Have you looked at our blog section on Link Building? We have a lot of posts there that talk about many different ways to earn valuable links.

I would get rid of the Google Adsense links right under your main menu bar. Why do you want to send your visitors to another site as soon as they visit your site? It will decrease your pageviews, pageviews/user, and will increase your bounce-rate.
And you'd better convert your content url's to clean url format.
For instance your forum links is now: index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&view=index&category_id=0&Itemid=78
a forum URL like /automobile-forum would work better for you.

Hello Keri,
Thanks for a detailed inspection and time spent to analyse it.
-
Here, in India - a site with a .com is what is considered generic and is typed naturally instead of country specific .in or .co.in extension. Does having a .com impacts the rankings as searched in India. (Under webmaster - the geogparhical location is set as India only)
-
For warnings etc - we do regularly check google webmaster and yes takes very seriously for same. However - if we remove ads (which we learned from some major adsense enabled sites - these are the best practices - for monetizing and ad positioning ) pl suggest if we are doing anything wrong here. There is just one banner ad above the text fold and one link unit
-
By building links, 100% with you - but how to build do follow links from external sites - which is the best way to make backlinks - through Articles or other means
Thanks once again for time to analyse and suggest. Hope to get response for above. Thanks

What do you want your long-term results to be? I'd stop building links for the moment. Most are crap links right now -- if you sat down with a rep from a search engine, I don't think links like http://www.txtlinks.com/19/Business_and_Finance_Weblogs/72/ and http://www.selfgrowth.com/articles/tips-to-eliminate-fear-of-public-speaking would they pass the quality guidelines?
The site comes across as quite confusing when I try to examine it. The title tag and some text says it's for India, but it's on a dot com and it looks like the site is trying to hide the fact that it's for India and instead hoping you'll click on one of the many ads. It's hard to find information from the actual site, given the number of ads on the page.
If this were my site, I'd verify it in Google Webmaster Tools and see if there were any warnings about either my links or the quality of my pages. Google has started cracking down more recently on sites with a ton of ads on them above the fold. If it were my site, and I was wanting to attract visitors from India, I would also set that as my geographic target in Google Webmaster Tools.
I'd go through and make sure that my content was unique and valuable to the visitor. I'd ask if it was something that someone would want to link to, then go out and tell people about the content. I'd also tell them about my point of difference / unique selling proposition. Let people know what they can get from your site that they can't get from other, similar sites. As you build links, build them for your users, not for Google. Ask yourself if you would want to explain these links in a reinclusion request, or if you would want to remove them later. It's easier to never make the link then try to remove it later.
I know this wasn't the answer you were looking for, but you need to make sure the site is something that can earn natural links.

Whats the best way to get credit links from sites i've built?
Hello! I've build 100's of sites. They mostly have site wide footer links pointing back to me. I know this is now frowned on. But does anyone have a good solution to get maximum value back from these? A few have a footer link to a credit page that then links back. I get quite a lot of work back from them. So I don't really fancy removing them. Many thanks in advance.

Local Link Building help!
Hi All, Looking for some help with where to begin link building for local small businesses. If the website is leading to a lawyer, doctor, or any type of professional service, I'm at a loss on where to start. I've tried looking into local directories, and I also know that if one of the clients has a reason for being linked in an online news article, those links should be pursued. Additionally, I've gone and helped to claim all local listings, and submitted to DMOZ and a few other directories. So if the website is just leading to a business that isn't running any events or specials worth writing about, what is the best way to acquire links? Thank you! Tyler

Link building - am I too cautious?
The only backlink building I am doing is guest blogging as it seems most other methods have potential to harm rankings in the post panda/penguin era. As mentioned in another post I'm trying to get a strategy for social media that works as I believe social likes/shares are important. What other link building methods can I use that are totally safe? Is it okay to 'buy' a link on botw r examleas theyre editorally reviewed? I'm asking myself 2 questions when acquiring limks. 1. Would I want this link if google didn't exist and 2. Will it bring me relevant traffic. I'm almost scared of link building in case google punishes me. Are there any legitimate methods I'm missing?

Where do I find the best link building company?
Hi there, I'm trying to find an ethical, honest, link building company. We don't want links on shady forums, or comment spam, or any of that black hat nastyness!. I want links, on proper sites, and I'm prepared to pay for them accordingly. We're also more than happy to write/have written/ quality content that can be linked to. (We already pump out about 15 x 400+ word, optimised blogs weeks) We spend hours on the various social media sites also. So I think the only thing we're really missing now, is decent backlinks and possibly some more long tail keywords... Over to you guys. Paul.
