[Lucky7CompSolutions]

Can any suggest a couple of places to get some good backlinks like directories, forums etc

My competition has a few good ones but they have built the website are are getting some good links.

As the last poster mentioned, you will want to get your social profiles configured and linking to your site. Especially important are facebook, twitter,G+ and setting up a linkedin profile and business page.

After that, you will want to be listed on some high quality directories.... for your business I would suggest you start with FreeIndex.co.uk

At all costs avoid any mass directory submission systems or poor quality directories.

I have set up Facebook and its linked to twitter also posting on local buy and sell pages on Facebook, have joined free index as a premium member but not noticing the different and the back links seem to be a no follow as google is showing only a few hits.

You might want to look at your Freeindex and Twitter feed to your website, not displaying correctly. Also as a general rule on page seo needs to be first, before you start the off page work

[tonitarzan]

Thanx for the list of directories, although i still dont understand what the are lol, time to go some research on google again

 

[helmuc]

Start with yell. ... Now every uk business can have a free link to their website.

.. the most valuable backlinks are the ones that come from an actual article that talks about the market/industry that is closely related to yours.

Helmuts

p.s. the list above is a copy/paste product... A poster even didn't see that warrior forum was mentioned twice :/

[helmuc]

Oh yes, about forums...

Choose the ones from your industry, skip unrelated ones.. I'm sure that you have better ways how to invest your time.

I could explain whats going on but I won't in a open forum,I will say you have several keyword phrases,start using them as anchortext.I haven't looked at your site but I have looked at your niche.
Any seo will have a wry smile on their face for one of your keywords.

Here are 4 simple tips
1. Guest Posts : If you are a good writer, which you must be if you are blogging, then back linking becomes easy. All you need is a flair to write and a willingness to do it.It is as simple as that.

2. Submit Articles : Another option is to go the sites that allow you to post a blog with a backlink. This has the stamp of authority and you can be assured that the backlink is welcome.

3. Pay for Backlinks : Everyone is not happy paying for the backlinks but it is one of the most assured ways to get.

4.Social Bookmarking Bites : Bookmarking your sites may not be very popular but it sure does pay.

Hope this will help you a lot.

Guest posts only on good high trust blogs, why would a blog owner, with a higher ranked website than yours, let you put a blog post with a link, that could affect his ranking ? - Don't think so !
Have article sites in "general" been devalued - YES
Paid links ! against Google T&C ever heard of Interflora ?
Social bookmarking sites - only the best ones, the rest have thousands and thousands of spammers links !


In general there are better ways to do this but remember QUALITY :|

 

[Twisters]

You can try guest blogging and unique article submission. Because Google spiders are always crawling fresh content, so there is a huge chance to get backlinks.

 

[billtheinvoice]

I think the first place you need a backlink is www.dmoz.org.

Being on this directory is vital.

Agree with this. Also, if you don't have time for blogging - which is essential these days (updated, fresh, relevant, unique content that Google wants to see) then commission in articles - iwriter is good. I've just commissioned 6 articles for a big computer reseller who is an SEO client - they won't appear on the main site menu but are in the site map; you can use similar to post generic articles on your blog.

You should learn how to use Google search operators so you can approach websites:

Eg: link resources help links.html site:.co.uk intitle:"weight loss"

The best thing to do is find forums in your own niche and participate in them, but only those that allow signatures. You only need post once or twice a day, but the more you do, the more people see your signature.

 

[More4mums]

I think you need to focus on Local SEO as you are targetting your local market not the UK.

That's great...Really effective..have tried on my website..& get good ranking on google...Can I make signature in all these forums because I've submitted our website in profile but can't post signature yet on keywords..because some webmaster says don't put signature in forums because it'll not beneficial for your website..Is it right guys??

Here's my personal list of top Web 2.0 sites you can sign up to and get yourself some excellent quality backlinks

PR 9 1. wordpress.com {spam list snipped}

If you think you can sign up at sites like this and get 'excellent quality backlinks' based on already existing links/pagerank on the root domain then you are horribly mistaken.

Do you really think Google is going to let you create an account on Wordpress.com and then trust it as a 'page rank 9 link'?

You might get away with parasitic hosted pages on really obscure sites... you're not going to have any joy trying it with Wordpress (in the top 30 sites in the world...)

 

[eventdomain]

Directory:
add2dir.info, alistdirectory.com, backupreview.info/directory/
crazyleafdesign.com/webdirectory, web-hosting-top.com, 3d2f.com, add-page.com/, alistsites.com, allthewebsites.org/, arakne-links.com/, directoryvault.com, directoriespage.com

Come-on, you can do better than those. The only one I've heard of from that list is directoryvault - the rest.... worthless, spammers haven

Guest posts only on good high trust blogs, why would a blog owner, with a higher ranked website than yours, let you put a blog post with a link, that could affect his ranking ? - Don't think so !

Exactly right - the world is about status, and who is top dog. The dogs are the pack leaders, they control who gets in and who doesn't.

The struggling biz owners don't want to hear this, as they can't afford to advertise and is the main reason why they chase worthless links on unheard of freebie sites.

The good sites have always been off-limits to the brethren spammer. Why they choose to believe otherwise - its just not normal.
