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.
