Getting Backlinks from Quality Sources and Tracking their strength smartly
Based on some tips given by Roger Montti in “Blow Your Mind Link Building Techniques” session at SMX Advanced, let me illustrate a specific link building plan that any site can make use of. Everybody who tends to claim themselves as SEO expert or Webmaster are aware of the most common ways to build links like Guest Blogging, Forums, Article Directories, Social Bookmarking and other Web 2.0 links.
But these are not the only ways to build links for your website; the reason that most people follow these practices is that these are proved to be the easiest and possibly the best ways to build links. There are certain tools that which helps us to keep track of our backlinks i.e. these days most of the blogs/forums/directories are removing backlink sources without giving any prior notice for the authorized writer. So, you are in desperate need of most trusted SEO Software service like Sheer SEO which keeps the track of our backlinks, their strength as well as your on-page score and many more exciting features.
Getting backlinks from .edu, .gov sources is yet another strategy to enhance our SERPs. But it is not that easy to get backlinks from these sources. In order to understand the Search Engine’s activity we are again in the need of SEO Software services which keeps the track of Link Standard that helps us to stay away from Link Farms or Flagged Websites. I’d recommend the free SEO Software for next 60 days is Sheer SEO.
Here is an expanded version of Roger’s tips on how to link with .edu sites to get the competitive edge over your rivals; this strategy may work on either Yahoo or MSN but not on Google at this point of time.
- linkdomain:domain-to-check.com site:.edu “directory”
- linkdomain:domain-to-check.com site:.edu “resource”
- linkdomain:domain-to-check.com site:.edu “links”
- linkdomain:domain-to-check.com site:.edu “bookmarks”
- linkdomain:domain-to-check.com site:.edu “favorite”
This technique may help in finding tons of link targets to pursue, which would all be pretty well known, and you can dig in further to get more specific results… for example, the industry category name can be added for services or products. This can be tried on .ORG sites as well.
Once you compile the list of sites, next step is to figure out the most important ones. Considering the list of pages to link, run a tool to establish the PR of each target domain;
Followed by this, the list has to be sorted based on PR of the domains, in descending order so that you start with most precious highest PR sites…
Considering the priority list, find the admin email ids, or fill up contact forms, as contact by hand is the best way in order to accomplish the task. And also make sure that, the person identifies the critical aspects of linking to your web page. Since these are links of high value, they are worth a lot of efforts. Sheer SEO is one of the best options, if you are looking some highly truest SEO Software services and it is also an online service.
Handcrafting the high value targets, template email can used as an initial starting point, but then you need to start customizing them based on the interesting data that you’ve found about that particular site… after all, nobody likes “automated-looking” spammy e-mails.
Since these links can provide extremely high value, getting just a few of them can have huge impact on SERP rankings of your website. Extreme care must be exercised while sending mails, as letters that are not customized may be flagged as SPAM, and you’d lose a vital chance of getting a powerful back-link, and as you know once your e-mail lands in spam/junk folder in Outlook/Gmail it’d always go to the trash-box every time you send it out thereafter!
Well, isn’t it simple, and fun – so what are you waiting for… start building powerful backlinks to your website today – Roger that!

I agree with you that we now Google has stopped backlinks from edu sites and after panda updated Comment back links are too not counted if a post is responded with more comments like if one post has more then 50 comments so there are extra 50 links for external sites than means Google counts zero value for all outgoing links on that page.
