What should be the step after building links?
-
Hello,
I regularly build links and save them in excel file. But I don't know what should I do after building them? Should I ping them? Share on social media or leave until they are not indexed?
thanks
-
It's not necessary to ping the links often, but I put a reminder and revise them from time to time.Of course, key information and global SEO changes mentioned in guest posts need to be updated.
-
As usual your response are well contented. Thank you. I will look into these.

Thank you Chris,
Links are coming from guest posts, business listings and general links like videos.

Improve the article. Keep it up-to-date.
Be on the look-out for additional information that will enable improvement. Read topic-area blogs and news about your product lines. Search periodically to stay up-to-date.
Attend professional meetings and obtain additional training in the general topic areas of your website.
Most people look for SEO information to improve their website, but the real gold is in the industries and topic areas of your products or the subjects that you write about.

Hi Kate,
I never ping the links I build, i don't see it worth. If they are shared in social media it's much better, specially if they are shared by many people.
As you do, I would just save them on an excel file taking note about the date it began to be online in the web, the anchor text, if it's follow or nofollow and the type of web where is it. This list can serve you to build links moderately and irregularly in time to seem more natural,to control if some links or webs disappear, to build links of the type of link or anchor you need more (exact anchor, phrase anchor...). Here you have a good article about the anchor text: https://ahrefs.com/blog/anchor-text/
You can also use this list to do second-tier link building, pointing with these new links (tier 2) to the first links you created. I leave you here an article from Julie Joyce about this:

Good luck!

You just sit back and let the money pile up!
Just kidding... There are plenty of applications out there that will ping your backlinks regularly if you want but there's not really that much to do once a link is established other than maybe maintaining a relationship with the webmaster/owner of the sites that linked to you. From the way you ask the question however, it makes me kinda wonder about their quality. What kind of sites are you getting links from?

Assuming you have built a new sophisticated site that involves high user engagement as in bounce rate < 30% sophisticated genuine content (pages > 2000 chars) best possible site speed what are some of the boilerplate link building activities you would execute under which considerations? Activities: I am thinking of things along the lines of building X social media links using a fiverr submission to curated link directories reach out for high quality links with thought leaders etc Considerations: I am thinking of things along the lines of keep a constant link gain velocity over the first 3 months make sure you place links across pages not just the root domain make sure you have a mix of follow and no-follow links and a natural anchor text distribution In short I am hoping we can crowdsource a linkbuilding starting guide in the SEO world of 2015. /T

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 PR versus topic
Regarding link building, what counts the most in terms of PR and relevance(topic). Is it whether, the link comes from a domain/page with high domain/page rank or that the link come from a domain with similar/relevant content? I know, we should always aim to get links from domains with both relevance and good page rank. But which is most important? For example: If we have a web site about swiss made watches. Should i focus on getting links from other domains with information about swiss made watches. Or can i achieve just as good link juice, by getting links from un-related web sites with high PR? We will of course get more qualified traffic from related domains. But from a pure search ranking, what plays the biggest factor?
