Link Building Expert Article - Backlink Building Tips

I just wrote an article titled "Link Building Tips for Obtaining Relevant Backlinks" in order to give a quick overall of a typical strategic and planned-out link building campaign. I cover various link building issues from what types of links you need, why you need them and some ways to obtain them. The main point of this article was to create a link titled "link building expert" that could possibly have the chance to be mass reproduced. (hence the title of this post and the anchor text to the article; relevance)

Here's a snippet of my link building article.
...

- Contact other webmasters and let them know about your site. These webmasters should be websites in your industry with a lot of visitors
- Notify forums. Every industry has forums. Letting visitors that participate in these forums know about your site can generate buzz.
- Find blogs in your industry with huge RSS subscribers. Ask them to review your site. Normally all their visitors/commentators will review your site as well.
- Convert all your text content to podcast using text to voice software (Or you can record someone reading it). Then submit your podcast to podcast directories.

I'm not a Web Designer; I'm a SEO: Keyword Architecture

I'm an SEO, but I recently got offered a job to rebuild a site for my client Miller's Carpet Care. I'm not a designer, nor do I fully understand HTML & CSS. But Bill was my SEO client and everyone knows content is key to great search engine rankings.

My job is to place Miller's Carpet Care on the top of Google for various keyword queries, such as "carpet care riverside". "san diego carpet care", "carpet cleaning san bernardino". This was my chance to build a very SEO friendly website.

I made sure I mentioned all the words through out the Title, Tags, Description & Content. Then I made sure every page had links pointing back to the home page with the keywords in the anchor text. Then I gave all the other pages some love by getting every other page to link to them with that page's keywords in those links.

By making sure your keywords are throughout the page, each page is getting a link with the keywords back to them & no broken links are in your domain, your site is ready for offpage optimization.

Just doing this got Miller's Website to the top 30 of anything relating to carpet in southern california.
