Peek On My Closet

It’s been quite awhile that I’ve been discussing about SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Now, I’ll review the steps or processes that can lead to successful SEO. One of them is good link building.

I have mentioned on my post if you can remember. (Here’s the title: Top 10 Link Building Strategies) It’s about the best strategies in link building. One of these strategies is Article Submission. To further explain (if you’re not aware with this), It is a process of submitting your original write-ups to websites that accepts articles for free. There so many kinds of Article submission websites that can be found in the Internet and two of my trusted sites are eZinArtiles, and Article Alley . I won’t mention much about the sites, I allow you to review them yourself. (Grin).

Article submission is the most time consuming strategy but the best that you could get is that it provides only one way links. To further explain what is “one way linking”. It’s the back link or the incoming link to your site that do not receive links coming from YOUR site. It’s good since it increases your link popularity. And Google love that. Well, there are some Article Submission websites that are actually paid but free service is good (I guess). If you have enough time to do SEO then start submitting your articles now.

1. Participate in Forums. Use your keyword as signature links in all forums that you have. Don’t over use your keyword, you may just insert it in a sentence or phrase. Be active.

2. Comment on Blogs. Try to find other blogs that relevant to yours and provide quality comments. Make sure that the blogs don’t have “no follow” attribute. It may not give you traffic. Post comments that link back to your blog.

3. Do some Link Exchange. This is one of a linking building strategy that is really effective. Look for websites or blogs and try to link with them. This won’t be a pain in the ass if you link to sites that are relevant to yours. It’s always important to link with relevant sites to avoid “spammy” back links.

4. Post new and fresh contents Write an article for your blog site or website and update it twice a week.

5. Submit articles to Article Directories. This is the most time consuming strategy that you may overcome BUT it’s one of the most effective way of gaining one way links.

6. Submit your site to Web Directories. Research for good web directories and submit your site. Make sure that the category you choose is really relevant to your site so that it may not be disapproved by the editors.

7. Submit to RSS Feed Sites. Get your RSS link and submit it to several RSS feed sites.

8. Ping your site. After updating or adding new stuff on your site, ping it immediately on pinging sites such as Pingoat. The purpose of this is to inform other sites that you have just updated your site.

9. Be active on Social Networks. Look for social networks which are really gaining high traffic such as MySpace, and Facebook. Find other bloggers, website owners, even new friends, and share your thoughts and opinion. I bet you’ll completely gain traffic.

10. Bookmark your blog. Don’t forget to Bookmark or Tag your blog. This would also be very helpful in link building.
