Be one of the few bloggers who sees getting backlinks in the proper light.
Quality backlinks flow to your blog directly and indirectly.Â
Most crave direct backlinks through trades. Others engage in various schemes to get direct links from successful bloggers but miss out on highly effective, indirect methods. Worry not; I will discuss these techniques below.
I teach a cumulative approach to gaining quality backlinks. Look below. Successful bloggers link to me based on multiple strategies. For example, I may link to their blog, retweet their latest post, share their latest post to Facebook and drop a genuine blog comment for them. Being smitten with my multi-channel approach, said blogger befriends me and links to Blogging From Paradise…..sooner or later.
Note; be consistent. Backlinks take time to accrue. Follow these tips patiently. Never expect an instant backlink from any blogger. Gaining trust takes time. Scoring quality links takes time.
Use a few tactics below to forge strong blogging relationships. Help people. Bond with people. Trusting bloggers link to credible bloggers who publish truly helpful content. Never look past indirect backlink-building strategies. Currying favor with successful bloggers is still the best way to gain indirect backlinks.
