Link development is one of many important parts to increase blog visibility in internet world. Link development is term for our way to get real quality back link for site. The quality back link will boost our blog rank as well as get quality traffic in internet. In my opinion, the real quality back link is one way link that comes from high rank site in our blog related niche. High rank is term for high quality and traffic (popular) site. But, it is really difficult to have this real quality back link if our blog is still new with no so many quality contents yet. It is even almost impossible that there are some quality site wants to provide the real quality back-link for your new blog except if you are a very famous person or pay for it. Here i share how new blog can build their link:

Exchange Link

Okay, as new blogger we do not need to be afraid. We still can boost our new blog rank with many not so ideal ways. Our new blog still can get some rank boost by do link exchange with another blog in our blog related niche. Yes, the link exchange is not as ideal as one way back link but it is still worthy to increase our blog rank. I suggest that we do link exchange base on quality over then quantity. Base on quality mean that we focus do link exchange with good rank site in our blog niche.

I really do not suggest to link exchange with high rank unrelated niche site even if it still may help increase our blog rank. It is because too much unrelated niche outbound link will damage our blog rank in long term. So, in my opinion, it is worthy to focus do exchange link in our blog niche even the site not so high rank than try to do exchange link with high rank site which not in our blog niche. Please note that we must not do too many link exchanges in first time. It is to keep outbound link from our blog low. I suggest that we keep the outbound link as low as possible before our blog have many good quality contents.

Do Follow Forum Signature

We also can increase our new blog rank by use signature in do follow high rank forums. Our blog always can get some quality back link from it beside also get the significant traffic. We also can put a link to our blog post in forum comment form as long as the blog post related with the discussion. Please note that it is better if the forums have related niche with our blog. I, my self, already active in several quality forums for a long time and build some quality back link and traffic for my blog. I suggest you to start from some local forum and then you also can try global forum such as digital point or sitepoint forum.

I surely do not only gain back link and traffic from forums, but I also learn many thing that I can use to improve my blogging. So, it always worthy allocate our time to be active member in some quality do-follow forums, and it is still worthy even in no-follow forum as long as the forum have the quality content for your blog niche. Yeah – we still can get benefit from it with all of useful knowledge and quality traffic. I, my self, get many ideas from no-follow forums discussion for my blog post. So, even that the no-follow forum do not increase blog rank it is still worthy for traffic and post idea.

Do Follow Blog Commenting

We can also gain blog rank and traffic by put quality comment in do-follow high rank blog/site. This way is almost as same as do-follow forums which I already explain above. And as in do-follow forums, the optimum result always comes from do-follow blog in our blog niche. Please not that we must not spam the do-follow blog. We must always give the quality comment on it. It is because high rank do-follow blog usually moderate the comment. The do-follow blog admin only accept related and quality comment, other than it will be rejected immediately. Therefore, do not waste our time to spam on high rank do-follow blog.

Blog Directories Submitting

Our blog rank also can increase by submit our blog to do-follow quality blog directories. Please be careful to choose the directories. Always submit your blog to quality blog directories because there are so many spam directories out there. Spam directories will harm your blog rank for sure, and it can even put your blog in sand box of search engine. So, you should always do your research carefully before submit your blog in link directories.  And do not forget to always ensure that the link directories really give the back link for your blog. You can check the back link in Yahoo site explorer or Google webmaster. I would suggest BlogEngage.com as your starting point.

Guest Posting

There are many great high rank blog out there that accept guest posting – like this blog. Guest posting usually allows us to put some link in our guest posting post. It is a really a worthy back link to our new blog. Of course, it is needed a great killing article to be accepted in high rank guest post blog – especially if we are just unknown new blogger. Guest posting will also drive significant quality traffic to our blog for sure. In my opinion, Guest posting is the best way to gain great result for our blog link development if compare with others four ways that I already mention before. We can enlarge benefit from guest posting by do guest posting in various blog in our niche. It will give a good reputation around our niche beside the quality back link and traffic.

Conclusion

Link development is important thing that we must build to increase our new blog visibility in internet crowd. Success Link development will surely drive ton of traffic to our blog from search engine. It is because link development improves our blog rank in search engine eyes.

There are many ways to do link development – I share five of it in this article. We can do the entire link development tips in simultaneously or we can choose to do some base on our needs and our ability. In my opinion, our blog niche may affect which link development tip work great for our blog. We can do trial and error if we do not know which tips the best for our blog.

    Great post Dana,

    From everything I have read researched, you are correct. Link Exchanged if done should be limited and they should be done naturally. For me, I really do not do a link exchange, if some asked me for a logo or wants me to put a logo on my site I will do but only, if they are a blog that I respect or is one that is in the same niche, I will add them if they add one for. In some cases I will add a blog logo, such as Blazing Minds, if I find it a valuable resource and want to share it with others.

    Hi Dana I think I have read first guest post from you, it is not bad idea that you start guest posting.

    I like to read article on building link. My main link building strategy is research on it, first I analyze the backlinks of my competitors and there after I start my link development strategy. My main goal is to get quality relevant link, only by getting few such type of link we can achieve our goal.

    Awesome article Dana ;) ) But You must consider about blog directory. Blog Directory is good for backlink but not for the quality.

    Something else to think about, at least initially if you don’t want to do it for long, is adding a few links to your blogroll. Sometimes people find out they’re in your blogroll and will visit your blog to comment, adn that can also help get the ball rolling.

    thats exactly what I do, although when it comes to commenting, I don’t just focus on dofollow blogs.

  11. Free directory submissions take 3-6 months to get a listing. I find link exchange unsavory. In my opinion and experience, blogwalking is the way to go. Do-follow is just the icing on the cake. Ordinary readers of every niche except technology/internet/blogging do not know anything about Google PR or Alexa Traffic Rank or No-Follow.
