In my last post I talked about what backlinks are and why you need them, so further to that I’m going to share some methods I use to get backlinks. Firstly my number one method of getting quality backlinks is with a great bit of software called Comment Kahuna. Now with this, you can do a search for blogs linked to your niche keywords. This will generate a list of all blogs you can post to and the really cool part is that it gives you the page rank of the blogs too. One thing to bear in mind though is that you shouldn’t dismiss the idea of commenting on low PR blogs because you don’t know what the rank of that page will be in a year’s time.

Another method I use is forums. Most forums you join let you put a signature in to every post you make so why not use this to link back to your blog or site. It’s free advertising! A lot of forums also have good PR; you can check this with the google toolbar. You can also use social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace to grab a back link.

There are so many ways you can get backlinks, just think of all the sites you visit and you can use them to get a link back to your site. Don’t worry if you don’t see your site getting ranked for a while, it does take time just keep at it, it will happen. As you build your links you’ll notice traffic to your site increasing so make sure you’re providing quality content so people have a reason to return to your site.
