What is Link Building / Backlinks?

Backlinks considered as reference link the more reference you have the better the ranking you got. Backlinking is a process of getting backlinks from authoritative and relevant websites. The basic reason for acquiring backlinks is to tell or show Google that your website shows legit and accurate information on a topic and this helps in website and web pages ranking.

This article will show you easy ways of making and acquiring high-quality backlinks.

1. Make Shareable Content To Get Notables as Backlinks

Your content can only be shareable if it is shareworthy and if you want your website to gain worldwide credibility then this is one of many ways of getting high-quality backlinks. Every website wants their content to be shared by influencers, publishers and bloggers and that gets you a good backlink which can be only done if it is unique and thoughtful. 

Tip: This will require a lot of creativity, so, take your time in writing content that is link worthy.

2. Update About Niche Specific Stats and Facts

A single fact and stat can tell much about what is going on in an industry and people now like to read more of it. If you want to create a share worthy content then add stats and facts in it. 

Tip: we highly suggest that before you add any stats or facts, make sure to verify them from your competitors or the highest ranked website.

3. Add Infographics and Get Backlinks

Let us say that you are not very creative then there is another way of making your content shareable and getting a backlink and that can be done by making an infographic content. People now want to share blogs and articles that have infographics. It helps people to save time on reading and you will also get a regular reader. 

4. Launch a Niche Relevant Industry Tool

If you have done all the above already and yet you get very few and poor-quality backlinks then we suggest that you develop and launch an industry specific tool that can be used for free. Let us say that you have an IT company, what you can do is upload a grammar checker tool for free or launch a spinning tool. In this way, users will share your website and you will get more backlinks. 

5. Create Listicles 

If you want to reduce bounce rate while getting backlinks at the same time then publish listicles. For those who don’t know what listicles are, we have an example. Your listicle articles can be:

• Top 10 SEO tips
• How to become an SEO expert in 10 steps
• 5 common mistakes to avoid in SEO

Now, you have an idea about what listicles are. This creates more backlinks because it increases the readability and people go through the headings. This also means you should create captivating headings and subheadings.

6. Create Guides

When we say that you should make guiding articles, we mean that you should make in-depth guiding articles. This also mean that you should writing an article that includes the follows:

• Bullets
• Headings
• Subheadings
• Add tips and suggestions
• Add FAQs
• Tell about what experts say

This makes a guiding article very much guidable and improves readability that will result in a healthy backlink when someone shares it.

7. Do Guest Blogging

This is a kind of link building strategy that may cause weariness but know that it is a win-win situation. This is one of the most effective SEO strategies for creating backlinks. There are a few things to keep in mind when you do guest blogging:

• Add a source link other than your website’s link. 
• Your mission should be not adding the website’s link but to provide a valuable link so that people must be provoked to visit your website or share your blog.
• Share your personal experiences.
• Select a topic that is relevant to your industry.
• Pick guest posting websites with care and they should be relevant to your industry.

8. Try Directory Submission

This is another thing that you may want to skip but it is very much effective and creates a very strong digital footprint. But make sure that you upload your company’s information and data only on the relevant directory website.

Tip: you will come across many directory websites that will ask for money/charges but we suggest that you opt for the free ones because mostly, paid ones delay your directory details and sometimes they don’t do it all.

9. Comment on Industry Relevant Posts

If you want to make backlinks then commenting on industry relevant posts will be helpful. This also means answering questions on different sites. If you are a positive and an optimistic keyword warrior then you might build a fan following and this is also another way of coming on good terms with bloggers, publishers and influencers.
