Backlinks are important for any website. Everyone who is involved in an online business needs backlinks. Even more important, however, is being able to get contextual backlinks. These links are highly valued for their keyword phrases that are rich in content. Search engines rank your web page or blog based on these keywords, content, and how often users visit. So getting high PR and contextual backlinks is what you need to make your website popular and known by people. Blogging and article marketing are some of the common ways to get contextual backlinks.
The advantage of blogging is that you are free to post your backlinks for people to see without having to ask permission or be blocked as a spammer. Similarly, there are several websites that offer people the ability to upload their articles for free. In such cases, at the end of each article, you can post your backlink so that more people can visit your website creating useful and beneficial traffic for your website.
However, while uploading articles or writing blogs on these websites, you need to make sure that whatever you write has quality content that can impress people. Only then will they be interested in visiting your website again. Poor content articles won’t get you very far despite all your efforts. Try to write longer articles so that you can contain more keywords and are more likely to be found in the search results produced by search engines. Writing unique content articles is even better.
Once this is done, you need to proceed with article marketing. The process is similar to publishing articles or blogs. However, public article directories are subject to moderation and therefore require finer and better quality articles.
When registering or creating an account to post articles/blogs on free websites, you should try to write down the PR of each of these websites. High PR websites are rated more for posting contextual backlinks as people visit them more often. Contextual backlinks are placed at the top of an article on a page and are therefore considered more powerful than regular backlinks at the bottom of an article. Having quality blogs helps you build a better network with other high PR blogs and contextual links are more valued. Doing too many blogs on newer networks that have lower PRs will not be very beneficial.
Many SEO companies perform high PR and contextual backlinks. Building backlinks is a tedious and time consuming task. SEO companies offer these services in various packages. They make use of professionals so you can be assured of greater success. You can also make use of websites where you have to pay to upload your articles and post contextual backlinks. These require an initial investment, and unless you’re sure they’ll work or have the means, it’s best to start with the websites that offer them for free.
