Link Building
HOW TO MAKE LINKS IN BETTER WAY
What is Link Building?
Definition:
Link building is the process of acquiring hyperlinks from other websites to your own. A hyperlink (usually just called a
link) is a way for users to navigate between pages on the internet.
Many SEOs spend the majority of their time trying to do it well. For that reason, if you can master the art of building
high-quality links, it can truly put you ahead of both other SEOs and your competition.
Why it is so important?
In order to understand the importance of link building, it's important to first understand the basics of how a link is
created.
Types of Link Building
Traffic Generating Links are links that do not necessarily help in terms of raising your rankings for a particular keyword
or building up your PageRank.
SERP Elevating Links are the links that are made to boost your search result positioning for particular keywords, the
key is getting dofollow links on relevant pages using your keyword phrase as anchor text.
Reputation Building Links are the links that are build by interlinking social profiles, blogs & other affiliations.
Backlinks for Your Backlinks Each of your backlinks to your websites or social profiles is strengthened by the
incoming links to the page your link is placed upon.

Find High-Quality Links
When it comes to building backlinks, one of two things can happen:
Thing #1: You Build High-Quality Links
Sit back and watch your site rocket to Google’s first page.
Thing #2: You Build Low-Quality Links
Watch Google penalize your site faster than you can say “what happened?!”.
How to Check whether
WHETHER LINKS ARE GOOD OR BAD?
(a) Authority of the Page
It is found that the authority of the page linking to you matters more than any other factor.
You can easily check a proxy indicator of PageRank (“PageRating”) using www.ahrefs.com
(b) Link’s Position on the Page
Is your link embedded in a piece of content?
Or is it buried in a page’s footer?
It turns out that your link’s position on a page is important.
Bottom line! You want your links to appear within the main body of a webpage.
(c) Is the Link Editorially Placed?
Did someone link to you because they thought your site is awesome? If so, that’s an editorial link.
Or did you create a profile on a random site and drop a link? That’s not an editorial link.
(d) Is the Link From a Guest Post?
A few years ago, Google came right out and said:
But what if you publish a mind-blowing guest post on an authoritative, relevant site?
That link CAN help you rank.
Content Marketing
Visual Assets
List Posts
Original Research & Data
In-Depth Ultimate Guides
(a) Visual Assets
What it is?
Visual assets are Images, Diagrams, Infographics, Charts.
Why it Works?
Visuals are super-duper easy to link to. For example, when you publish a chart on your site, you get a link
anytime someone shares that chart on their site. This powerful “share my image and link to me when you do”
relationship simply doesn’t work for text-based content.
(b) List Posts
What it is?
A numbered list of tips, techniques, reasons, myths…or just about anything.
Why it Works?
List posts pack a ton value into digestible, bite-sized chunks and also rank in Google well.
(c) Original Research and Data
What it is?
Content that reveals new data from industry studies, surveys or original research.
Why it Works?
Statistics and data are highly-linkable. When someone cites your data, they link to you. These links add up
QUICKLY.
(d) In-Depth Ultimate Guides
What it is?
A comprehensive resource that covers everything there is to know about a given topic (and then some).
Why it Works?
Ultimate guides pack an insane amount of information in one place. This makes your guide THE go-to
resource for that topic.
Powerful Links With Email Outreach
If you want to build white hat links in 2017 (and beyond), you need to use email outreach.
The question is:
How can you reach out to bloggers and journalists without ending up in their spam folder?
(a) Find “Likely Linkers”
Search for the topic on Google.
Select the best blog link
Grab the URL of the first result and pop it into a link analysis tool (use www.ahrefs.com)
Curate backlinks of that post
(b) Find “Email Addresses”
Now that you’ve found a Likely Linker, it’s time to dig for their email address.
Use Hunter.io
Hunter.io is perfect for reaching out to small sites and one-person blogs.
(c) Send Them a (Personalized) Script
Hi [First Name],
I was looking for content on [Topic] today, when I stumbled on your article: [Article Title].
Good stuff! I especially enjoyed [Something specific from their article].
Also, I just published a new guide on [Your Topic]: [URL].
As someone that writes about [Topic], I thought you’d enjoy it.
My guide may also make a nice addition to your page. Either way, keep up the awesome work with [Website]!
Talk Soon,
[Your Name]
Link Building Strategies
Resource Page Link Building
Broken Link Building
Links With Reverse Image Search
Podcasts Sharing
(a) What are Resource Pages?
What are Resource Pages?
Resource pages are pages that link out to awesome content on a given topic.
Find Resource Pages
“Keyword” + inurl:links
“Keyword” + “helpful resources”
“Keyword” + “useful resources”
“Keyword” + “useful links
(a) What are Resource Pages?
Find “Best Fit” Content
Find the best content you have published over your website and outreach with the following script
Email Script
Hi [Name],
I was Googling around for content about [Topic] this morning, when I came across your excellent resource page:
[URL].
I just wanted to say that your page helped me a ton. I would have never found the [Resource They Link To] without
it.
It’s funny: I recently published a guide on [Topic] last month. It’s [Brief Description].
Here it is in case you’d like to check it out: [URL].
Also, my guide might make a nice addition to your page.
Either way, thanks for putting together your list of resources. And have a great day!
Talk Soon,
[Your Name]
(b) Broken Link Building
 Install Check My Links or LinkMiner
Both of these tools quickly find broken links on any page (from within your Chrome Browser).
 Find Pages With Lots of Outbound Links
 Check For Broken Links
Email The Site Owner About Their Broken Link
Email Script
Hi [Name],
Are you still updating your site?
I was searching for content on [Topic] when I came across your excellent page: [Page Title or URL].
However, I noticed a few links didn’t seem to be working:
[URLs of broken links]
Also, I recently published [Brief Content Pitch]. It may make a good replacement for the [Point Out a Specific
Broken Link].
Either way, I hope this helped you out.
Thanks,
[Your Name]
Get “Bonus” Links With Reverse Image Search
Do you publish visual assets like infographics and charts?
If so, there are probably sites using your images without attribution right now.
Don’t freak out. In fact, you should celebrate. Just like with link reclamation, a friendly email can turn many of
these opportunities into links.
And you can use Google reverse image search to find peeps that are using your images without a link
How to Put Links while posting a Blogpost
 Never give links in "Footer“
 Google always watch the “First Link” in the post. Try to give “Very First Link” of the blogpost to the website
 Give image “alt” attributes & image “caption”.
 Give link to High Domain Authority external website.
 Blogposts that are not linked to main website are useless.
Try to limit the external links to 3 links (1 external website, 1 internal website blog, 1 website
blog/webpage).
 Don’t use “rel=“nofollow”;” for any link. It shows low quality of website.
 No single keyword should point to 2 different webpages.
Now It’s Your Turn
I hope you enjoyed my new-and-improved guide to link building.
What did you think of the guide?
Or maybe you have a question.
Please Ask!
Thanks!
