Thanks Keri and sorry for not getting back sooner Akhilesh. Keri is right that I am in the UK.
As Keri has said, you really need to read the section on link building and content - If you get this wrong, you can cause yourself some big problems.
Have a read of this so that you are sure what you need to be doing... http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo/growing-popularity-and-links

I suggest reading the Beginner's Guide to SEO, especially the sections on content and links, and also our blog's link building section.
-
Thanks Keri,
Means now a days link building is only posting blog content in website then share with social profiles with putting links OR any other way for link building.
Can you clear me if something i am missing.
Really will be very Gratefully to me.
-
Content sharing does not mean reposting another site's blog on your blog. See my earlier response for examples of sharing content.
-
My mean can we share other Blog content in our blog ? This is called content sharing?
If we will share then Google can penalised if we put source?
If website is not under DMCA then we can do?
Thanks,
Akhilesh
-
What do you mean by share other blog content?
If you mean repost the content on your site, you need to look at the original site for their policies on copying the content, and to see if it is copyright. Many blogs do have their content copyright, and may file a DMCA notice if you republish their posts without permission.

Thanks KeriMorgret,
I am agree with you. we can share any other blog content to our blog section to mention source url where we found and put no follow tag?
Thanks,
Akhilesh

Sharing an article is not the same as republishing an article. You can go on Facebook or Twitter and say "Wow, this is a great post about xyz" and put a link to the post. Or you can say how you really disagree about the post, write your own post, link back to the original post.
For shareable content, we're also talking about things like my mother writing about her cross-country travels on her blog, and including links to sites that talk in-depth about a place that she visited. She's sharing the links and the content (by sharing the link) with her readers because that site goes into much more detail than she could about a particular place.

Hi KeriMorgret,
Thanks for update.I agree with you.
If moz staff can provide us my question answer will be good.
My question is:
Suppose i read one article than how can share because Google don't allow to publish content for other website. I think this will be duplicate to us.
How can share other content in our website and same for other how can share our content on his website?

Hello Akhilesh,
I just wanted to leave a quick note that Andy is another Moz user like you, and not an employee or contractor with Moz. He's volunteering his time to give you answers, and appears to be on a different continent (and time zone) from you.
In a couple of other questions, people have suggested that you read the Beginner's Guide to SEO. Have you had a chance to do this yet? There's a section on link building at http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo/growing-popularity-and-links that you may find helpful.
-
Andy please give your input on above. I am still waiting.
Thanks,
Akhilesh
-
Thank you very much Andy.
My last question is suppose i read one article than how can share to create link earning because Google don't allow to publish content for other website.
So question is how can share other content in our website and same for other how can share our content on his website?
Thanks,
Akhilesh

You can and should link to your own internal content using strong anchor text as this helps Google to crawl their way around. However, don't make it spammy - be descriptive and imagine you were a user reading the anchor text, would it describe the page that it leads to?
-Andy

Thanks again Andy,
If we did create one internal WordPress Blog in any website and posting regularly in internal blog then can we put link on any keywords for our internal blog content?
Thanks,
Akhilesh

- The rule for anchor text is to make it descriptive if it is an internal page on your own site, but when trying for a link from an external site, keep the link as natural as possible. This means your link should either be your brand, like iNet SEO, your URL like www.inetseo.co.uk or something neutral like Click Here. If you try for descriptive money-heavy keywords, you are likely to be cause yourself problems down the line.
- Google are always tweaking their algorithms, and eventually many sites will get hit for not taking care of their link profile. Stay current with what Google want now and ensure more longevity.
- As with all external sites, it is all about sharing good information and using plenty of caution. For social media sharing, that's what it is there for - get busy sharing and trying to get others to share your information too. Local business websites are OK, as long as they are one of the reputable. The likes of Yelp, Yell, etc., tend to be OK, but don't go for anything that looks like it could cause you harm.

Hi Andy,
Thanks for your valuable answer.
All points are good but i want to ask below questions.
1.Can we put keywords anchor link in Blog content?
2.Competitor doing most of the Old link building but he is on top. I don't why?
3.Can we should do local business website like yelp, Hotfrog and social website like Digg, Delicious etc. -
Hi Akhilesh,
What you want to be doing is looking at Linkable Assets - these can be images, graphics, tools, research studies, articles, and indeed anything else that would be considered link-worthy. They are a reason someone will want to link through to your website. This sometimes means getting creative with your thinking.
- What does your site offer and is it different / better than other competitors?
- Where are your competitors getting their links from?
- Do you write blog posts?
- Are you active on Social Media?
- What makes you stand out - if nothing, then create something that does.
It can take a bit of work to get there, but once you have some ideas under your belt and you get into the flow, you will want to get sharing this and perhaps even look at doing some outreach to other sites who would be interested in mentioning you.

Hi Mate,
Its very hard to any website user will share our content or link.
User enter in to website and after gathering information or fill request form return in to SERP.
Can you give me any website example?
Thanks,
Akhilesh

Hi Akhilesh,
In theory it sounds simple - you create great content on your site so your visitors will naturally share and link to it. However, that's easier said than done.
Cheers.

What is the best way to start building links without paying for them?
I am starting new websites for my clients and want to know where to start. I understand that rich, engaging content gets links naturally, but how do we get links to rich content that noone has ever seen?

Can I include "commissioned" posts in my link building strategy?
Ok "Commissioned Posts" meaning industry influencers/bloggers etc writing about your brand, products or services and possibly "linking" to your website (in exchange for money, or not) a) I'm contacted by a blogger who wants to write a piece about our product and naturally links back. b) A blogger says, yes, we can write a fantastic article about your brand and link to you for $$$..$ - is this ok if not at scale? What is deemed as ethical? I want to make sure our link building campaign is done within Google's guidelines. Here is currently what we are doing, or intending to do; 1. We're producing unique content on our site and sharing this with key influencers organically on Twitter, Facebook and G+ communities. This so far is working well for a new start up. 2. Writing guest posts on authoritative sites (with only our author bio at the bottom, branded link to our site, social links) sharing knowledge or interesting content which readers will want to read. Sites like HuffPost, The Guardian would be great although we're starting on authoritative well maintained blogger sites within the industry to begin. 3. Reaching out to industry influencers who may like to review our products. Many of them have got back to me stating that they "can" run commissioned posts (normally requires a large fee) which carries a followed link, branded or unbranded. Although we may have initially contacted them, and money could be exchanged, in the eyes of Google wouldn't this appear as a natural post? Please let me know your thoughts on this? It would be great to gain more of an understanding exactly what I can or cannot do when it comes to developing high quality links for our business! Your feedback (sharing any examples if possible) would be truly appreciated. Thanks Gary

Are there any other webmasters in the MOZ community that are interested in creating multiple high quality link exchanges? Our company has a decent size client list we are interested in building links for.

Google still allows massive link building in my country.
This is really messed up! I've been investigating this issue for almost a year now. I had discussion about this in SEOMoz before and people told me that my site was not optimized for SEO. However, I've finally come to conclusion that massive back link building is still the best way to rank in Google Turkey. Many high PR content websites do not seem to get their unique content ranked here because some shitty website can be ranked on the top by using back links with targeted anchors for the keyword they want. I've spent a lot of money for content but no it does not get listed unless I provide back links for each article. This does not happen in the US anymore. Google catches you for massive back link building and penalize you. SEOMoz authors suggest using social media more but it seems to have no effect whatsoever in Google Turkey. I really want to open a ticket for this in Google but don't know how to do it. Think about searching "urology" keyword in the US, would you see an informative website about urology or a site that contains a small article and wants to sell a bullshit product to you? If anyone knows how I can contact Google regarding to this, please let me know. Thanks.

My goal is to build links that comply with Google's Quality Guidelines. I am wondering what is the best way to approach webmasters or bloggers about submitting guest posts or writing content. I have done a competitive analysis, and have a list of potential link sources, but I am not sure what approach to take next. Any advice or strategy would be appreciated.

Create content or more link building?
For those of you who have been doing white hat SEO for many years, I'm curious what % of your time (and/or how many hours/week) you spend on 2 activities: -- creating new, original content for your site -- work on getting links to your existing content I find that working at getting links via article marketing, guest blogging, forum posting, etc, is an open ended time suck that never ends. But maybe a necessary investment for sites that have fewer external links than their competitors (?). Adding unique original content to my site is also time consuming, and I'm not sure about the short-term vs long-term benefit of it. I'm curious if you guys who rank in top 3 positions of the SERPs split your time evenly between link building and content building, or if you spend more time on one than the other? And does the answer change for a site that's been around for a while and already has several hundred external links and several hundred pages of original content? Where should I spend my time on a site that is 8 months old, has about 90 pages of original content (all with good on-page SEO), and several hundred external links (with mostly relevant anchor texts)? My goal is to rank higher for the key terms people search on to find a service like mine. Currently I'm on page 1 in SERPs but not in top 3.
