Backlinking a New Site

What is the best way to backlink a brand new site in its first month? I have read that 10-20 backlinks a day is the max you should be creating. I have purchased a few backlink WSO's for sites that are over 2 months old and have seen great results. Is it best to stay away from such packages until the site ages beyond 30 days?

All of my sites are a few months old now and I know I could have seen better results during the early days had I done things differently i.e. not been deindexed or held my higher positions longer.

Also, are there any WSO packages specifically targeting NEW sites?

  • Since we`re talking about a new website I recommend you to start slow. In the first month do some social networking, social bookmarking and a few article submission. It`s imperative for Google to find and index those first links

    I told you this because i have seen a case when somebody builded thousands of backlinks for a new website. The good part is that the website wasn`t sandboxed but here it comes the bad part too : Even if the website wasn`t blacklisted Google indexed only a few backlinks. I think they have seen a "rapid growth" for that site and keeps an eye on him so be careful. Start slow and increase each month and you should be safe.
  • Write some articles with links pointing to your sites. Hubpages is good for getting decent PR links to your website. I have a few hubs that are PR2 or PR3 linking in to a couple of my sites.
  • Slowly build backlinks at the start. There's a school of thought that says Google may raise a red flag for new sites that instantly get a lot of backlinks.
  • My rule of thumb, and you by no means have to follow it but:

    I always limit myself to 5-10 blog posts a day. 1 press release a day, 1 video, 1-3 forum posts.

    I always bookmark my pages in bulk anyway, and create a feed for all my pages and backlinks.

    I continue this path for roughly 7 weeks. Amongst those, I uploading files to document sharing sites and so forth.

    Week 2, I add some secondary articles to external properties (ezine articles, wordpress).

    I build them on keywords that either my competitors use or keywords I don't want to rank for. This way the topic is still relevant, and I'm not missing out on something I wanted to rank.

    Create unique articles for all these (quality though, research does go into this)

    Then I build as many links as I want to these secondary properties. Not spam, and I don't automate it either, it's all manual.

    Other than that, I never pass up a guest posts offer, and I would build as many as I want in a day/week/month if I had the chance, because they have great benefits.

    I follow this process for roughly 7 weeks (for one page on my website, adding others but not linking to them). At the end of the 7 weeks I begin the process but now doing it for 2 pages.

    So my links double. I make sure the backlinks for my other page tapers off slowly and I just unload something like 3-way links over the coming months.

    Eventually It'll get to the point where I'm now doing 3-4 pages for my site on a daily bases, at which point I wont add more the the mix, and maybe even make sure that it doesn't look too evenly spread =)

    Those ofcourse are for physical product reviews, and if instead I was doing it on an info niche, I'd rely much more on syndication, rather than ranking on a search engine.

    • Wow great layout Jason. More than answered the question. Thank you!

      On the other hand I still have a few questions, do you happen to offer a WSO or is this along the guidelines of an existing WSO? I would pay to see this in action have a workable guide to follow.
    • Great post.. hate to jump in but say I posted a thread in another forum saying please review my site bla bla would that count as a back link?

  • I would make sure your site is indexed in all the free service directories and social bookmarking sites like delicious.com also in articles on high PR sites like squidoo.com
  • It is always recommended to start with only a few backlinks for a new site so that Google would not raise a red flag on the site...
  • For a brand new site I would not do any backlinking to it for at least 2 to 3 weeks,I would just digg the home page and wait for the site to get indexed first before you start a backlinking campaign to the site.
