Hello guys,

I have created my website and now I started to post on pinterest and adding my site between my posts. I have around 15 pins at the moment and I hope that I get some more during the next week by repining and liking some other posts.

My next strategy which I will try out is guest posting. Basically I want to look at websites from small website owners and find some links which are broken, write the post and contact the blogger, to get this link.

What do you think about this strategies? What`s your honest opinion?
 
Go ahead and set up profiles for your site on all of the big social networks to help create a brand footprint for users and for the search engines. Those are quality links that everyone else has that you'll need in order to "match and exceed".

Broken link building sounds good. I've never gone through the effort myself. I'd do that along with other outreach for guest posts in the mean time. Show them the post where you can fix their link AND mention you'd like to offer them a guest post at the same time. Two birds and one stone.

Try to get links that actually can bring you traffic. This is the easiest way to make sure you're not wasting your time. They will be valuable links SEO wise if you do this. Be careful with your anchors.

Consider forums. Consider setting up Alerts to drop blog comments on high quality and related blog posts around the net.

There are lots of ways to get links, but they won't all be good links. The best thing I think you could do is produce the best content possible in the niche and promote it everywhere you can. If it's the best in the niche and the best it can possibly be, it'll fetch some nice links and hopefully convert some buyers and keep them coming back.
 
Stats websites and directories are still a valuable link source, especially to get a new site from the ground.
Beside that, what @Ryuzaki is suggesting also works well, although most of them tend to be nofollow.
 
Manually link build like you're talking about is fantastic, but it's going to take you awhile to see results this way. But, don't get discouraged - all this means is that you're setting yourself up for some very long-term success.

However, most people don't want to wait long to start earning money, so there's a few things you can do to start earning traffic immediately while you're slowly earning links through outreach over time.

Great content is the first step. You need to ensure that the content on your site is the *BEST* on the topic. Make sure you're clearly answering the question the reader is posing. Give them exactly what they want.

Once you have your content up to par, you need to go find where your target audience is hanging out and direct them to your site by being helpful and part of their community. A few good places off the top of my head:
  • Niche forums
  • Q&A sites - quora, yahoo answers, etc
  • reddit
  • facebook/twitter/youtube
  • Niche blog comments
 
Nice thread,
The ABSOLUTE BEST and easiest way to get links is with a high quality article.
-Magnetic headline
-Some cool images
-interesting shareable

Than blast it 3x a day on all social accounts, it will get picked up by a few dingbats and shared, ultimately linked back to you from a few suckers and their porn blogs.

So, what's good shareable content?

Interesting question, Why that's easy peasy!, most people, depending on topic, search and share on a mobile device. That means it needs to be:
-easy to read
-little content
-bullet points/lists
-funny/cool pic
-Nearly brain dead b.s.!

People eat up and share stupid shit like crazy. Think of the last time you hit the like/share botton. U prob saw something that made u smirk, then sent it of to a few friends.

Once you can get past the initial click, snag them with content that's a little more intriguing.
Bada bing, bada BOOM!

Pump to squirts of lotion onto your Palm and roll down your trousers buck'o, because you made it!
 
@Murk I like what you say about "HIGH QUALITY ARTICLE"... This is so important!!!! It all starts with quality content then gain the traffic with link building. That traffic will bring even more friends when you hook them with a good message.

well, yeah that’s was one of the important parts, but, I guess if there is one thing I really want you to take away from that post its this:

"Pump two squirts of lotion onto your Palm and roll down your trousers Buck'o, because you made it!"

I think that’s my new sig!
 
Yeah, to hell with that "HIGH QUALITY ARTICLE" bullshit! Who are you the content article police?
WTF!!!!!!!!!
 
create great content finish that with a "cliffhanger" that makes your audience hungry to find out what more interesting things you have to say on the subject and use content locker to make your audience do well at least some of your marketing, It will put some people off, but the majority will hapely share your content in order to get more.
 
Lol, you got me!

I know, it sound so stupid and it toke me a long time to believe it.
But it's true. A good peace spreads through social media like a fire, dropping links along the way

I think broken link building works best when you've found a resource that has lots of links which no longer works...

Recreate (or improve on) the content that no longer works, then reach out to all the people who used the old, broken link.

Normally produces a pretty good conversion rate, it's just finding a great bit of content with lots of links to rebuild that's tough.
