Link building

I keep sending personal emails to website asking for a link form them but every one says no
how do other website get so many links to there website
whats the best software to use

Hi,
The reality is that some of these links will have been paid for (in the form of ads, advertorials, etc).
Other ways to obtain "quick links":
- Contact webmasters (of relevant websites) where you spot broken links. Kindly mention this and ask them to include a link to your website... they might be more willing since you helped them spot some broken links.
- Do some Blog post commenting on relevant Blogs.
- Add your site to some directories.
Obviously non of the above is very clever and as mentioned before it would be more beneficial to develop a content strategy and start earning links, but in order to get things moving quickly it could help you a little already?
As to software, I do like Buzzstream I must admit because it allows you to manage your outreach campaigns more efficiently.
Cheers

If you don't know the difference between 'their' and 'there' then I doubt that you are capable of creating the sort of content that will get links from worthwhile places.
If your business can support it get a good company to help you. If your business can't support it then consider dropping it and finding out what you're good at. Don't waste another second of your life.
The internet is 99.9% rubbish and the current trend is to reward the 0.1%.

Instead of asking for something, stand out from the crowed and GIVE them something.
Link to them in one of your posts, share something of there's on your FB profile, engage on their forums and add value to the conversations.
Helping someone without asking for anything in return is a great way to build a lasting relationship. In time, they will link to you without you even having to ask, even if you ask, at least you wont be another random in their email inbox. After engaging with them, at least they would know who you are and might respond positively to your emails.
Just remember, its not about "building" links anymore. Its about earning them!

What are some Boilerplate Link-Building Activities for a new site?
Assuming you have built a new sophisticated site that involves high user engagement as in bounce rate < 30% sophisticated genuine content (pages > 2000 chars) best possible site speed what are some of the boilerplate link building activities you would execute under which considerations? Activities: I am thinking of things along the lines of building X social media links using a fiverr submission to curated link directories reach out for high quality links with thought leaders etc Considerations: I am thinking of things along the lines of keep a constant link gain velocity over the first 3 months make sure you place links across pages not just the root domain make sure you have a mix of follow and no-follow links and a natural anchor text distribution In short I am hoping we can crowdsource a linkbuilding starting guide in the SEO world of 2015. /T

Link building - am I too cautious?
The only backlink building I am doing is guest blogging as it seems most other methods have potential to harm rankings in the post panda/penguin era. As mentioned in another post I'm trying to get a strategy for social media that works as I believe social likes/shares are important. What other link building methods can I use that are totally safe? Is it okay to 'buy' a link on botw r examleas theyre editorally reviewed? I'm asking myself 2 questions when acquiring limks. 1. Would I want this link if google didn't exist and 2. Will it bring me relevant traffic. I'm almost scared of link building in case google punishes me. Are there any legitimate methods I'm missing?

Link Building for a Newbie!
Hi Guys & Girls. Following my previous question, I seem to really be getting to grips with SEOmoz and all its features which seem fantastic. As mentioned before, I am quite new to this SEO game and learning all the time!! Through all my reading and learning over the last week I have learnt that Link Building is one of the most powerful ways of increasing your SEO game. I'm really trying to get my head around it all. I have come across things like "Link Farming" which seems to be a big no no in terms of Google. Submitting to Link directories etc etc. Now for somebody new, this all comes across quite confusing. Can anybody out there provide me with a really simple but informative way to effectively Link Build? Best practices etc etc! I really want to learn and "up" my game! The website that I am working with is http://www.advanced-incar.co.uk Many thanks, Tim

Build links through blogging?
Although my site is a wordpress site it presently has about as many static pages as blog posts. The site has a lot of directory links and is doing pretty good with a PR3 after about a year. When I first put the site up I had a well known blogging expert help me with the permalinks and a couple of other things and he said that with a blog there is no need to build links, it can all be done through natural link acquisition off of the blog posts. I was skeptical at the time because it seemed that a lawyer's site was something not a lot of people would be interested enough in to link to it. Now I am thinking about trying his stragegy, as 1 of my blog posts that I put up on a very topical subject immediately got about 15 backlinks. My questions are: Is it reasonable to try to build links just by posting frequent topical blog posts? If yes, should I have links in the blog posts to my home page, to internal pages, or both? \ Paul

Link Building Through Blogs
A client of mine wants to look into new areas of link building after convincing them that their current link building strategies (purchasing multiple links from god knows where) was not working well for them. Essentially I felt they were spinning their wheels. Now, we are looking into content related blogs to get some honest links for their site. They sell sports equipment and we are looking at sports blogs to get links/partnerships. Most of these blogs want sponsorship fees or advertising fees. From an ethical standpoint I understand buying links is not the best idea. But because these are blogs that earn traffic, have relevant content, and can be helpful for the advertisement aspect to link to people who might be interested in their products as well. There shouldn't be a problem in acquiring a few of these links if the budget allows for it, correct? Also are blogs a good source to acquire links from?
