Link Building Methods
-
Hi,
If i hire a SEO company, what kind of links they will build for me. If anyone own a seo company can you let me know.My question is if i create a new website, what kind of link building techniques should i use other than, articles, press releases, social bookmarking, directories. As i am competiting with very tough competition. I have analyzed my competitors and they bought sitewides which are paid ones. Without paid ones i think it is is very hard for me to get into the competition. Can someone discuss more link building methods also.
Awaiting for your responce.
Regards.

As stated by Tom, creating useful helpful and interesting content and adding it to your website Is the best long term strategy for link building. Over a long period of time useful articles are highly likely to receive some links. What's often not mention is the value you gain from blog traffic. Even if no one links to your blog you will gain more traffic to your website. I've had many resulting sales due to our blog traffic. Not to mention you will be able to post your blog on blog directories (so you will at least get these links)
You could also create valuable content by building tools/widgets for your industry. Infographics are great to add to your blog and are often popular to share.
Other techniques you could employ is bog commenting (although comments must be relevant and add value to the conversion).
Hold a contest, you will be able to submit to contest website which will link to your contest.
Donate to charity. (often tax refundable, so if you have the budget It can be a win win for the charity and you)
Here's some links to some ideas for link building.

There are heap of other techniques but you should spend most of your time building or buying valuable content. Think of high quality content as assets. While other techniques are often just expenses.

Hello;
Well, it really depends on the type of business your in. Say if your in the "New Bicycle Business", I would start a campaign/blog on purchasing new bikes, and how to, ect.. If your competitors are not doing this it would be a great way to start. Also starting a Group in linked in has helped me generate a ton of traffic. Just simply asking people in my community for some link juice, or Likes, to create that SEO aggregation.
Hope it help, considering the question is a bit vague..
Cheers!

Do I ditch the link building and risk the drop?
I am currently on top of SERPS but am worried about some of the links being built by my seo company. We add loads of content to the site which I think is fine. We have somebody working on the on page and tech side of things which I think is fine. However I am still paying an seo company which basically builds links for me. Because I am in top spot for many terms I am nervous to turn it off. However I am also nervous that one day I will wake up and we will have been penalized! They do not build many links and they are convinced that google still want to see a varied link profile. If I stop paying then some of the ‘better’ or higher PR sites will no longer have a link to my site and will therefore drop off. We do have a great site with great content so I think we do many things well but I am nervous that these paid for links will be the death of me if I am not careful. The question is do I get rid of the link building and risk the drop? Or is a small amount of links just to keep the link profile looking Ok and not overdoing it the right move? Thanks a lot. Dave

Site not responding well to Link Building
I worked on around 15 EMDs and all of them have similar template but different content. They are all two KW EMDs. Now I did KW research and changed Title tags and Did around 10- 15 links for them in and they all reacted very well to link building except one site. I did the link building for this site in 3 batches- 7 links in first 10 days, then another 7 in next 10 days and another 7 links after 7 days. Site's ranking decreased with each link building. Then I removed the low quality links recently. Now What do you guys suggest should I again do link building?? (though everytime I did link building site lost rankings as mentioned earlier) or WHAT IS THE NEXT STRATEGY AFTER REMOVING BAD LINKS? START LINKING AGAIN, WAIT FOR SOMETIME ?

Strategy When Building Links
When you build links do you keep track of every single link that you put out there? Or do you start and what to see what shows up in OSE? Some of these links take time so you would have to go back and check to see if it stuck. Im just trying to put together a procedure to follow. Also spread they out correctly, org, .net ,. com blogs, blog posts. etc Just curious how everyone else does it, so its easier to manage & track. Thanks !!

Also nofollow backlinks have any effect on the SERP? Thanks.
