You know how important backlinks are to your site, right?
But unless you are an expert at creating content SO awesome that everyone wants to link to it on their own, how do you actually get backlinks?
Here is how most people do it (though I am about to describe an easier way later in this post):
- Write articles and submit them to article directories (Cons: Needs approval from the administrators/editors, and you cannot usually post PLR articles)
- Submit your sites to directories (Cons: Chances of getting rejected, and long waiting times for approval)
- Post in various forums, with links to your sites in your sig or profile (Cons: You can’t look like you are marketing or spamming the forums. You need to actually come up with something valuable to say or ask if you want to get your posts past the moderators.)
- Create a network of sites with links to each of the sites you own (Cons: Google will detect what you are doing)
- Participate in a three-way or one-way link network (Cons: Sooner or later Google will detect what you are up to, and penalize all the sites in the network, including yours.)
- Exchange links with other sites (reciprocal linking) (Cons: Not all webmasters are willing to link back. Most don’t even respond to link exchange requests.)
- Comment on other people’s blogs (Cons: It takes a bit of skill to get your comments past the moderator/blog owner’s ego and you need to think of something original, valuable, and non-spammy to say each time you want to post a comment.)
- And of course, the classic one – create content that is so sexy, everyone wants to link to it (Cons: Admit it, if you could do it, you wouldn’t be reading this!
) - Create linkbaits (Cons: See above)
You can either do the above steps yourself, or you can outsource them. And each of the steps mentioned comes with a price – money or work. That’s OK though, since nothing worth getting is free or easy.
Or is it?
And what about the cons associated with each of them anyway? In most cases, you will notice that the biggest hurdle is getting your post/article/comment past someone who is just itching to zap it.
So is there an easier way?
Yes there is, fortunately.

Sounds good to me and I got the 250 links pack. When do you think I can start getting results?
Just a thought…maybe you should sell the list of 250 social sites for DIYers, people will buy it, start to use it, never finish it, and end up paying you to do it anyway.
Thanks for your order. The exact results and timings will vary according to niche and competition. But there is no doubt that your rankings will improve. How much, and by when, is difficult to say.
Thanks, Brenda. I will think about it. In the meantime, I am getting a few orders, so it’s time to get busy!
Thanks, good article! Maybe someone needs backlinkchecker? Try http://www.BackLinkStat.com.
@Andy,
That was disapointing. The BackLinkStats site is now suspended
I realize this is an old post, but it was insightful nonetheless. trouble is when i comment on your blog, i always forget to sign into wordpress first, and if i try to choose wordpress as my ‘identity’ i lose all of it, before a popup comes up to remind me :0 Hence, i’m usually on name/url. (which is fine but doesnt link back to my blog. sniff)

Great package and certainly enough to anyone to really get going. The question I have for you is can this not also be attempted using an article submitter and sending to hundreds of article directories? As long as the PLR are re-written, won’t that work also? Let me know so I can make a decision on purchasing? Thanks
Hi Ron,
Article submissions can certainly work too, but remember that the approval rate may or may not be 100% depending on how unique/high quality each submission is.
On the other hand, it’s virtually guaranteed that you will get a link back from each of the sites in this list.
This is not to say that you don’t need article submissions. For a healthy backlink profile, your site should have links from all types of sites, including article directories, and not just rely on one or two methods of link building. The more varied your link profile, the better it is for you in the long run.
Hope that helps.

PS: Regarding the packages: I no longer offer packages 2 and 4 listed on that page, because some of the sites in my list don’t offer blog capability any more. I will update the page to reflect that shortly. Thanks.
Rohit,
Thanks for your advices. I really have a problem with traffic.
Tess,
There are really two ways to get more traffic:
1. Publish as much content as you can on keywords that a lot of people search on and try to get a good rank in the search engines for those keywords. The more pages of content you have for such keywords (keyword focused content pages), the more traffic you will get, period.
2. Try to build as many backlinks as possible for those keyword focused content pages.
More keyword focused content and more backlinks are the only ways to get more traffic. Apart from paid traffic, of course, which is a whole another discussion.
I also suggest you read this free ebook: http://www.plr-packs.com/downloads/AffMasters.pdf and follow the instructions. It’s a very good step by step guide to getting free traffic from the search engines.
Great thing. I was looking for places to advertise my blog
Hi, i must say fantastic site you have, i stumbled across it in Bing. Does you get much traffic?
Sweet Tutorial – impressive job. I gatheredsome new things for traffic generation. Thanks!
The difficulty with Private label rights items is that buyers do not work with it effectively. These people should either apply it to generate suggestions for subjects to write about or even entirely re-write it or spin and rewrite it and then set their own identify into it.
Thanks Sinha for the super awesome post. It’s a nice tutorial which can be used for the generation of traffic.
