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.

What do you use to gather and build Links?
I was just wondering what do most people use for gathering and building links? Is OpenSiteExplorer enough? When I am analysing competitors, there are literally thousands of links, how do you scan them and select the ones you want to use? Any other tools?

Link building for eCommerce
I have an engraving site where I am looking to increase traffic/ sales. We do local engraving services and sell engraved products via eCommerce. Perfectindesign.com It seems to me that locally I can't compete since most search terms are washed over with every local directory in and around the city that are selling there memberships. So I thought I could compete nationally via the 200 products we carry. I have used site explorer to go through my competitors links. My findings show that other then their twitter accounts and dmoz listing most everything else are paid links and lots of them. Keeping in mind I have 45 root domains with 411 links to my site. Three competitors links data. I probably shouldn't name them right? competitor #1 1k root with 13.9k links competitor # 2 147 root with 16k links competitor # 3 427 root with 28k Should I just start buying these links that range from $10-50 per link or is this a waste of time? Are these truly my competitors or am I comparing my tiny site to the major leagues?

I know that in an ideal world you would be able to create an amazing site with great content that every one would link to. But what if you're not able to so this, what if you the market you're in is very competitive and you're struggling to find good link partners.
