How to Build the Best Backlinks to Your Website
I know your burning backlink question.
You have probably asked yourself, many times, “How do I build backlinks to my website for the best SEO results?”
You’re not alone. Even people with backlink experience wonder this from time to time.
The Question of Getting Backlinks
So, now you know it’s a commonly-asked question.
That might offer you some relief.
If lots of people are asking, surely someone has answered the question in a satisfying way.
Yes and no.
Numerous self-called experts are out there giving different tips and advice but, unfortunately, most of the time, the only thing they do is confuse people.
Today, I’ll make things and simple.
How to Build the Best Backlinks to Your Website
In this article, I will talk about how to build backlinks to your website, and also tell you about the links that can potentially hurt your rankings.
The old times when all types of backlinks were considered good for SEO are long gone. For years, many webmasters relied on sloppy techniques and used automated tools to build hundreds of backlinks every day. Things have changed a lot since then.
In today’s SEO, high-quality and relevant backlinks have the most value.
But how do you build good backlinks?!
Here are some tips you should follow to get good backlinks to your website.
Trust no one
Don’t rely on the tips you read from unknown sources. If somebody discovers the secret to rank first on Google for competitive keywords, it’s very unlikely that they will share it with strangers.
Always do your research and conduct your own experiments With very little money, you can create a website to test all types of backlinks and have your own case studies.
Build backlinks with patience
If you have just created your website, the chances of getting fast and natural links are almost zero. It’s one or the other.
Natural links take time.
Saying your prayer before going to bed, in the hopes that Forbes or the Washington Post will link to you, won’t get you anywhere. Instead, you will have to build some links and drive relevant traffic to your website.
How do you do this?
One common method is to write guest posts on reputable websites in your niche.
Write the right guest posts for the right sites
When you write guest posts for other websites, don’t do it just for the purpose of getting a link in the author bio.
This method has been abused a lot lately, but with the right strategy you can stand up in front of the crowd.
Here are some tips to scale your guest posting technique:
- Don’t overlook websites that don’t have a “write for us” page. Not every website has one of these. Some of the best websites for getting backlinks are ones without these pages.
- Only write for highly reputable websites in your niche. Don’t waste time writing for websites with a Domain Authority level lower than that of your site. Your link will have very little value, and you might end up having your link removed without further notice.
- Write more than one time for each website. Build a relationship. Put effort into an ongoing collaboration. Otherwise, it will be obvious you are writing only to build backlinks.
- Nofollow links are great. Not for SEO, but for traffic and to get more followers on social media.
- Always link to your social media accounts in the author bio of your articles.
