Link Building Through Automation
Link building results in web traffic. It is that simple. Every web master who has ever tried to generate a living from their web sites has learned soon enough that finding traffic is not easy, and that one of the best ways to do it is to get their web sites to rank near the top of the search engines for the keywords that best represent their sites.
Sites that rank well in the search engines tend to be those which are linked to from other sites from all over the web. So how do you go about getting the necessary backlinks?
The optimal way is to create top-notch content for your web site and encourage people to link to that content. But that poses something of a catch-22 type situation, because it is hard to convince people to backlink to you if you cannot first get them to your site to check out that content. So, a great deal of your initial backlink generation depends upon do-it-yourself operations. You compose articles and place backlinks into the resource area at the bottom of the article, and then you submit those articles to article directories in the hope that other people download them and add them to their site.
This approach does work as a link building strategy, but it can be slow and tedious. A better way to do this is to employ a service which takes your articles and automatically adds them to the web sites of people who have agreed to place articles from the service onto their web site. I have discussed this kind of automated link building service in some depth at http://www.neurolinkerreview.com/
Another strategy to secure backlinks is to post comments to other people’s sites and use a backlink as part of your signature. This is yet another very time consuming method, but it can work well. Unfortunately it is not possible to automate this process in any way because robots cannot understand the blog posts to which they are responding, and they cannot generate useful responses.
But there is an alternative to this. Rather than posting comments, a robot could certainly spin a blog post and distribute it to hundreds of blogs in a blogging network. This is much the same as article distribution, except that the posts end up on blogs, and people can respond to them. This is another of the automated ways for generating links discussed in my review.
