You will find your website on top of all major search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing for their targeted terms if you are doing link building properly. And in case you are taking some shortcuts or using automatic programs or tools for backlinking purpose, will see some form of penalty on your website from search engines. In today's article, I'm going to share some guidelines one should follow while doing link building for their own or client websites:

  • You should keep on changing your anchor text frequently. Keeping variety in anchor text will help with your SEO efforts. And in case you keep on building backlinks using one anchor text only, you are trying to make your link creation history to be non-natural. And it may result in some form of penalty from search engines.
  • You should not be generating backlinks for one page of your website only, rather should get links for all targeted backlinks. When building backlinks for my websites, I always go for deep linking. So you should not focus on creating backlinks for your website home page only.
  • You should be aiming at developing backlinks for your website slowly and in a natural way. And if you are building thousands of backlinks for your newly created website in a single day, you are sending red signals to search engines. Suppose you are creating 5-10 backlinks per day for your website, you should continue with that kind of pace. And in case you want to increase that pace, increase that slowly, because it looks natural to increase your backlinks pace as the age of your domain increase.
  • Create a good mixture of old as well as new websites while developing backlinks for your website.
  • Don't rely too heavily on a single link building process. You should be using different kind of techniques while doing link building for your website. If you doing just link exchange for developing backlinks for your website, you should use other link building methods like blog commenting, articles submissions, directory submissions etc to bring more diversity into your website backlinks.
  • It’s all about keep on building more and more quality backlinks for your website. Suppose, your website is ranking well on Google for all of their targeted keywords with your link building efforts, you should not stop your link building campaign here, but rather spend more time on promoting your website in search engines using different link building approaches.
