backlinking to wordpress blog VS goarticle?

10 replies
Hey guys

I am looking to rank in a series of different niches with specific keywords, and have built a blog for each niche to presell the affiliate product that I am looking to promote.

I will be outsourcing my backlink tasks to try and rank for different keywords, however would you recommend backlinking to my niche articles on goarticles etc. Or would you recommend backlinking to my niche Wordpress blogs?

I like the idea of backlinking to my blog, as it will be my OWN property. It's quite scary to think that building your business on articles hosted by propeties owned by someone else could vanish overnight if something happens to the company.

Any ideas/tips would be much appreciated.

Thanks again

Simon

      Definitely link back to your blog. In my experience if you use your main keyword in your domain name and do your on-page SEO right your blog will rank better than goarticles or other third-party properties. Plus you are not limited with the number of links or their placement. And no need to worry that somebody takes down your content for what ever reason.

      That's my opinion if anyone thinks something different I would appreciate to hear your opinion

    IMO you should always link back to your own blogs, I have nothing against linking back to sites like goarticles or ezinearticles but like you said at the end of the day you have no control over those websites. They could do anything from shoving 3 full adsense banners around your article (which will drastically lower the click thru rate) all the way to removing your article or even banning you.

    Hi,

    I got an opinion :-)

    Build backlinks to your wp blogs, that is sure thing that you need to do, I agree.

    If you got content on go articles, and these articles promoting different keywords with your wp blogs, but related to your affiliate products, I guess it is good to build backlinks to goarticles articles too.

    Goarticles articles easy to rank, and by making these articles rank you got more traffic source. For instance, if you promote keyword 1, Keyword 2, and keyword 2 using go articles, then by making them rank high, you got 3 resources of traffic while your wp blog rank for different keyword.

    Don't be affraid build backlink to goarticles, as long as your content is nice, it will be ok.

    that's very interesting, it does make sense to build your rankings on properties that you own yourself. Imagine building a $100 per day business just for the article directiry to go bust! Ouch

    Definitely link back to your blogs. I would suggest Brute Force Linking Loophole for your backlinks. I ran the software once on a brand new blog and put it in number 1 position in google with 95 million competition. Definitely worthwhile.

    I'd recommend backlinking to Goarticles. I've noticed that it generally works best!

    Back Linking is a skill and I would go as far as saying an art that everyone in internet marketing needs to learn and can be lots of fun if done correctly. First thing to know is how much traffic is there for each keyword? Then you need to know how much competition there is for each keyword and is it even possible to rank on the first page of Google for those keywords. Then how many competing sites for that keyword, and you also need to know how many back links and what kind of back links you'll need. Also, when you start you back link progress you'll want to use anchor text linking. This kind of linking is the most effective way for achieving ranking. I hope this information has been helpful to you.

    Backlink to both.

    Of course you get the direct link juice from backlinks to your blog. But don't go too fast, you could get put in the sandbox.

    However, with your articles, you can backlink at a higher rate because goarticles already has tons of back links. Backlinking your articles will raise them in the search results, and pass link juice to your blog....

    Plus get you more direct traffic from more people finding your articles.

    Have a great new year
