About 10 years ago, it was very easy to get a few backlinks from random sites and get the top page rankings in major search engines. But now in 2020, you have to be genius to select the websites from where you get the quality backlinks so that you can top page rankings in various search engines, especially the higher Google rankings.
Here you can check a few effective ways to get the backlinks for your site so that you can get the higher rankings in Google. After getting the top page rankings, you can easily drive more traffic to your website.
Links from Relevant Forums
Forum posting is an old way to get good rankings. But now, you have to be very careful while getting a link from the random forum. Unlike the past, now forum admin won’t allow you to make a profile and leave a post with a link to your site just like a spammer.
Now, you need to select only the relevant forums for your topic. And from the relevant forum, you need to post in the relevant threads and share your knowledge with others. Try to make your profile looks like a real person and don’t make it with random names and fake pictures.
Once you build a reputation in the forum and make a good connection with moderators and admins of the forums, you can create an informative post in the forum and can provide your link as a resource. In this way forum, moderator or admin will not remove your link.
Guest Post from Google News Approved Site
Guest posting is another way to get high-quality DoFollow links. But in guest posting, people are making links with auto-generated content that is not good. You have to select the relevant and high-quality sites; especially the Google News approved sites.
If you get a chance to buy a guest post from Google News approved site, then make sure that you provide a unique and informative piece of content. Google quality News sites will not allow you to post promotional content so you have to be very careful while writing the article for the backlink.
Make sure that you get a DoFollow link from that site and that link should be permanent.
Link from Relevant Blogs
Apart from Google News Approved site, you should also look for the guest posting from the relevant blogs. For example, if you are selling mobile accessories then make sure to contact different blogs that are providing the latest information about mobiles.
Once you get such a blog with reasonable traffic, then you can write the admin of that blog to give you a chance to write an informative article for them with 1 link for your site from the article body or from the author’s bio.
A link from the relevant blog will give you a chance to get some instant traffic as well because people might be interested in reading more valuable content on the same topic.
Links from EDU Sites
Forum posting or blog commenting are two good ways to get links from the .edu sites. EDU sites are considered as the authority sites by all major search engines, especially Google. It is difficult to get a link from the .edu site but if you get a chance to make a comment on the Edu blog or to make a forum post on the Edu forum then it will be good to place your website’s link.
But keep in mind that you should follow the instructions provided in the “Link from Relevant Forums” section.
Local SEO
If you are selling products, then you should also focus on the local SEO. Local SEO is very important to target a specific area and local keywords are easy to rank for a specific location. With Google maps, you can get extra advantage of the traffic and easy rankings.
