Alternative Ways To Build Links To Your Website

By Tom Lindstrom | Dec 19, 2007

Articles are important when it comes to building links to your website, but there are other methods you should also use because it is not wise to rely on only one way to build links and it is important that your website looks good in the eyes of the search engines. In this article I will show a few alternative methods to build links to your website that are almost as effective as writing and submitting articles.

Social Bookmarking:
This is a quite new strategy and one of the best ways to build links to your website.I wrote an article about social bookmarking some time ago.I recommend reading the article for more information about this strategy.

PPC: (Pay Per Click)
You can also buy targeted traffic to your website to increase your sales and brand exposure. Regardless of the place where people find your website,chances are that people will link to you. Pay Per Click works like this: You subscribe to a PPC program and when this is completed your link will appear at a specific time and place.

You need to pay the advertiser a pre-set amount when someone clicks on your link and goes to your site.These amounts are normally only a few cents.

Link Trading:
Reciprocal links are not as effective as they used to be, but this method works when it is done correctly and small scale.Find a relevant link partner that will send you traffic.Do not use FFA sites, link farming or paid services that claim to submit your link to 10,000 places.

Build A Squidoo Lens:
Building a Squidoo lens takes only about 20 minutes and is free.Add links to your website and you can also add your RSS feed.I recommend taking the time to build a good and informative lens. I built a Squidoo lens about my blog.Update the information on your Squidoo lens regularly.The search engines prefer fresh content and are known to index Squidoo lenses quickly.

Hubpages is another service similar to Squidoo where you build a mini-site with information of a specific topic.Hubpages is a great tool in building links back to your website and create a strong web presence.

Forum Signatures:
Sign up for online forums that are in the same niche that you are.Contribute to the discussions and add a link back to your website in the signature file.Do not spam the forums, post only when you have something to say.

Commenting On Other Blogs:
Start commenting on other peoples blogs that are relevant to your blog.A great way to build links back to your website and build a relationship with other bloggers.Be careful no to spam, comment only when you have something to say.Look for blogs that have the no follow tag removed.This will give you a link back to your site.

Commenting on all related blogs is always a good idea, even if the “no follow” is not removed.If you post relevant comments people will visit your site anyway to learn more about you and what you have to say.
