How to Build Quality Backlinks to Your Blog Posts? is a question that is often asked by internet marketers, particularly those that are new to internet marketing. This article will help to answer this vitally important question.
In essence the answer is no different to the answer for any other type of website - there are several techniques that you can use and these are outlined below:-
1) Articles - by writing and, more importantly, distributing articles that relate to your blog posts you can not only get your message across to a wide audience but also help to generate those all important backlinks via your authors signature. The key is to post your articles to good quality directories like EzineArticles, Articlebase and Goarticles. You may also wish to consider using a distribution service such as iSnare.
2) Search engine submission - by submitting your site to the many engines out there you will not only help generate traffic but also generate further backlinks.
3) Forums - by posting relevant and useful posts (complete with a signature that contains a backlink to your site) to relevant forums, you will generate further links.
4) Content - as the saying goes content is king and by having good quality, fresh content you will offer a clear incentive for other sites to link you.
5) Freebies - everyone loves a freebie and if you can offer something tempting on your blog site you will get people to link to you.
6) Comments on other blogs - if you post relevant and useful posts (complete with a signature that contains a backlink to your site) on other peoples blogs you will generate further links. An interesting slant on this is through the use of the comment luv WordPress plugin - we will deal with this in another article. A particular favorite tool of ours is "comment kahuna" - great for finding relevant blogs to post to!
This is obviously not an exhaustive list and we cover some of these subjects in other articles but hopefully we will have given you some food for thought.
