Backlink Quality; How Much are you Getting?

by manchingjp on February 19, 2010

Apologies for being too late with my new update, I have been very busy with my job as a part of an SEO group doing new extensive projects that requires a hell lot of work!

For today, I want to discuss about the quality of links that we are getting and are about to get. Backlink building doesn’t end up in just getting a backlink from the site. We should also look at the quality of the links that we are getting. If you notice, there are websites that rarely updates, and too few backlinks yet they get a good PR and traffic. This is because the quality of the backlinks that they are getting is high.

I will share this lesson that I heard from as SEO webinar that I attended which targeted the quality of links.

Content Inlinks – HIGH quality – Articles/contents that attracts links from other site or referring the article. Anchor or mentions from other articles.

Link Trades – MODERATE – Partnerships, Link Exchanges (blogroll to blogroll)

Paid Links – LOW – Links on the sidebars or blogrolls. This can be high if related to site but can be devalued or penalized if not.

Link Reclamation – HIGH – If link source finds broken links, it re-points to active and valuable pages.

If you have something to add or questions to ask, feel free to put it in the comment section below. Thanks for reading and keep coming back for more :)

Facebook looks even nice now that it’s simple. Well for me, I prefer something like this. Just like twitter, it’s very simple and I can only see words and links.
I think it’ll be much cool if it has a feature like a link shortener (well I can use API’s for that, I know) but in [...]

Commenting is not just leaving a simple statement saying “Hi” or “Nice article, thanks”. To tell you that’s not a comment and it’s not helping at all, you are a spammer (lol). From the word itself “Comment” – A statement that expresses a personal opinion or belief or adds information.
There are lots of ways on [...]
