The process of obtaining solid links that will really count for something isn’t something that will happen overnight. It will take time, effort & dedication. But, with most things you’ll get better & better at it as time goes on. For an example slBlogs.org had “0″ back links on the first of Jan ‘08 and after a month we got “303″ back links. It’s pure hard work. More you learn the SEO techniques you will learn some easy tricks which help you to speed up the process.

slBloggers Why We Need Link Building :

• For a higher Page Rank.
• More than page rank, it’s all about traffic flow. More links means more incoming traffic opportunity.

Myth #1 : “You write a perfect article ( may be the best in the world ) and hope others will link to you“. - Well they might but wont be significant unless you do some kind of stimulation.

Myth #2 : ” “You write a perfect article ( may be the best in the world ) and hope Search Engins will bring all the traffic to you” - Same answer they might but wont be significant. You need some kind of stimulation.

This stimulation is build with back links. And we call this process Stealth Link Building.

How Do we Practice Stealth Link Building ?

First lesson is the hard way :

Now as I said this is hard work. First of all we have to know spaming links will only penalize our ranks. More natural the link building is more profitable in the perspective of Google eye. So if its natural that means some considerable time is taken. When I launched slBlogs.org what did I do first ?

1. I created a shortlist of websites within my niche that I would like a link from. Aimed for websites that has same interest with as mine. For example “sri lankan news” or “SEO techniques”. Checked to see which sites already rank well for the terms you want to target & add them to the shortlist. First I made about a 10 Link list.

• Great tool for checking the site rank is the SEO firefox plugin. Use this regularly.

Its pretty obvious that you will be rejected If you directly ask a stranger to link you. So next I commented on the blogs regularly and made friendly with the web masters. Next I requested a link. Most of them were successful. I did not only build few links but also great friends and loyal readers.

Building links is time consuming. Quick links will only give you quick way of PR. But links like this will get you Rank plus some loyal readers. That matters so much. So try to comment when ever you have a chance. But never comment just to take a link. Comment to be productive to that site where they will return the favor.
