Here’s some of the Untapped Backlink Sources that you can use!
I am sure you’ve already read just about enough information on traditional link building strategies, like guest posting, for one lifetime. Well today I’m going to shake things up. I’m going to share my secret stash of untapped link building strategies, tactics and sources with you.
What Are Backlinks?
Backlinks (also known as “inbound links”, “incoming links” or “one way links”) are links from one website to a page on another website. Google and other major search engines consider backlinks “votes” for a specific page. Pages with a high number of backlinks tend to have high organic search engine rankings.
So, here’s the Untapped Backlink Sources;
Audio Sharing Sites
Create a piece of audio (you can use Vocaroo to record within your browser and export as an .mp3 file. You can create accounts at the following authoritative audio sharing sites;
- Reverbnation.com (PR6)
- BandCamp.com (PR7)
- YourListen.com (PR5)
Upload your audio and add a link to your site on your profile page.
Donate To Charity
Search for sites that accept donations using these search strings; “donate to us”,”contributors page” or allintitle: “contributors”, “sponsors page” or allintitle: “sponsors”.
Check to see if contributors get dofollow links in exchange for donating. Also poke around the site to make sure it looks legit. Donate and get your links.
Blogger Reviews
Decide what you plan on giving away to review. It can be a software, an information product, physical product, or service. Anything of value that bloggers in your niche would want to try and write about it fair game.
Find bloggers in your niche searching for things like “best (niche) blogs 2018” or using the blog directory. Reach out to them with this email script.
Hey (site owner name),
I was searching for some homepage soap recipes today when I came across (site name).
Awesome stuff!
Actually, I just launched a guide that teaches people how to make luxury soaps at home. I usually charge $X, but I’d be more than happy to send it over to you on the house. All I’d ask is that you’d consider mentioning it on your blog or writing a review.
Let me know how that sounds.
Cheers,
Your name
