You might have browsed through numerous pages in order to find a solution to boost your search engine rankings and would be all confused as to what to do next. It is not an unlikely situation to be in, because that is how internet marketing and online businesses work.

You might not be a stranger to the term, “Backlinks” by this time and you might also be aware that the easiest method to increase search engine ranking is to get as many quality backlinks as possible from authoritative sites.

Then let me first start by asking you to name the one most preferred way of getting good quality backlinks – Article Marketing?? Is that what you said? If you are one of whom said that, then full marks to you. If not, then you have learned something new here.

Yes, that is right! Article Writing and submission is one of the best ways to get high quality backlinks. You have to write numerous good and relevant articles and submit them to the top 15-20 article directories and ezine publishers and wait for these to get indexed. But, the million dollar question is – How will you write so many different articles to ensure that you don’t get banned for duplicate content?

All of these woes is addressed by one unique service that Brad Callen (the Keyword Elite Guy) has launched. This is called as SEO Link Vine.

What is SEO Link Vine?

SEO Link Vine is the same concept of getting backlinks that we were discussing a couple of paragraphs above but with a new age approach and polish applied to it.

Everything works the same way. You write an article and submit it – not to the article directories, instead to SEO Link Vine, which has an article spinner service which will help you churn out numerous unique articles from the same article. It will then submit these articles to hundreds and thousands of high quality blogs and websites which have high pageranks. This in turn will mean high quality links for your chosen keywords from authoritative websites and higher search engine rankings.

If you are wondering, this service is a legitimate one or, not, then don’t worry. It is an absolute white hat method and Brad Callen is itself the brand that stands behind this service.

Why am I so confident about this service? Because I was amongst the first ones to sign up for it and this has boosted one of my websites’ search engine rankings to the first page of Google thus increasing the traffic and in turn – the DOLLARS from the sale of the product advertised on the website.

I recommend that you check out SEOLinkVine today itself and sign up for it before they close the doors for any new signups.

Note:-

In case you are looking for an article rewriting software, then the Rapid Rewriter Article Spinning Software is amongst the best choices. Based on your requirement Magic Article Rewriter could also serve the purpose extremely well.

Commenting has been one of the most preferred forms of interaction with any blog. Not just an interaction, rather commenting these days have been serving as a medium of gaining backlinks and traffic to websites as well.

There has been quite a bit of debate on the amount of traffic that one could get from commenting on other blogs, but the fact remains that there is good enough traffic that still comes from commenting on other successful blogs in a similar niche, even though most of the comments are “no-follow” these days.

Blogging is all about interaction and interacting with readers gives ideas for better research and products which in turn help bloggers churn out better articles. Similar has been an endeavor at DK Speaks as well. I have always welcomed comments from my readers and have ensured that I implement feedbacks that I have received in each of these comments.

All links in comments in my blogs are do-follow and in doing this my objective was to give away a backlink to anybody who commented on my blog. That was an incentive for the time you took out of your schedule to read my blogs post and comment on it.

It was while I was researching better ways of rewarding my readers who comment, that I stumble upon an amazing plugin that could fulfill my needs and could help me do something extra for all my commentators.

Now on, for comments that you leave you will get a surprise gift as an incentive. Comments will be picked at random and prizes shall be given away. There are exciting ebooks, softwares, scripts and more to be given away and all of these are up for grabs. The more the number of comments, the better the prizes will be.So you can start commenting right away and tell me your opinion about this idea of mine.

Now, you might be wondering as to what this plugin is?

This plugin is called as WP-incentive and is amazingly useful to build relationships in the blogging world. It is extremely simple and easy to install and if properly planned and used could yield extremely good results.

What is even more interesting is its prize!!

The Strategy:

Deal with your search engine submissions and URL directory submissions separately.

Most individuals wrongly think that search engines and site directories are pretty much the same. You should remember, a search engine employs a system that goes through web pages for specific keywords and yields a list of websites. Furthermore a search engine consists of 2 parts, a crawler and an indexer. The crawler is the system that uncovers the web pages, and the indexer, accumulates, dissects and hives away information to perform fast and accurate information recovery.

A site directory trusts on individuals for there website listings. The largest difference between a search engine and a site directory is that a site directory will not make use of a crawler or spider. In other words, a site directory won’t list your site if you do not register with the site directory. Site directories are usually split up into specific categories and you must submit your web page under the most appropriate category.

Since the search engines and URL directories are so different, you must develop your submission strategies on an individual basis.

Some Search Engine Submission Tips For Your URL.

• To receive optimal results in search engines and website directory inquiries, keywords and key concepts should be placed strategically within your web pages.
• Other components that affect search engine results are the layout of your site, how often your keywords are placed in your site, keyword prominence, and keyword placement.
• Be sure to submit single website pages to search engines. You are only allowed to submit your main URL to all the site directories.
• In general, we prefer to present 3-7 pages at a time to the engines to avert a spam punishment. Keeping this in mind, we do not advise that you present the same pages to the search engines within a short time.
• We suggest that you should get your main page accepted in a URL directory before you try to have more of your other website pages listed. This way you will stand a greater chance of having a greater extent of pages listed in a URL directory if your main page has been indexed initially. The time that passes between website submission and addition to the search engines or website directories results is known as the lead time. Keep it at a reasonable limit.

Monitoring your Submissions:

We are avid believers in employing high quality site statistics programs. In fact, we can’t believe that anyone can have a winning web based business without it.

You can see the results of your search engine optimization and link building exertions in your website stats. You will be able to examine the keywords used, the URL’s giving you the most visitors, the website browsers used to view your homepage, the time your URL is seen, etc. Watching this information will allow you a well defined profile of your site’s traffic.

Afterwards, using this data, you can tweak the HTML and content to the fullest to better accommodate your visitors.

A home based online business that practices search engine optimization as a web based marketing system, will use this submission, watching, and tweaking system. URL submission is a constant, ongoing process due to the fact that search engines invariably modify their listing algorithms.

We advise that you resubmit a web page to the main search engines once a month or, if there has been a significant modification to a website or if a page has been dropped from the results.

If your web page has been indexed into a site directory, you may then submit other web pages inside your main URL to other categories in the directories. Following the fact that your URL has been admitted to a site directory, you should not be required to resubmit it to the same directory again unless your business has radically changed and your site now belongs in a different URL category.

This is a guest post by Jason Capshaw. In case you too, wish to write for us, you can check the guidelines here.

There are real positives to building a large quantity of links, even low-value links. With large amounts of links, you have the opportunity to vary your anchor text across multiple pages.

It is clear that your domain authority is partly determined by the total number of inbound links from other domains. You may have 2,000 links spread across only 200 domains. If this is the case, building the sheer number of inbound domains linking in will increase your domain authority.

Can I get a bad link?

There has been much debate about “bad neighborhoods” and questionable links. Often times, people argue that links from these bad neighborhoods can result in Google assuming you’re spamming. However, if that were the case, I could simply buy links on Chinese gambling and porn sites for my competitors and watch them drop in the rankings.

For years, porn sites linked to Disney from the front page for those who did not choose the enter button. All of these questionable links did not result in Disney losing their ranking. The fact is Disney did not control the inbound links to their site–truly, none of us do.

There is really no such thing as a bad link.  There is simply bad-link acquisition. If you automate your link building and get 100,000 links in a short period of time, Google will sniff it out as spam. You can actually do this on a much smaller scale by using the same anchor text over and over again linking to a specific page.

The real issue is that Google simply starts discounting links when they appear questionable. If they find something on a website that indicates spamming, they may take that into consideration and drop your rankings.

Link bait

Link bait is the most effective way to build the number of inbound links. It looks completely natural because it is natural. Google even endorses this method.

Build pages with content that attract visitors and links. It’s a good idea to target people who have the ability to link to you such as bloggers or social-media users.

Directory link building

Directories are still an effective form of link building. Make sure that the directory has a review policy where your site can be rejected, and you DON’T get a refund. If this is the case, you will find Google gives credit for the link. There are thousands of these available at cheap prices.

Article marketing

Writing and submitting articles to article directories is still an effective link-building technique. If the article gets syndicated, you can even pick up additional links.

Using an article syndication service may hold some value. You can usually get it done for a cheap price and pick up a good amount of inbound links. I would not rely primarily on this link building technique though, because of abuse, many of these sites have been discounted.

Content scrapers

Don’t spam, just get the spammers to help you. Enticing spammers to steal your content can bring in thousands of links.

Always, and I do mean always, link to yourself in your content. Ping as many services as possible with every piece of content. Over time, you will find that your content is being picked up by scrapers. Most of the time, they will leave the link in place, so you get some value.

There are many ways to get large quantities of links. The most effective tactics are completely natural. However, you can still rank well with manually-built links.

Traffic is what can get your revenue and sales. And driving traffic to websites is the most challenging task that any internet marketer faces. If you are cash-rich when you start your internet marketing business, you will be ready to spend some money on PPC and other paid ads to get targetted traffic. But what if you do not have that much money to spend?

Article Marketing has always been one of the most preferred form of getting free targetted traffic to your websites.  But there is more than only this reason to it. Article Marketing has a lot of other benefits that just driving traffic. These benefits can be called as the by-products of Article Marketing. What are these benefits? Why would you want to do Article Marketing?

Reasons to do Article Marketing

The 6 top reasons why you should do Article Marketing are as follows:

Backlinks – There is no better whitehat method to obtaining backlinks than Article Marketing. You should use a free article directory to post your content. After approval your article will be on the internet, sending traffic your way. Avoid using automatic spinners, these simply do not work. Always take the extra time to ensure your article is readable and won’t be rejected by the Article Directory.

Traffic – Always make sure you put a link to your site with the proper anchor text in every article you submit. Even if it is something as simple as “Click here for more information”. The person reading has interest in your content and will certainly want more information about the topic. If your article is bad, you will never get anyone to click your link. Write good articles!

Prestige – Having published articles all over the Internet will add to your credibility. As users read your articles they identify you as the expert on the subject. Of course, this goes both ways if your article is bad they will associate you with bad grammar and poor content. If your article has poor grammar or, doesn’t make sense the reader will assume you don’t have a clue. If you don’t write well or, don’t have the time hire someone. There are many services that offer article writing that are very inexpensive.

Eternal – Every month your article will still be out there, still gaining backlinks for your site. People can’t help but link to quality, interesting content. If you write something that is interesting or informative, people will link to you. However, if your article is unreadable you will gain no backlinks or traffic. I know it is very difficult to rate your own writing ability, ask a friend or, family member to proof read your work and give an honest assessment. Your content can be exceptional but if your writing is poor you are doomed.

Knowledge – When you begin writing your article you’re also gaining knowledge on your subject. This knowledge is invaluable for your current and future websites. Most articles I write come with the benefit of gaining experience and knowledge about the topic.

Help People – Some of the most visited articles help someone with a problem. Whenever you solve a problem write about it and publish the article. If you had the issue, I can guarantee you that someone else did too. Help them fix it and get quality backlinks at the same time?

This list should give you a good start. Just to be clear, the most important part of the process is good content! Nothing can replace good content. Whatever article you write you need to ensure that the content is of value to the reader.

Backlinks!!!

This is a topic that almost all bloggers would have written about and you might have read about. But none of the techniques that these bloggers and Internet Marketing Gurus give actually works. Blame it on the “NoFollow” tags everywhere.

Nobody is willing to give you a backlink and you are tired of trying to build some.

A very easy way of getting backlinks, about 3-4 years back was to comment on blogs. Good blogs, with good PR provided an excellent way of getting a few extremely targetted and valuable backlinks. But, spammers couldn’t just stand this. They spammed almost all blogs that they could find, consequently forcing the bloggers to put a “NoFollow” on their comments. Thus stopped the goodness of commenting.

The biggest obstacle to building backlinks by commenting is to find blogs that do not have a “NoFollow” on  their comments.

How will your find “DoFollow” blogs?

I had once discussed this in one of my blogs earlier. There is a service called Commenthunt which searches for blogs that have a “DoFollow” in them and returns the results for you.

But, off late I have noticed that their search results, though they were powered by Google, produced irrelevant results. They would return details of blogs which had zero PR or, that have not been updated for a long, long time.

So, in case you are interested in finding out good PR blogs that have a “DoFollow” in them, then I recommend you do it with Google’s blogsearch tool.

You can find it here.

This is a service from Google, that provides you an option of searching for “DoFollow” blogs.

Now you can easily search for informative blogs that have a good PR and that are in your own niche and add some valuable comments to them to get a backlink.

Please refrain from spamming these blogs.

Do not forget to let me know about your way of getting backlinks in the comment section.

P.S. My blog also has a “DoFollow” in its comment section.
