Let’s keep this link building tutorial as simple as one, two, three, four, five.
If you follow these five steps in order, you’ll quickly build backlinks to your site which will propel you to better search engine rankings.
This is not hard to do and anyone can do this link building strategy. The important thing to remember is that it all just takes ACTION.
Link Building Tutorial #1: Great Content
You need great content. No amount of marketing will substitute for great content. But if you have great content, marketing it will be easy.
Great content is, for most businesses, content which helps someone solve a problem easier than they would solve it themselves. In creating great content, you use your expert experience to show people how to live better lives.
Great content also needs to be easy to consume. Articles need to be easy to read, podcasts need to be easy to hear, and videos need to be easy to watch—so maintain high production values. Don’t just publish content to publish content, but publish the best you can given your other business constraints.

==>See what I think is quality content.
Link Building Tutorial #2: Guest Post
New sites need an initial set of incoming links to help attract their initial traffic. After you have traffic, it’s easy to get more links, but getting those initial links is challenging—unless you know about guest posts.
All websites have the same basic requirement for great content, but writing or producing great content is hard and time consuming, so any successful site loves to hear that someone is willing to offer them high-quality content practically for free.
That’s you offering them almost free content. You produce high-quality content and give it to them at no cost—except that they must link back to your site. This is an invaluable strategy when it comes to back link building.
Many sites will happily agree to this deal. The only sites who won’t usually accept your content only refuse because they’re already inundated with offers of free content.
Basic Blog Tips, Comluv and Famous Bloggers are my absolute favorite sites to guest post on. These guys are organized when it comes to publishing guest posts!
Link Building Tutorial #3: Link Forward For Links Back
You’ve used guest posts to get your initial links and you probably have some traffic to play with now, so it’s time to use your current traffic to get more links to get more traffic.
The first and easiest strategy is to link to other sites—especially small sites.
When you link to other sites, some people who read your pages may visit those other sites and those other sites will see in their website statistics report that you’re sending them traffic. Many of those sites, especially small sites as desperate for traffic as you are, will link back to your site as a sort of thank you.
Link Building Tutorial #4: Link Bait
Your traffic is increasing by a few percent every month and you’re starting to behave more like a link building expert, so now is the time to grow by leaps and bounds using the link bait method. Try one of the following techniques:
• Run a contest by offering prizes to people for mentioning your site on social media.
• Write a controversial article and ask people to link back to it with their own opinions.
• Create an amazing piece of content, such as an infographic, and let people repost it to their blogs if they link back to you.
• Invent your own technique for getting large groups of people to link to your site at once.
Link Building Tutorial #5: Link Partners
You’ve established hundreds of incoming links and you have steady traffic, so now is the time to solidify your ranking within your niche by partnering with other sites in your niche and related niches.
Approach other popular sites you enjoy and offer to become link partners. Once a month or so, you’ll mention them in a new blog post and link to their site. In return, they’ll do the same for your site.
In a short while, you’ll have multiple incoming links from high-value sites in your niche all with barely any work on your part using a method which can be repeated indefinitely without any further necessary link building tutorial.

Great set of ideas for link building. Guest posting is a cool way to boost your profile and ranking. Now the trend is about link earning. Create quality content so that others link to you. For that you need compelling content and others are compelled to link to you. I like the idea of the link bait especially the infographic idea, yet to implemented by me.
Thanks for these great ideas. Its going to be my next step.

Love all these strategies of building links and one of the strategy like Link Partners, about me, I’d put link to blog that are on the same level as me so there will be a high chance of getting link back or ask them to link back. Otherwise, links won’t go back but focus on quality is what really important for readers.

I have been reading almost everywhere, guest blogging for link building. But no one talks about writing or publishing contents on web2.0 sites or networks. I means creating squidoo lens, hubpages, writing or linking with Wikipedia, getting links from managed directories. Its my personal view, creating contents for web2.0 sites can help you get lots of free high authority back links along with huge traffic.

Ms. Ileane’s video showed that it is important to put your link before the description. Youtube cuts the description short if it is too long. With the link before the description it is sure to show up.

Hi Mitz,
I’m completely disagree with your 3rd point of link building strategy – Linking smaller sites to get back-links.
Linking smaller, and non-authoritative websites for the sake of back-links can push you in to a Link-trap, like – linking to bad-neighborhood (cheap sites), or getting numerous back-links from cheap sites.
Think about Penguin, and give more emphasis on Link Earning than Link Building.

Overwhelmingly linking to smaller and new blogs for the sake of link-building, and hoping they will be big one day is not a good strategy. Lots of sites suffering Penalty (Penguin) for that. This is my opinion.

Great tutorial. Seems like a simple and effective strategy. I hadn’t really even thought of linking forward for back-links, looks like I may need to reevaluate my link building strategy.

Hi Mitz, Its always nice to hear from you. I have read one comment in this post that every person can’t create good content. I think that doesn’t make any sense to me. If you are on the online business field you have to learn things from others, You have to do everything quite effectively. Secondary sources are necessary. But they will not work for you till the content is not good enough to read.

Third and fourth both points are very important and effective to increase the high quality, do-follow and relevant backlinks. In this way we can easily increase our traffic and visibility in search engine. The most important point is “Write a controversial article and ask people to link back to it with their own opinions.” In this way we can motivate readers to keep in touch with out shared posts and blog.

I never really planned a link wheel as such but it is usually multiple web 2.0 properties linking back to a main site or an article that points to your main site. I do have web 2.0 properties but do not participate in a planned link wheel. I think they are too obvious now.

There is no secret that content is King, what happens is that many bloggers fail to succed because there is no pasion at all, they seem to be only attracted by the idea of monetizing their blogs that forget giving qualitity to their readers.

Was just searching the net on increasing traffic by link building and found your comment about linking to other sites (especially small ones) interesting.
Also just wanted to inform of a minor typing error for Link Building Tutorial #3: Link Forward For Links Back.
You say:
“Many of those sites, especially small sites as (I assume should say “are” instead of “as”) desperate for traffic as you are. I know how easy it is to make these typing errors.
Thank for the tips
Link Building Tutorial #3: Link Forward For Links Back
Nice article. Totally agree with “no amount of marketing will substitute for great content. ”
I think link and traffic, although the more will benefit the other, doesn’t always be statistic to depend on. What does a article/web page if it attract masses and make it bounce away and never return?
Great content always comes first. Sooner or later, backlinks, quality traffic will cone by itself. Keep writing quality content and remember that patience is a virtue

For guest posting your site needs to be “ready” meaning that you have some decent articles there and the site layout is good. That way, when people visit your site, they’ll most likely stay if you have good content. If your site has nothing, they’ll just close it and as a result, you’ll get a high bounce rate
