Link Building Strategy
-
Hello Everyone,
We have about 15 clients who we need to do link building for but I am at a loss on how to even begin.
Does anybody have any tips or tricks to achieving quality back links in a short amount of time?
Any help is appreciated!

Thanks. I am tasked with updating and refining our current process for my boss. We do use most of the common best practices...but we certainly want to continually enhance our process.

EGOL said it perfectly, "Linking building is the most challenging part of SEO for most people." If you are new to link building, it might be best to outsource this to someone who knows what they are doing. The negative repercussions for doing a cheap fast job could really hurt your business in the long run.
However, with the warning aside, you can always start by obtain your competitors backlinks, but you have to be careful. Not every link your competitor has is a good links, and being able to sift out the crap links from the good ones takes time and experience.
Good Luck

Linkbuilding is the most challenging part of SEO for most people. Getting quality links fast is extra challenging.
If you have fantastic, best-on-the-web content you can often just submit it to sites such as Reddit and Slashdot and Stumbleupon... if it really is great content that will be like throwing gasoline on a fire.
If you don't have that type of content then you can buy backlinks... but bought links can be risky and you run the risk that they will be devalued. I don't recommend it.
You could also hire someone who knows what they are doing to build the links for you or teach you.

There is a lot of good linkbuilding information and ideas posted here at SEOMoz and elsewhere on the web. You could dedicate the next few weeks to study and learning the basics. Then you will need to spend a lot of time still, figuring out how to do it and the challenge is different for each client.
If you are not up to that you can again, consider hiring someone who knows what they are doing.

Link building with PDFs
I created a manual for a popular piece of equipment and placed it, as a PDF-file, on my website. The PDF contains a clickable link to the root domain of my website. Other websites have downloaded the PDF and put it on their own website, hosting it themselves. Since Google indexes PDFs, does the link in the PDF count as a regular 'link' from an external website, and does it have comparable value? Can't find any thoughts or studies about this anywhere.

Anyone have experience with AdTaxi for link building services?
Recently a client of ours received a proposal from a local newspaper for search related services, including link building. I believe the name of the company the paper is working with for some of these services is AdTaxi, which i had not heard of before. Anyone have experience with these guys from a link building standpoint? I know that here we are more "do it yourselfers" and for the most part, we handle all of the on-page and technical SEO for our client's sites, but link building as a dedicated service isn't something we have the resources to offer so I'm just looking to do some research. Thank you! -William

Link building by inviting bloggers
Hi everyone, I'm relatively new to SEO, and I have a question on a link building strategy for a holiday resort I am working on. The resort has a paintball arena and zorbing facilities at their premises. I want to use this in the link building strategy and the owners have agreed to have an open day for bloggers. Basically the resort will invite 20 local bloggers for a day to their resort. They get to play paintball, zorbing and get to see the resort in exchange for an honest write up about their day at the resort. I am looking at asking the bloggers to write about the event twice (Once before, and once after they visit the resort) with a minimum of 4 links to the website. I want to know how I can identify the top bloggers? What factors should I consider while making a list of 20 bloggers, and how do I measure these factors? Also, is this a good strategy for link building? And please feel free to add anything else you think I am missing out on, or will help in the link building. Cheers! Arjun
