Backlink Building Places

Where can I go to get follow backlinks to my site to improve my DA and PA, etc?
-
I am in the real estate business, and I am trying to get three key phrases to rank well for azbestlistings.com homes for sale in casa grande az, homes for sale in mesa az, and homes for sale in yuma az.
These three key phrases are cities that I and two other realtors work separately. We all have our own city on the team. Hence, I want to get myself into the first 5. However, I am coming nowhere near page 1 for these key phrases, so I figured from what everybody tells me I need back links.
I work all day long as a realtor, so my brain is not super focused by the time I sit down to do my seo work. Basically working two long jobs, so if somebody says go back linking I say ok, but just where do I do it in the quickest and smartest way since I do not have a ton of time to do it.
Each agent is responsible for working their city or city pages.

Why are you trying to increase your DA & PA? DA & PA are just metrics created by SEOMoz to help you get a rough idea of what a page/site's authority is. Raising these numbers should never be an end goal in and of themselves.
Getting good follow links all depends on your niche. Are there any blogs in your niche or related niches which you can guest post for? Any niche specific portals or directories? Do you have any friends or business partners that might link to you?
If you're looking for link building strategies in general, check this article out, it's VERY comprehensive:
-
My first major comment will be to choose wisely, shop around and make sure any SEO company you take on explains how they go about the link building strategy. Source someone local, or at least in your own country who understands you, your needs and your business environment.
Secondly, you should consider what you are already doing - or think about what you should do. i.e.
- Are you becoming part of communities online?
- Are you contributing to blogs or writing some great content that relates to your website
- What are you doing to engage people on social media
- Do you know what your competitors are doing - so you can learn the good stuff and avoid the junk?
Your question sounds simple, but you need to balance knowing what you can (and maybe should) be doing yourself, while taking on a business you can work closely with who will help you on this front.

Link Building where link building is dead. Latest tactics in a land of content.
Hello, What is your latest link building techniques considering manual link building is basically dead, and you should really build good content to drive results. Link building has really become less important. It seems to be much more 10X content now. What would you recommend for basic link building considering this besides the 50 first Links video by Rand, which is excellent. Thanks, Bob

Rankings Dropped After New Backlinks.
I have a low-traffic website (under 100 unique visitors per day) and I've encountered a strange issue started yesterday morning. I acquired three back-links, one of these back-links is contextual and the other two are site-wide. The site-wide back-links are from PA 40+ blogs. It looks like the back-links are already indexed by Google. Despite these new back-links, my rankings across multiple keywords have dropped several positions. I'm new to SEO, but I would assume new back-links would improve my rankings. None of these back-links are low quality links, they are from real established blogs with high domain and page authority values. Could anyone give me insights into why my rankings may have dropped with new back-links?

How to remove backlinks?
Hey guys, With all this anti over optimization movement going around with Google, I decided to do a link building profile audit. I see some pages with PR 0 and some pages that expired. My websites are not penalized at this moment, however I do want to avoid this at all costs. What can I do? Could a backlink from an expired domain penalize my site?

Outsourcing Link Building
I have searched through various freelance sites for link building services, and it looks like there are plenty of people who can get links on PR4+ sites at a pretty cheap rate. You know how they always say when it looks too good to be true, it probably is too good to be true? People are charging around $250 for 50 links on sites with good page rank, do follow, etc... Do you think it could help or hurt my SEO campaign, considering I have a good site with solid content and other good content posted on the web?
