Link building? I really dont get it is there an easy way

[robotseo]

I have always stayed away from sites like link market however in doing some competitor research one of our main competitors seems to have a number of links from linkmarket so maybe it does work, but for how long it works with Googles war on spam is another question!

I'm afraid the only way to get high quality backlinks is hard work

Easy

Cheap

Safe

Pick any 2.

The goal is not to exchange links. The goal is to get links.

Link exchange websites are not good; stop using them.

Start producing content that people want to link to.

Advertise and don't link back.

Guest blog posts.

Just checked out SoloSEO, like it Luke. Thxz for sharing. Makes the lb job a little easier.

Great post and so true! Many people think that link-building means adding to paid directories and commenting on a zillion blogs. I have many times had to break the bad news to someone and let them know that they would actually have to email and interact with people in their niche.

I read a post on seomoz about http://ontolo.com/campaign-manager#link-building.

I'm giving it a try right away.

Agreed

I am a little surprised I didn't see any comments that mentioned making sure the content is actually link worthy on your site in question. If you start there it will make the rest of your job much easier.....

Link building is like all other aspects of SEO, no easy way, no fast track. Slow and steady wins the race.

If there was an "easy way" then everyone and anyone would be ranking #1 in Google...and eventually competition would be so saturated there would be no point in having a website at all! Good things come to those who work hard, stay committed to their vision, and can learn and adapt to change!
