Link Building
Naturally building your quantity and quality of links
Link building is part of the off-page optimisation of your website, and is the process of getting other websites to link to you (this is often referred to as landing the links). There is an old debate on “content vs. links”, where some people believe that content is king, and that good content will get natural links. Others believe that links are king, and that if you have enough links you will always get a good ranking. The truth is, for a successful campaign you need good both good quality content, and good quality and quantity of links. If you have two similar websites with good content, the site with the better quantity and quality of links will always rank higher.
There are lots of techniques for building links to your site. The fastest way to build links to your site is through directory submissions, and there are lots of good quality free & paid directories. The best free directories are human edited, and although it may be a time consuming process to get listed on these directories, it is worthwhile for the benefits they provide. The best paid directories include Best of the Web and Yahoo, and your site can be listed on these directories for a fee providing it meets their requirements.
