How to Get Incoming Links to Help With SEO

Getting links to a website, also known as backlinks, is an effective SEO technique. There are a number of ways to get backlinks. Some site owners buy links to their site, placing paid links in so-called link farms, but there is no reason to buy SEO links when they are readily available elsewhere.

      Use social bookmarking to get attention for your content. When your items are on a site like Digg or StumbleUpon, you can count on getting more views than if you didn't. These extra views can lead to extra bookmarking. This often leads to the content being linked to by site owners who saw it on the social media site.

      Post a link to your site on a forum. Most forums allow links to be posted somewhere on the site, usually at the bottom of your own posts. Some forums don't have indexed pages, but the ones that do will increase the number of SEO links your site has when the pages with links are crawled.

      Keep a blog. With your own blog, you can link to your site anywhere you like. If you have a Blogger blog, your permanent links will show up along with every post you make, giving you as many links as you have posts.

      Get links through article directories. If you can write a few articles that are accepted by article directories, each of those articles will contain a source box with your link. These articles are free for anyone who wants to reprint them, as long as they keep the box. Every time someone reprints it, you get that link as well.
