitepaper included on it? I’m not sure if the client will be ok with this b/c I know they use the whitepaper for sales purposes to gain leads. For example, my pitch email would include a line such as this, "the whitepaper can be found at LINK and I'd love if you could share it with your readers." I think it may be weird/a little wrong to ask a webmaster to include a link on his site to a landing page with a form to get the whitepaper. Does this make sense? What have others done with whitepapers as Push Content for link building?

Using Online Communities for link building..
Hello. All I have a question in regards to online communities. Is joining an online community( i.e. Industry related forums, commenting on industry related news sites, responding to blog post) a good way to do link building? I don't mean in the sense of spamming but actually being an active part of a online community and adding valuable to the conversation. I have tried posting blog post on a industry related online community: biggerpockets.com but this site does not show up as a link when I pull an open site explorer for my website. Any suggestions ?

Link building for a product review site
I'm doing SEO for a product review website, and I'm curious what link building opportunities are best for this category. Assume only the following: The website is basically a blog Most of the articles are reviews on cosmetic products, though there are also articles regarding news, product roundups, tips&tricks and similar content The website is in a local, non-english language Disregarding low-value opportunities such as directories, what kind of websites should I aim for outreach purposes? So far, I'm thinking the following: Product manufacturers (very low success chance, as the review site is fairly new and in a localized language) E-commerce sites selling the products (average to low success chance, since a lot of them use CMSes that might not allow integration of a review) Other cosmetic blogs, particularly for guest blogging (average to low success chance, since the website is fairly new) Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!
