Article submission, and how to build backlinks for Ecommerce? [HELP]
-
Hi guys,
I have a question, for high quality backlinks apparently you go to these article websites where you submit your site such as Ezine etc etc, however is it just one article you submit to these as it'll look like duplicate content? Also can I have it on my site first?
How does it work?
Also I run an ecommerce website, how can I build backlinks to each product, theres over 200+ products and 1.6k subcategories.
I would like to rank for as many as possible but getting an SEO company to do this would cost to much. Any ideas on how I should go about it?

ezine et al are much less effective nowadays. its all about going for articles on quality sites that aren't easy to get on. ANYONE can get an article on ezine and similar sites.

Do Press Releases
-
Build Infographics and share them on Twitter, facebook, google plus and pintrest
-
Submit Guest Post
-
Create video content of your products and share it to sites likes youtube, vimeo and etc, and if you can give a voice over product description in the video it would be great.
-
Use Tools like OSE and check where your competitors are getting linked from and try to get linked from those sites. If the sites are spammy, don't get linked with them
Best of Luck..

I think that you answered your own question,
If there is a doubt there is no doubt..Here are some practical tips for contnet link bulding:
1. create usefull articles - not the boring same old things that everyone are doing. dig in and reaserch to find out what users really want and then give it to them.
2. publish your content in one (!) resource - make sure that it is original and not copyed (especially not from your own website) - you can use copyscape.com for that.
3. after your article is live on the web you should link to it from tweeter, facebook, bookmarks, forums and other articles you publish later on. If your article is really good you can also contact blogers to write or mention it.
4. link to inner pages (products?) - not just your home page.
The bottom line is that you can not get high quality links with low quality work - you really need to put the effort in to it.
Good luck!

With posting to multiple article sites, just make sure you post under the same author name. That way you wont be viewed as duplicating content.
The effectiveness of this kind of linking isn't that great though, your better off putting great content on your own site and making sure its shareable on sites like Google plus and Facebook.
Is their any way on your site of adding articles to a page that then pulls in the items you have for sale based on the article? That way at least you would have a relevant landing pages for linking to.

to be honest Ezines are going to yield smaller results, you really only want to target the big ezine websites which are high quality and indexed by Google news.
In regards to what other strategies you should use to build backlinks for your ecommerce site some good posts can be found here:

I would look at using more of the above methods over lower quality article submissions

Do the links from top websites' forums boost in-terms of backlinks?
If we get any backlinks from discussions/forums of top websites like wordpress and joomla forums; do they count as valid and authority improving backlinks? I mean about the dofollow links.

I'm seeing thousands of no-follow links on spam sites. Can you help figure it out?
I noticed that we are receiving thousands of links from many different sites that are obviously disguised as something else. The strange part is that some of them are legitimate sites when you go to the root. I would say 99% of the page titles read something like : 1 Hour Loan Approval No Credit Check Vermont, go cash advance - africanamericanadaa.com. Can someone please help me? Here are some of the URL's we are looking at: http://africanamericanadaa.com/genialt/100-dollar-loans-for-people-with-no-credit-colorado.html http://muratmakara.com/sickn/index.php?recipe-for-cone-06-crackle-glaze http://semtechblog.com/tacoa/index.php?chilis-blue-raspberry-margarita http://wesleygcook.com/rearc/guaranteed-personal-loans-oregon.html

Website rankings plummeted after a negative SEO attack - help!
Hello Mozzers A website of a new client (http://bit.ly/PuVNTp) use to rank very well. It was on the top page for any relevant search terms in its industry in Southern Ontario (Canada). Late last year, the client was the victim of a negative SEO attack. Thousands upon thousands of spammy backlinks were built (suspected to be bought using something like Fiverr). The links came from very questionable sites or just low quality sites. The backlink growth window was very small (2,000 every 24 hours or so). Since that happened that site has all but disappeared from search results. It is still indexed and the owner has disavowed most of the bad backlinks but the site can't seem to bounce back. The same happened for another site that they own (http://bit.ly/1tErxpu) except the number backlinks produced was even higher. The sites both suffer from duplicate content issues and at one point (in 2012) were de-indexed due to the very spammy work of a former SEO. They came back in early 2013 and were fine for some time. Thoughts?

Removing a sitewide backlink without damaging the domain
Hello, I have a client that partnered up with a person in his field 4 years ago and got him to place a sitewide link to his site, high domain authority. Now with recent developments this site owner wants to take off these links so that they won't leak pagerank. The person insists in taking all the links off with his next website redesign. I have found several years ago in my own SEO efforts that removal of a sitewide link actually damages the domain. Is this still true? Should he ask for a nofollow or will that change damage our domain as well? Is there any way he can not take a huge hit on this? He doesn't mind the loss of links, he just don't want to be damaged. Please only post if you have recent experience with sitewide link removal, or if you have something related or a solution.
