      Hi,

      If i hire a SEO company, what kind of links they will build for me. If anyone own a seo company can you let me know.My question is if i create a new website, what kind of link building techniques should i use other than, articles, press releases, social bookmarking, directories. As i am competiting with very tough competition. I have analyzed my competitors and they bought sitewides which are paid ones. Without paid ones i think it is is very hard for me to get into the competition. Can someone discuss more link building methods also.

      Awaiting for your responce.

      Regards.

        Hello;

        Well, it really depends on the type of business your in. Say if your in the "New Bicycle Business", I would start a campaign/blog on purchasing new bikes, and how to, ect.. If your competitors are not doing this it would be a great way to start. Also starting a Group in linked in has helped me generate a ton of traffic. Just simply asking people in my community for some link juice, or Likes, to create that SEO aggregation.

        Hope it help, considering the question is a bit vague..

        Cheers!

          As stated by Tom, creating useful helpful and interesting content and adding it to your website Is the best long term strategy for link building.  Over a long period of time useful articles are highly likely to receive some links. What's often not mention is the value you gain from blog traffic. Even if no one links to your blog you will gain more traffic to your website. I've had many resulting sales due to our blog traffic. Not to mention you will be able to post your blog on blog directories (so you will at least get these links)

          You could also create valuable content by building tools/widgets for your industry. Infographics are great to add to your blog and are often popular to share.

          Other techniques you could  employ is bog commenting (although comments must be relevant and add value to the conversion).

          Hold a contest, you will be able to submit to contest website which will link to your contest.

          Donate to charity. (often tax refundable,  so if you have the budget It can be a win win for the charity and you)

          Here's some links to some ideas for link building.

          There are heap of other techniques but you should  spend most of your time building or buying valuable content. Think of high quality content as assets. While other techniques are often just expenses.
