Link building

I keep sending personal emails to website asking for a link form them but every one says no
how do other website get so many links to there website
whats the best software to use

Hi,
The reality is that some of these links will have been paid for (in the form of ads, advertorials, etc).
Other ways to obtain "quick links":
- Contact webmasters (of relevant websites) where you spot broken links. Kindly mention this and ask them to include a link to your website... they might be more willing since you helped them spot some broken links.
- Do some Blog post commenting on relevant Blogs.
- Add your site to some directories.
Obviously non of the above is very clever and as mentioned before it would be more beneficial to develop a content strategy and start earning links, but in order to get things moving quickly it could help you a little already?
As to software, I do like Buzzstream I must admit because it allows you to manage your outreach campaigns more efficiently.
Cheers

If you don't know the difference between 'their' and 'there' then I doubt that you are capable of creating the sort of content that will get links from worthwhile places.
If your business can support it get a good company to help you. If your business can't support it then consider dropping it and finding out what you're good at. Don't waste another second of your life.
The internet is 99.9% rubbish and the current trend is to reward the 0.1%.

Instead of asking for something, stand out from the crowed and GIVE them something.
Link to them in one of your posts, share something of there's on your FB profile, engage on their forums and add value to the conversations.
Helping someone without asking for anything in return is a great way to build a lasting relationship. In time, they will link to you without you even having to ask, even if you ask, at least you wont be another random in their email inbox. After engaging with them, at least they would know who you are and might respond positively to your emails.
Just remember, its not about "building" links anymore. Its about earning them!

Is it time to pay for link building?
I've been using the Moz tools for a while now and love them. Our SEO efforts are certainly paying off as we're ranking well for a lot of our desired keywords. That being said, I'm finding link building to be a very frustrating process. As much as I like to be hands on and try to do everything, I'm wondering when it's time to "throw in the towel" and hire someone? Is there anyone else who might have gone through a similar evolution? I'd love to hear some other stories about how or why you decided to hire out your link building. I'd like to think that whatever we spend on link building could likely reduce our reliance on AdWords, although I'm not sure how this would really play out over time.

Link building for a product review site
I'm doing SEO for a product review website, and I'm curious what link building opportunities are best for this category. Assume only the following: The website is basically a blog Most of the articles are reviews on cosmetic products, though there are also articles regarding news, product roundups, tips&tricks and similar content The website is in a local, non-english language Disregarding low-value opportunities such as directories, what kind of websites should I aim for outreach purposes? So far, I'm thinking the following: Product manufacturers (very low success chance, as the review site is fairly new and in a localized language) E-commerce sites selling the products (average to low success chance, since a lot of them use CMSes that might not allow integration of a review) Other cosmetic blogs, particularly for guest blogging (average to low success chance, since the website is fairly new) Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

How much should a link building program cost?
Hi All, I am relatively new to the world of SEO but it is vital to our business that we improve in this area. I believe our site architecture is good although we have a new site coming in the next few weeks which is effectively a re-skinning of the existing one that makes the user experience more relevant. What I would like to know is how much a link building program shoudl cost from an SEO provider and how they quantify what they charge - is there some kind of indicative cost per link or is it just "give us some money and we will do our best?" We have started writing daily articles on our news site and our natural listings are already pretty good. What I am looking to achieve is top three status for the London area (where we work) accross a broad range of keywords. I know this is what everyone wants but we are already front page and top 3 for many keywords and the back link building would appear to be where we are weaker compared to some of our competitors. Thanks James www.morganpryce.co.uk

How can I convince my clients with smaller budgets to invest in Link Building?
Hi All, Basically over the last few months I have been working for a company that is mainly a dev house but are looking to expand their SEO clients further. At the moment because of the only recent focus on SEO we have a lot of clients who only pay for monthly reports, on page optimisation and some PPC. My question is, how can I show the clients that investing in Link Building is probably the next step and something they need to do if they wish to further progress their SEO campaign. I have written up a link building proposal to show them the advantages of Link Building, but any other ideas would be very much appreciated. Thanks,

Link building strategy - black hat or white hat?
I have a competitor who always ranks very on alot keywords relevant to our business and using Open Site Explorer I note they have a tremendous amount of links. I also noticed that it appears their web company has gone out and set up numerous websites with relevant content, and then have linked back to the competitors main site. Is this kosher? I ask because before I settled on my current domain name, I purchased several keyword rich domain names; should I be thinking of setting up websites with relevant (and original) content and link back to my main site?
