How To Get Links Fast

Why build links for seo? The fact of the matter is that seo link building is necessary if you want to rank competitively.  Yes it’s the difficult and tedious job of building anchored links to your blog, pages and sites that will be the critical factor in getting that site ranked.

On page factors such as meta tags, alt tags, keyword placement, tags and so forth are also factors that need to be considered. What one must understand though is that the link building is about 90 percent of it. The link building is the critical component of an seo campaign and not the simple on page stuff. In fact you can rank a blank page with enough links!

So now that we’ve established the importance of a good seo link building campaign I will talk about where we can get links, what kind of links and the most efficient way to harvest those links.

I will start with answering what kind of links one should get.  It helps if we look through googles eyes. How can we do that? Easy, just look at the sites google is already ranking and see how their links look. Do these ranking sites have lots of links from directories? If so then it might be a good idea for you to get lots of directory links.

Do the top ranking sites in this imaginary niche have lots of links from article directories? Then you should. But one thing that is common to all niches and all seo link building campaigns is anchored links. That’s the most important thing to remember.  If you want to rank for the keyword “butter” then your anchored links should say, “butter” - it’s that simple.

Seo link building is not rocket science but the challenges involved do make themselves apparent after a short time. You’ll find yourself running out of places to get links. That’s when you have to think out of the box and get a little creative.  I hope to delve into some of those interesting and unconventional approaches to getting links in a future post.

For now remember that if you go on an seo link building campaign you need to get anchored links. Secondly remember that you should look at where your competition is getting their links and build a similar profile for your own site.
