How to build quality backlink?

Quality backlinks have become increasingly important to businesses and website owners in recent times.

Following is my advice for getting quality backlinks:

Guest posting - This is one of the very best ways to build up high quality, genuine backlinks that Google will not penalise and that will generate real natural traffic. Guest posting also gives you position as an authority in your area of expertise and creates mutual backlinks which are beneficial to both website owners. Start building a network so you can do some guest blogging on leading websites and return the favour.

Commenting on blogs - This methods works but must be done carefully. Spam comments on other blogs will not work. They will make you look cheap, unprofessional and certainly won't increase your following. However, if you are following genuine blogs in the same field as your own, and take part in real discussion, there is no harm in it.

Quality content - Writing high quality content is the most important aspect of truly successful back link creation. If your article has not been written well, and presented perfectly, it will not attract the readers you are looking for. Articles spun from information that is already online will not give you the results you seek. Instead, develop and research your subject carefully, and write an article that brings some new information or a new perspective to the table.

Contextual citation websites - This is where you use trustworthy sources to back up your information. Adding citation links flags it up to the search spiders and Google will recognise your work as a quality article. Without citation links, it really is just plain, unverifiable text. One excellent source of citations is Wikipedia. You could also look at other leading websites, PR sites and blogs and link back to them. This will all help to add authenticity, credence and strength to the work you publish online.

Social bookmarking sites - it is worth submitting your blog to be listed in a social bookmarking site. Your website will start to build quality backlinks and you will attract new readers to your blog. This is also an excellent way to have your article indexed by the search engines within 24 hours.

Here are some suggested social bookmarking sites - Digg, Reddit, Stumbleupon, Delicious

Social Media to spread the word - use Twitter, Facebook and other social media platforms to spread the word about your content and share links directly to it. This works. If you post regularly and keep the quality at a high level, you will develop a solid following over time.
