Why Isn't My Link Building Campaign Working? Several High Value Links But No Increase in Traffic.
- SEO |
Hey guys,
So I've been link building for a client through content marketing, and I have been getting them some awesome links. Through 3 campaigns over the last couple of months, I've generated over 50 high quality dofollow links, 25 of which are top-tier sites like the Huffington Post, MSN, the A.V. Club, etc.
But their traffic isn't moving. What's the deal? Is quantity better than quality or something?
The content I am creating isn't super on target, but generally related. An example is if it was a dog food company, I'd create a project about fictional dogs in the comic book universe. Is 50 super high quality links not enough to make a difference? Really frustrated.
EDIT: Backlinks are generally to the home page of the client site. Does that matter? Should they be links directly to blog content instead?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
