Link building strategy & google penalties

boris s · 06-08-2009, 04:07 AM

Hello,

Ok so i can't quite put together a decent link building strategy!

To put my work in context, I have a niche authority blog in france (where i live) and a few other mini niche sites.

I’ve produced some really good quality content but despite what some people are saying, I keep on getting outranked by sites with more aggressive linking strategies.

I've tried some dofollow blog commenting (at a very slow pace : 2 per days per page) and it's worked ok.
I'm trying to accelerate the linking rythm but i fear google penalties (and i've got first signs that this is hurting because i've lost some significant rankings on one of the keywords)

I've tried angela's backlinks from the wso and it's worked well for one keyword, not at all for the second (which was a pretty recent page from my blog, which could be an explanation).

I don't trust the senuke type of software for express social bookmarking and article posting because i can't imagine google doesn't pick up that kind of "hyperactivity" so i've shied away from trying.
Am i wrong ?

And then, there's press release, article marketing, social bookmarking, youtube, forums, link exchange... Il feel confused/overwhelmed.

Can anyone give me some guidelines regarding how many links per page per day is ok for google ?

Plus, what kind of mix between the different link building strategies works best. Should i stick with 2-3 linkbuilding strategies or is a mix of all strategies more efficient ? Which are more effective and whick seem like a waste of time/energy from your experience ?

Thanks

Well.. do some link building with the same theme based sites and try to get links on well pr pages and the links page should look natural and not forced. Do the directory submissions, try to get some featured listing as well. Comment on blogs and try to get link in blog roll. All you can do, BUT it should look very natural and not forced and dont get hurry go slowly, the result you may find will be pretty fine.

thanks aartig but what would "look very natural" mean for you ?
1,2, 5,... link per page per day? per week ?

I can't reaaly get a feel for this
