You Say I Can Link Directly To Affiliate Sites On EzineArticles.com So How Do I Do It?

The resolution to this issue is using a little known server trick called domain forwarding. You may have heard of this and just never known what it was or what it did. There are many different things you can do with a domain name. You can point it to name servers for hosting it yourself, you can park it and try to collect some revenue from ads or in this case you can forward your name to the affiliate link you are trying to promote. This action can be done by going into your registrar and setting up a domain forward. Most registrars will also allow you to mask the domain too.

This allows you to forward something like www.buycoolstuff.com to www.coolstuffsite.com/members/?aff_id=953 and when a visitor goes to your link they see the content delivered from the long address, but they will only see your short address in the address bar of their browser.

Why Does Linking To Affiliate Pages Directly Help?

This is a great way for affiliate marketers to send the readers of their content directly to the page that is going to pay them. However, depending on your own marketing plan it may be more important to build up your own web site’s popularity in the search engines. This is totally up to you, but either way now you know to add your affiliate link to ezinearticles.com without getting your article thrown in the trash. Hopefully this concept helps you grow your business and put some extra profit in your pocket!

Authority sites simply pass on more link juice than sites that have less of a presence on the internet.  You may be able to grab links on sites like facebook and twitter pretty easily and yes these are considered to be authority sites.  However, how can you get links on education site or government sites?  Well, most of us really don’t know.  Getting quality back links on sites like these can really make a big impact on your search engine standings, because these sites outbound links are seen as “official” and are respected by the search engines algorithm.  So you need to be getting these links if you want to take your search engine optimization skill set to the next level.

The information I am sharing below comes from a post on a forum, so before we get to the meat of this post, let me give credit where credit is due.

There are other ways to get these authority site links pointing to your webpage, you may want to take a look at the Webmaster Business Plan section on link building for more info on this topic or even visit good old View SEO.  So enough fluff, lets get to these killer internet marketing techniques!

How To Get Links On Authority Sites

This is my small gift to the SEO Chat community from whom i learn a lot. I wrote this article in December of 2009 and hope that it hasn’t become outdated since search industry is changing every second. I like teaching (although it should not be confused with preaching) and sharing knowledge. I used to teach C, C++ (programming language) to 1st year engineering students (as a tutor and not in the college) some 6 years back when i myself was a student and since then have got this bug  Consequently i understand different type of loops (for, while and do while loop), functions, parameters, conditional statements and above all program logic. I am sharing this info with you to let you know that it helps me a lot in understanding the code and in dealing with web developers. And i think it will equally help you if you could spend sometime in learning a programing language and its syntax esp. some server side language like PHP. Anyways back to the subject of authority sites.

As a seo we heard of authority sites a lot. Get back links from authority sites to boost rankings. But what are authority sites. How to identify them? Is there a way to find out what is authority and what is not? The answer is yes. There is a way to find out (although not a guaranteed way). Authority sites are those websites which have got back links from large number of different domains and majority of these domains are based on same/similar topic as the linked to domain. For e.g. a website on ‘Car Insurance’ can be considered as an authority on ‘Car insurance’ if it has got backlinks from large number of different domains and majority of these domains are based on car insurance or other insurance topics. Now the question that comes up is, how to identify authority sites. Do they scream i am authority, got a label of authority or is there some other identification mark.

Following are some ways to perceive the authority of a website

1. Authority sites have generally very high ranking on Google for your industry or primary keywords.

2. Websites which authority sites frequently link out to, can also be considered authoritative.

3. Websites which are talked about a lot in your industry are generally authoritative. You can find such sites through industry blogs, industry magazines and industry news publishing sites.

4. Websites with heavy user engagement (like lot of comments, reviews, ratings, page views, heavy users’ activity or large membership base) in your industry can also be considered to be authoritative.

5. Authority sites generally have very high Page Rank (PR >=6).

6. Authority sites generally have very strong back link profile which you can determine through tools like linkdiagnosis.com

7. Authority sites generally have high domain moz rank (>=6) which you can determine through tools like linkscape.

8. Authority sites have back links from large number of root domains which can again be determined through tools like linkscape

Following sites are generally perceived to be authoritative: Elementay & Seconday Schools Sites , Community Colleges sites, Technical & Vocational Schools, educational institutions which provide higher education, government department sites, research councils sites, public library sites, chamber of commerce sites, non-profit organizations sites etc.

3 Golden Rules to get back links from authority sites

1. Establish yourself as an authority- Do it before you ask for a link. Do you really deserve a link from an authority site? If deep down inside you know, the answer is ‘NO’, then most probably you won’t be getting it either. Speak at major industry conferences and write in major industry journals to establish your authority and become known/popular among your potential linking partners.

2. Socialize & Build Personal Relationship- Do it with key persons of the target authority sites for long term link building benefits. Organize/participate in Industry conferences, seminars, exhibitions, workshops and meetups to socialize offline. Remember SEO is just another form of marketing. The more you will market yourself, the better. Social media sites (like blogs, forums, community groups, social networking sites ) are excellent way of socializing online. While socializing online, don’t ignore the viral connectors (like top diggers, top stumblers or people with large fan/subscriptions/members base). These guys can instantly make your contents viral.

3. Determine content needs- Determine content needs of your potential linking sites, develop killer contents and tools to satisfy those needs and then make your potential linking partners aware of them.

Biggest SEO mistake in link acquisition from authority sites

It is to ask for a back link without following the aforesaid link acquisition rules. If you don’t trust me, then just go ahead and try to get a back link from authority site. Your link request will either get deleted or ignored.

Don’t worry it is fairly simple to get a big result from blog commenting, you just have to know what you are doing and you can really get some traffic and results in the search engines in no time flat.  So let’s get to it…

So What Is Blog Commenting?

Well, simply put blog commenting is the process of joining the conversation on blogs, instead of using email or popular social networks.  The main feature that makes a web site become a blog, is the ability of visitors to add there own comments, thoughts or questions to the site.  You may have seen a long string of comments at the bottom of a post on a web site before and this is the comments section. Anybody can submit comments on blog post, however in most cases only the best will actually be published live on the site.  Depending on the blog owner, your comments may be automatically posted or they may go to the admin for review first.

Why Do I Want To Comment On Blogs?

Commenting on blogs is a great way to get known as an expert on any topic, to get more exposure to your site and to build your brand.  You can comment on specific blogs to grow you brand and also get free back links pointing to your product site, affiliate program or personal web site.  You will see many Internet marketers using this as a fast and free way to get more back links and get more traffic to the sites of their choosing.  The reason you see so many people suggesting this as a link building technique is simple, it works.  There are very few ways to get so many links put on web sites that have a good PR rating for free.  Most sites charge to have a link added to their blog roll.  However, having a good link in a comment section of a blog can drive some quality direct traffic and also give you valid back link for Google to pick up on as well.

So How do I Find Good Blogs To Comment On?

You can find blogs by using Google’s blog search.  This is probably the simplest way to find blogs that you can comment on.  However, there are a couple more factors that will prove to be important, besides the topic and content theme of the blog you comment on.  One thing that will be very important if you are wanting to get a high quality back link, is the Page Rank of the blog  you will be commenting on.  You can install the Google toolbar on Fire Fox or on Internet Explorer to see what the blogs PR is quickly and easily.  Now finally, you want to check and see if the links in the blog comments are “do-follow” or “no-follow” links.  You can find a few tools that will help you with this or in Fire Fox you can simply right click on the link and choose properties to check it.

There are also a couple of applications out there that seem to work well for this, if you want to know more about them, just contact me and I would be glad to share.

What Do Do When Blog Commenting

1. Post On Recent Posts – Being the first or one of the first to comment on a new post can really get you more attention than being the one who posted the 25th comment on a post.
2. Write Something Useful – Nobody cares about the guy who say “great post” or “thanks for sharing”  these are the comments you can buy for penny from India and these are not what get attention in readers eyes or from the site owners.
3. Speak To The Blog Owners and Readers – These are your target market, when it comes to commenting.  So don’t just speak out into thin air, talk to the folks who will be reading your comment.
4. Add Value – This should be the main concern when writing a blog comment.  If you are not adding value to the conversation or giving something of interest that is on topic, do not expect your blog comment to get published by the blog owner.
5. Get Attention! – Yes, just like any good writing, you need to grab the readers attention and if you do this, you blog commenting campaign will prove to be very successful!

What Not To Do When Blog Commenting

1. Drop links – Putting links in the comment itself is simply not proper commenting etiquette, you link should be listed as your web site and will link to the name you leave on the comment.
2. Make Spelling Mistakes – Spelling errors may seem to be a very minor issue to you, but to some people reading your comment this may be the difference between a click through and scrolling on to the next comment.  Your writing should represent you, so it should concise and spelled correctly.
3. Talk Down About Post – If your not going to make a positive comment, don’t waste your time. If you are talking down about the web site, web site owner or the post itself, your post will never get published in the first place, so move on.
4. Spam A Blog – One comment at a time is plenty.  If you put a comment on ten different posts, this not only looks suspicious but is!  So one at a time, if you like the blog and want to put more than one comment, bookmark it and come back later.
5. Long Comments – You may need to write more than one sentence to get your point across, but understand that usually only the first few lines of a comment will show by default, so get the goods out first, if you have to make it a long one.

I hope you enjoyed this article and if you want to get a blog comment on a PR2 webmaster site, comment below or you can go to the homepage of the site and post a comment there. If you follow my rules above, I promise to publish you!

How Many Back Links Does Your Website Have?

If you are like most people you probably have 5-20 back links built up by posting to forums or maybe a blog here and there.  However to really get ranked in google for a search term that you want to be ranked for, one that really pulls in the traffic, most sites are boasting over a thousand back links. It is a commonly accepted fact that the amount of back links to your website, including the correct anchor text is one of the most definitive techniques to achieve the first page of google, for that term.

So How Do I Build Up More Back Links?

Building back links is not a quick process and actually google likes to see a constant stream of new ones pointing to your site, this assures the search engine that not only is the link text accurate, but more and more people agree that this site is worth seeing.  So for many webmasters it seems like a constant uphill battle to keep bringing in new back links.   Some actually resort to black hat methods like paying for back links or even using sneaky software to spam forums or blog comment sections.  We here at Webmaster Business Plan do not suggest you use either method above.

The correct way to build back links is to either contact many webmasters and ask to trade links, get active on forums and add your link to your signature or even join many social networks that allow you to post your web address.

The problem with all these methods is that they are very time consuming and in some cases produce very little results.

What Is A Better Way To Build Back Links?

I know that there are many more methods than discussed above to build back links to your website.  But, simply put all of these methods are just as slow and very repetitive to complete if this is being done by one person and not a team of seo experts.   What I propose is that you use a “system” to do the work for you, instead of you manually working day in and day out just to “keep up” with the competition.

Here is the system that I have used myself to drive more than one site to the #1 spot on google and it is absolutely free to use!  I don’t know what to say besides, it is free, it works and it is worth its weight in gold!
