How to Get Backlinks

If you plan on monetizing your website in any fashion then you need to do some serious backlinking to help get you to the top of Google. Depending on the amount of competition for the particular keyword(s) you are targeting, you will need as few as 20 to possibly thousands of backlinks.

The obvious question then is "How to GET Backlinks?"

Backlinking does not have to be hard, however it can be tedious at times because it can involve manually submitting articles, signing up to many different services, forums, networks like facebook and myspace and posting on other blogs.

When you read a blog you can usually leave a comment at the bottom. In this area you are allowed to leave a link, so you leave your website url and it will count as a backlink.

When you are a member of a forum you can include a signature that appears at the bottom of every post that you make. Your signature can be a link to your websites and you can often leave more than one. If you provide valuable info on your forum posts, people will be more inclined to click on your signature links.

Social bookmarking-This has become quite the rage today and it involves bookmarking your site. This essentially tells other people about your site, and if they like it then they in turn can also bookmark it. Bookmarking is like a popularity contest and the more people who are bookmarking your sites, the more links you are getting and also the more traffic you get because you will get better exposure from all the bookmarking.

Backlinking Services- are another very valuable service in your aresenal of backlinks. These services work by sending out posts that you make to thousands of directories creating thousands of one way back links to your website. These services are well worth the money!
