Finding backlinks to your Blog

By admin | January 28, 2009

How do you find the backlinks to your blog? Do you know what they are and why backlinks are important?Backlinks are one of the best ways of pushing you up the search engine rankings and they come about when more and more sites and directories “point” to your and make Google become aware of you.

Content and lots of different methods of “pointing” are the way to do this. You could have a number of associated blogs with links to your main blog.Its common to get the main blog as the  “money” blog ie  thats the one that collects the list and sells the occasional product  (or in come cases not so occasional!). The other blogs have content that points to the main blog using keywords and other anchor text.

Other ways include,submissions to social bookmarking sites, to directories and press releases. There are a plethora of methods all of which involve some work to set up but can be automated ( for a cost).

One of the main methods of promoting your blog and creating links is article marketing. This does involve some work at least in the beginning but there are many ways to to do this. I have written about article marketing in previous posts and I will write some more on this on the next few posts.

Backlinks then, the lifeblood of internet marketing. More to follow!

    Another great way to collect some easy backlinks is by posting comments on other peoples blogs that have the ‘dofollow’ attribute in place :) Even if the blog is ‘nofollow’ you can still collect some link juice for your site.

    Great blog by the way, I enjoyed your “Thinking of Quitting” post. Keep up the good work! Thanks for the free course!
