Stop Artificial Link Building

October 26, 2008 by Butterfly Filed under: SEO

Conventional SEO methods like directory submission and link exchange are of very less value these days, Google doesn’t even consider high quality paid directory submission any more. All these artificial SEO methods are not less than spamming and conventional SEO people are actually a kind of spammers who just keep on pasting their hyperlinks without any code of conduct.

This way of link acquiring artificial backlinks is not adopted by Google and other search engines for a long time by now and many of the high profile websites have been penalized too. Actually SEO services offered in cheap prices can’t offer you much more than these old methods of spamming but Quality SEO is far much more costlier and time consuming which requires combined efforts of SEO, web designers and software professionals.

Time has come to discover new and new things that could multiply by itself in terms of link building, think for the natural ways of getting backlinks that could hold top positions for long time in search engines. Few of the recommended ways to get Natural Links are as follows :-

Create a theme – Create a high quality theme or template for CMS platform like Joomla or Wordpress. Web Designers will have to make special efforts over here to give an attractive theme or template.

Blogging – Make a Blog , if possible make more than one blog with entirely different content. Although SEO people do make blogs but here I am talking about well structured and regularly updated blogs with unique and informational content with only a few hyperlinks. Normally a regular SEO does paste two or three links in each and every post and this way makes it look like real dustbin filled with links, this should be avoided, only a single permanent link is enough.

Articles – Write articles and submit them in quality directories. Article Submission is normally done by the SEO’s but not in the way that it should be. At least 15 -20 articles per month must be written and submitted into these directories. Before submitting them in directories paste your article in Blog and then submit it into the directory, there you can paste a link to the resource of original article at Blog and one link of your website or webpage which you want to promote.

Scripts and Add ons – Create useful stuff like Mozilla Firefox Add ons or scripts or Gadgets that could be beneficial for others.Firefox add ons and Gadgets for iGoogle could be a good idea for traffic boost.

YouTube – Video sharing is another good tool which has now now become popular among SEO’s but only a useful and quality video will do the job over here.

Ebooks – Make a Good quality ebook with the help of web designing team that has some unique and quality content to offer.
