Link building is an essential promotional process for any ones internet business. If you neglect this task you will be at risk of losing a sizable amount of potential profits. SEO and Link Building is a successful affiliate marketers best friend. I've compiled together some of my most favorite linking methods that I use to achieve great rankings in the search engines.
Blog Comments
Blog comments are pretty easy to understand and use for linking purpose. It's always important to Find yourself a blog related to your niche and make a relevant comment. You can do this using google by entering the following your niches main keyword
Also, it's important to note that you should read the post and understand what you are commenting on. It's highly unlikely that the blog owner will approve the comment if its something mundane like "Good Site".
Article Marketing
Article Marketing has been my secret link gaining weapon against my competitors for years now. It's extremely important that you at some point learn to write a good and proper article. Its extremely simple for one article to result in literally hundreds of fresh backlinks.
Article Marketing is fairly basic. Write a 500-750 word article and submit away! Some websites will offer automated mass article submission services. These are a huge timesaver and will benefit you greatly.
Guestbook Comments
Guestbooks have been around since the internet was first made mainstream. Although, they are less common you can still benefit linkwise from a good guestbook backlink. There are some really old guestbooks that can provide you with a huge authority link increase fast. Google ranks old pages higher and they pass major linkjuice on to your web page.
Stay away from Guestbooks that have already been exploited massively by spammers. These can at times be penalized by search engines or marked as link farms.
Creating a Squidoo For An Easy Link Boost
Having your own Squidoo page dedicated to your website is an effortless way to gain a nice PR backlink for minimal work. It's vital that you provide useful content for your Squidoo page. Create a nice article to go on the front page and add a relevant RSS feed to it. Keep the guestbook open and reply to any comments that people may have.
Social Bookmarking
Social Bookmarking is the latest internet craze and is showing no signs of stopping. It's an excellent idea to take advantage of it and make it an easy way to gain good backlinks. Signup for a service such as OnlyWire that will automatically socially bookmark a group of the most popular social bookmark sites. Bookmark a few pages of your site and move on.
Getting EDU Links
This is kind of a shifty area of linkbuilding but if you can in someway find a .gov or .edu available to post links then you'll get a serious increase in search engine rankings.
Good Content
I saved the best for last. The best kind of backlink you can get is a free one. Providing useful content that people will want to talk about or post in forums is the single most powerful link building weapon in your arsenal.
If you can build a buzz around your content the results can be astronomical. It's harder to achieve this but very possible!
These are my favorite link building methods for marketing my home based business. It's essential that you combine one or more of these methods and diversify! Don't rely on just one method - Try more than one and perfect them all!

Creative Free Ways To Gain Backlinks
If you are a search engine marketer or website owner you know that search engines are important. You need to feed the search engine spiders with high quality unique content and authoritative relevant links back to your website. This process isn't always easy and you will constantly need to think outside of the box. Here are some strategies that I've been using to gain high quality backlinks successfully for a few months now.
Squidoo
Squidoo is a creative website that allows anyone to create a free web page easily and write on any topic they choose. They also have a unique revenue sharing program in which you can make easy money with your free web page.
What most marketers don't know is that the search engines love Squidoo. If you can get a few links back from Squidoo you can gain in the search engine rankings. I've been creating squidoo pages related to my niche for awhile now and my rankings have went through the roof! Setting up a free web page there is easy to do and can be quite fun.
It's important that when you create a lens there you create some unique content relevant to your niche. After you create your content you can configure it there with various options. It's pretty self explanatory but you should keep in mind you want a QUALITY back link. Once you've configured all of the various options you should post your content with a link back to your website.
Extra Tip: Add a link from your website back to it. This will encourage your current visitors to visit it and interact while also getting your lens rankings higher. This will give your Squidoo a much needed boost.
Free Web Hosts
Free Web Hosts have been around for a long time and most of them out there possess a lot of authority with the search engines. They spider and rank these pages regularly. I usually make one page websites with a unique article and a link back to my site.
Free Blogs
Free blog hosts like Blog Spot and Blogger are owned by google. Google constantly spiders these pages and they make for good links. If you have the time, create a blog at one of the many free blog hosts and create some good relevant content. Post every other day for a couple of weeks. Make sure to drop a link to your website in each post.
Free Forums
There are many free forum hosts out there that will let you have your very own forum. These sites usually have a high page rank and are slightly aged. These can provide good rankings and a link back from them usually does well.
There are many other creative ways to get links back to your site. Try to think outside the box and constantly reinvent your linking strategies.
