Creating backlinks is pretty easy. Whenever you write a new post or create a new product you want to optimize the webpage to its potential. Don’t leave a webpage unoptimized.
Does that sound too complicated? I have 9 easy steps to get backlinks, increase webpage ranking and increase traffic to your website.
Lately I have had my share of writers block. I was writing 5 posts per week. I enjoyed the traffic that posting 5 times on my blog brought. I don’t have the capacity to keep up with it. What do I do? Also, what do I do when I want to also drive traffic to my website. I didn’t want to completely depend on my blog to have my business site move up the ladder in search engine ranking.
I didn’t want traffic to slow down because I was busy fulfilling orders, had writers block or was on vacation with my family. Maintaining and increasing traffic is a huge obstacle. How can it be done easily?
Lets start with what I won’t do. I won’t submit (at least not now) my site to banner topsites. Those are really to draw traffic to the owners of the topsite, not your site. You invest a lot of time and effort in getting your site indexed in these topsites for it not to really drive your business forward. I participated in banner campaigns 5 years ago and I do not see any of that invested time in the search engines. You want long term results.
Long term results are done through racking up backlinks. Back links are
A link coming from another website to your own. The number and quality of backlinks that your site has can affect your search engine optimization efforts, as some search engines provide significant weight to the backlinks of a site.
If you are working on an SEO campaign, you should include efforts to get links to your site on related sites with high ranking in search engines for the terms you are targeting. This “link love” will help improve your search engine ranking as well. Try to avoid being linked on link farms as that can hurt your search engine results. ~ About.com
