Ask Your Friends for Backlinks\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/h3\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cimg src=\"https:\/\/blog.monitorbacklinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/free-backlinks-1.gif\" \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBuilding on the same theme, let’s go back to your network to request more free backlinks. However, this method only works if you do it the right way.\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe Wrong Way: Asking for backlinks from irrelevant websites or from past acquaintances who barely remember you. I once had a past colleague—who hadn’t talked to me in three years—suddenly appear and ask me for advice on applying for a job. I helped him, but I did hesitate for a few minutes. Another wrong way? Asking for backlinks to your homepage instead of a specific resource or product. Specific requests tend to be more compelling.\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe Right Way: Add value when asking for a backlink. For example, if your friend loves “Game of Thrones” and your new infographic references House Lannister, then you have a winning combination. Alternatively, connect your request to a goal your friend has.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAs with the first technique, you’ll send an outreach message (i.e. an email, Facebook message, LinkedIn message, etc) to request the backlink. If you’re sending several of these requests, take your time to get each message right. There’s nothing worse than messing up details.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ETip: Use your organizational connections too! Did you graduate from college or university? If so, you can sometimes request free backlinks from the organization’s alumni page.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ch3\u003E3. Reach Out to Industry Publications and Websites\u003C\/h3\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EEverybody wants the New York Times, CNN or Fox to write about them and give them a free backlink. But for 98% of us, we’re not ready for that opportunity.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EEven if you are ready for it, these large, general interest publications aren’t laser-focused on your niche. Instead of spending weeks pitching to the Times, you can get better results by researching 3-6 publications more specifically relevant to your industry.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EYou might not be able to get on Forbes or Fortune, but there’s a whole tier of niche industry publications where you can get backlinks. Here’s an example of how to implement this strategy in the project management industry.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhen I was building up my project management website, I successfully earned free backlinks from over two dozen websites. I used a three-step method:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EStep 1. Use Google search to find blogs and publications\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EUse searches like this:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E“project management blogs”\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E“project manager blogs”\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E“project management guest post”\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E“project management magazines”\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ESome of the websites I found a few years ago included \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.projectmanagement.com\/\"\u003EProjectManagement.com\u003C\/a\u003E, \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/projectmanage.com\/\"\u003EProjectManage.com\u003C\/a\u003E, \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/pmtips.net\/\"\u003EPMTips.net\u003C\/a\u003E and \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.arraspeople.co.uk\/camel-blog\/\"\u003EArras People\u003C\/a\u003E.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EStep 2. Visit the websites you find in Step 1\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ETake a look around the site and if they seem like a good fit, add them to your list of websites to contact. A simple spreadsheet is a good way to keep track of these potential free backlink opportunities.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EStep 3. Start the outreach process to ask for free backlinks\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EYou can either ask for a backlink to a relevant URL on your website or offer to contribute a guest post. I’ve had the best results from contributing high-quality guest blog posts.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ch3\u003E4.

It’s easy when you use content repurposing.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EHere’s an example of how to put this into action:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E1. You write a popular blog post that attracts backlinks and plenty of traffic. Once you find such a winner, it’s time to pour gas on the flames!\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E2. Create a related piece of content on a different platform covering the same information as that original blog post.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EFor example, you could create a 2-3 minute \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/\"\u003EYouTube\u003C\/a\u003E video where you cover the main ideas—just highlight three of the most interesting points and have your speaking notes ready!

Create social media updates pointing back to the YouTube video or SlideShare presentation, and to the original article.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EDepending on your skills, you can keep using this strategy over and over again to spread your same message.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe first time you put content repurposing into action, it may feel tough. But keep at it!\u003Cbr \/\u003E5. Appear as a Guest on Podcasts\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ESpeaking for myself, I love to write—however, I recognize that some people prefer to speak.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EHere’s the good news: You can talk about your website and get high-quality backlinks, by appearing on relevant podcasts.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EA large number of podcasts are based on interviewing new guests.

You can help by appearing as a guest.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ETo get the best free backlinks from appearing on podcasts, make some preparations up front. You need to find the overlap between these areas: the subject of the podcast and 2-3 topics you’re comfortable speaking about over 20-30 minutes.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn brief, here are the steps you need to follow to get free backlinks through podcasts:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E1.

Search Google for industry-related podcasts\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EFor example, to promote a software program like Monitor Backlinks, I’d search for podcasts that relate to SEO and online marketing.

Visit the podcast website and look for information on how to become a guest\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ESome podcasts have an “apply to be a podcast guest” page, where you can pitch yourself as a podcast guest. \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.niceguysonbusiness.com\/guest-inquiries\/\"\u003EHere’s an example on The Nice Guys on Business Podcast’s website\u003C\/a\u003E.

Appear as a guest on podcast\u003C\/h3\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EDuring your appearance, you may have a few opportunities to share links to your site. If you’re saying a URL, it has to be short and simple, such as your domain name. Most podcast listeners won’t listen to (or remember) a 50-character URL!\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E6. Ask the podcast host to include backlinks to your website in the show notes\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EMost podcasts have a “show notes” blog post for each episode. These posts summarize the podcast episode, provide links to resources mentioned and encourage people to listen. This is a great place to get backlinks.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ch3\u003E6. Write High-value Comments on Blogs and Websites\u003C\/h3\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhile these backlinks don’t always pass along SEO juice, they help you to build relationships and send higher quality traffic to your website. This approach also helps to build your network and opens the door for guest posts later.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EFor the best results, I recommend using this backlink strategy in combination with other tips in this post.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EMake sure you leave high-value comments—no writing 2-to-3-word meaningless comments like “great post.”\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cimg src=\"https:\/\/blog.monitorbacklinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/free-backlinks-3.gif\" \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ETake the time to pick out one or two concepts from the content you found interesting and explain why. Another approach: Ask a question to clarify a point in the content.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhere exactly does your backlink come into the picture when you write comments? There are two opportunities.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EFirst, many blog comment platforms have a website field you can use when you write a comment. That’s one place where you can earn a free backlink. Here’s an example from \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/tim.blog\/\"\u003ETim Ferriss’s website\u003C\/a\u003E (author of “The 4-Hour Workweek” and other books):\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cimg src=\"https:\/\/blog.monitorbacklinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/free-backlinks-1.jpg\" \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn some cases, you can also mention a relevant URL in the body of your comment. Putting URLs in the body of your comment isn’t always allowed by website owners however. As you can see in the example above, Tim Ferriss’s comment rules forbid that practice.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EHow do you find websites to write comments on? Use the Google search method outlined in the above strategy to build a list. The one nuance is to focus your efforts on websites that allow comments.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ENeil Patel put this strategy in action when he wrote 249 blog comments and earned $25,000. The case study is from 2014, and the principles are still valid today.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ch3\u003E7. Use Your Social Media Profiles to improve traffic\u003C\/h3\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThis is an easy win! Review your company’s social media profiles and make sure your URL is there. There are three ways to get free backlinks from social media.\u003Cbr \/\u003EYour social media profile: Most social networks let you enter your URL on your profile main page. To make the best use of this online real estate, enter a landing page URL to capture leads.\u003Cbr \/\u003ESocial media posts and updates: Most of your posts across different social media platforms can include free backlinks to your website.\u003Cbr \/\u003ESocial media posts and updates from other people: While it’s outside of your control, you can also ask or encourage people to share links to your content.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ENot sure which social networks to use? At a minimum, I recommend using \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/\"\u003EFacebook\u003C\/a\u003E, \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/\"\u003ELinkedIn\u003C\/a\u003E and \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/\"\u003ETwitter\u003C\/a\u003E.

If you’re promoting books, for example, \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/\"\u003EGoodreads\u003C\/a\u003E is a good choice. Read “\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.convertwithcontent.com\/60-niche-social-networks-marketers\/\"\u003E60+ Niche Social Networks Marketers Should Know About\u003C\/a\u003E” to discover some of the lesser-known social media services where you can gain free backlinks.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ch3\u003E8.

The answer depends on your network and the website you’re promoting.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EUse Domain Authority as a simple rule of thumb. If you see DA 50 and higher backlinks, avoid pursuing those unless you have at least one high authority (i.e. DA 50 or higher) backlink already. Otherwise, focus your efforts on lower DA backlink opportunities.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ELooking for an easy backlink win? Focus your research on pages where your competitor is listed as one of many resources. For example, look for resource pages, recommended tools pages and the like. If a website owner has created a page that profiles five, 10 or more websites in a category, they might be open to adding you to their website.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EHere’s an example of a \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/salesfunnelbroker.com\/resources\"\u003Eresource page from Sales Funnel Broker\u003C\/a\u003E listing various marketing tools and resources.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ch3\u003E9.

Review the brand mentions that come up in Google Alerts\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EEach time you see your brand keywords mentioned, ask yourself, “is it a promising free backlink?” If somebody’s speaking positively about your website and products, great—you have the potential to get a backlink. If the brand mention is negative, you can still try to get a backlink, but you’ll have a lower chance of success.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E4. Start the outreach process\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn your outreach messages to the website owner, explain that you came across their website and noticed that they mentioned your brand.

Reach out to experts to request an interview\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EUse your cold email skills to reach out and request an interview. If your website has impressive statistics (e.g. 100,000 unique visitors per month), include those details in your pitch as it’ll increase the odds of getting a yes.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E5. Conduct the interview\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EI recommend conducting the interview using \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.skype.com\/en\/\"\u003ESkype\u003C\/a\u003E, and you can record the call for free by using the \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/voipcallrecording.com\/\"\u003EMP3 Skype Recorder\u003C\/a\u003E. Or, \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/zoom.us\/\"\u003EZoom\u003C\/a\u003E is a great paid option that lets you record video calls as well.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E6. Publish and promote the interview and ask for backlinks\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EOnce you complete the interview, it’s time to publish it on your website. If you have a video interview, you can also publish the interview to YouTube and get another backlink. Finally, email the interviewer and ask them to link to your interview.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ETip: Did you record the interview as an audio file and want to publish it as a written article? You can transcribe the recording yourself or use a transcription service like \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/rev.com\/\"\u003ERev\u003C\/a\u003E. Note that a raw transcript will still need some editing for clarity before you publish it.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ch3\u003E11. Check Broken Backlinks\u003C\/h3\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBroken backlinks make the web a poorer place. You can make everyone’s life better by fixing them. So how exactly do you find those broken backlinks?\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EUse these steps:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E1. Create a list of 3-5 websites you’d like to get a backlink from.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E2. Use the \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.brokenlinkcheck.com\/\"\u003EBroken Link Checker\u003C\/a\u003E to find broken backlinks on their pages. Here’s what I found using the Broken Link Checker on CBC.ca, a news website in Canada:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.brokenlinkcheck.com\/\"\u003E\u003Cimg src=\"https:\/\/blog.monitorbacklinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/free-backlinks-4.jpg\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E3. Review each of the broken backlinks for relevance to your website. You need to use your judgement to determine if you have a URL that would be a good substitute for a broken backlink.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn the CBC.ca example above, nothing related to marketing or SEO came up. As a result, there’s not much opportunity to use this strategy on this particular website. That’s fine—you’ll simply have to run through the process a few times. You won’t strike gold every time you seek out broken backlinks.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E4. Reach out to the website owner to request they use one of your URLs instead of the broken URL on their website. Remember that asking a website owner to fix a broken backlink requires some tact and diplomacy. You don’t want to come off as accusing them of being negligent.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EMake your request short and polite—you noticed a broken link, and you have a resource that fits the bill. Don’t make this request through public messages like a Tweet because you’re likely to embarrass or anger the website owner.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ch3\u003E12. Create Content About Your Favorite Software, Consultants and Vendors\u003C\/h3\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EDid your accountant help you save money at tax time? Alternatively, did a developer speed up your website dramatically? Create content like a blog post or video about them.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cimg src=\"https:\/\/blog.monitorbacklinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/free-backlinks-5.gif\" \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EFor the best results, I recommend reaching out to the vendor and asking them what they’d like you to cover in your review. If they’re unsure, here are some suggestions to get the conversation going:\u003Cbr \/\u003ENew service offering. Does the vendor have a new service they want to promote? If you’ve used it, you can promote it in your review.\u003Cbr \/\u003ESEO keywords. Is your vendor trying to rank for a specific set of keywords? If so, you can use those keywords when you link out to their website.\u003Cbr \/\u003EUnique selling proposition. What’s your vendor uniquely good at? For instance, a marketing consultant may guarantee 10 leads in 30 days or your money back. If you’ve benefited from that service, you could mention the guarantee in your article.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ENow that you know the vendor’s goals, \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/blog.monitorbacklinks.com\/seo\/onsite-seo-checklist\/\"\u003Ecreate the content and publish it on your website\u003C\/a\u003E.
