Backlink Building Places

Where can I go to get follow backlinks to my site to improve my DA and PA, etc?

My first major comment will be to choose wisely, shop around and make sure any SEO company you take on explains how they go about the link building strategy. Source someone local, or at least in your own country who understands you, your needs and your business environment.

Secondly, you should consider what you are already doing - or think about what you should do. i.e.

• Are you becoming part of communities online?
• Are you contributing to blogs or writing some great content that relates to your website
• What are you doing to engage people on social media
• Do you know what your competitors are doing - so you can learn the good stuff and avoid the junk?

Your question sounds simple, but you need to balance knowing what you can (and maybe should) be doing yourself, while taking on a business you can work closely with who will help you on this front.

Why are you trying to increase your DA & PA?  DA & PA are just metrics created by SEOMoz to help you get a rough idea of what a page/site's authority is.  Raising these numbers should never be an end goal in and of themselves.

Getting good follow links all depends on your niche.  Are there any blogs in your niche or related niches which you can guest post for?  Any niche specific portals or directories?  Do you have any friends or business partners that might link to you?

I am in the real estate business, and I am trying to get three key phrases to rank well for azbestlistings.com homes for sale in casa grande az, homes for sale in mesa az, and homes for sale in yuma az.

These three key phrases are cities that I and two other realtors work separately. We all have our own city on the team. Hence, I want to get myself into the first 5. However, I am coming nowhere near page 1 for these key phrases, so I figured from what everybody tells me I need back links.

I work all day long as a realtor, so my brain is not super focused by the time I sit down to do my seo work. Basically working two long jobs, so if somebody says go back linking I say ok, but just where do I do it in the quickest and smartest way since I do not have a ton of time to do it.

Each agent is responsible for working their city or city pages.
