The strategy I am talking about is creating meaningful backlinks to multiple pages on your website. I am not talking about reciprocal linking, but rather getting your website address and sub page URLs on other people's pages.

This strategy of creating backlinks worked 10 years ago, and it will work 10 years from now. Every backlink that you create is a potential road leading to your website.

The more traffic you want to get to your site the more back links you should be working at getting. So what are the best ways to get backlinks?

1. Article marketing is a fantastic way to get back links because articles stay archived online and can lead to traffic years from now.

2. Blogging and social bookmarking is another fantastic way to get backlinks. Every time you bookmark your blog article to a social directory you create a back link. This link can mean traffic to you from the social directory, as well and as a backlink from a search engine who picks it up.

3. Post comments in other people's blogs. Although this can be time consuming every post that you make can be potential traffic for you in the future as well.

One place to find blogs to comment in is to subscribe to Google Alerts for targeted keyword phrases that relate to the theme of your blog. You can receive these alerts on a daily basis and receive them in the form of news as well as blog articles on Google.

Go check out the blog articles and comment on ones that make sense. Every comment is a potential back link for you.

4. Post comments in discussion forums and link back to your site in your signature file. The key is to be in the best possible discussion forums as possible. Discussion forums are a great way to get quality traffic because every discussion posts can be picked up by search engines and ranked as well.

In summary the absolute best link building strategy is to work on backlinks. These four ways are good ways to do that and if you are committed to working on it every day can make a big impact on your business in the future.
