Quality Link Building Techniques


Since the day, Penguin update rolled out quality link building has become more crucial for SEO’s.  I would like to share few techniques which I am using recently.

1. Set up Google alerts that notify you every time someone mentions your branded keywords and check out each site that come up in alerts. Then you can send linking request to webmasters of some of those websites which are perfect for back linking purpose.

2. You can try for .edu links by asking your client’s staff to sign up for their college alumni network where they can put company’s website. One of the natural way to get edu links.

3. Update blog at least once in week and share blog post on Google+, Tweeter, and Face book

4. Creating public profile on

These websites do not have No-followed links in their public profiles


5. Link building with competitor analysis. Consider competitors with position 10, 11, 12 as these websites work hard to get on page one, so we can get good source for links. Use of commands like intext:domain-to-check(.)com for competitor back link analysis.

6. Try using different anchor texts for linking purpose. For example if the key term is “ABC”, then use “ABC”,”ABC blog”, “Contact ABC “,”ABC services” etc.    

7. You can look for theme based guest post opportunities. For example, searched for author “XYZ” who writes on particular issue, then run query ["XYZ” Guest] in Google search. You will get many sites which allow guest post & even you look for your niche.
