I'm sure this has been posted before but I have to confess that I am lazy. So the thought of scouring the internet and getting back links gives me the shrills. So what I do is go to Google alerts and add an alert for news and blogs that match my keywords that my long tail domains are setup for.

Every day they send me an email of stories matching my criteria, I visit the story and see if comments are allowed, if so I add a relative post, meaning I actually read the story and give an actual real response, then leave my URL in the comment. This actually works, I see in GA good surge in traffic from these links, even if they don't allow links people copy and paste your URL to see your site. All about eyeballs in my opinion.

I am not adding a ton of back links, maybe 5 per day at most, but it adds up and I actually see worth from them.

        Damnit - If I knew it was ok I'd repost the other 9000 posts I already wrote. I'm sure somewhere along the lines it must be a bad idea to just repost the same crap time after time.

                    Who said you weren't a man? You seem to like trying to twist my words to mean something perverted about you - You appear to have a guilty conscience - were you previously a woman or something?

                    p.s. You're still posting.

    Yes, that is good method, but that is really time consuming and I do not think that helps you to get good ranks even that allow you to move slower, It may give you STUCK in middle due to competition and other factors, you have to expand your link building strategy

    Allow the steps below to inspire you to think of other ways to generate back-links.

    * URL directories
    As old as the stars (almost) but still definitely important in any back-linking strategy.As there are thousands of these directories on the internet, you really need to use directory submission software to save yourself some time.


    * Natural back-links
    As your site's stature grows, you will automatically receive organic back-links from other web masters.
    This will take time as your site grows and the content becomes more valuable.


    * Forums, guest books and comment boxes
    By leaving comments in forums, guest books or blog comment fields, you can generate back-links in an instant.
    Remember to put your URL in your signature.


    * Article Marketing
    These have become intensely popular recently and are widely touted as the most efficient way to build back-links to your site.


    * Blogging
    By creating a free account with one of the blog hosting providers, you can set up your own blog in 5 minutes.
    By creating related content in your blog, you can sprinkle in links back to your main site as often as you wish.

    * Creating free software
    This is an exciting idea: you can create free software yourself.
    You do not even need to be a programmer, you can achieve this using software tools available on the internet.Once you have made the software available for download on your site, you can submit to hundreds of software directories who will then link back to your download page.Any niche can make use of a good little piece of software !


    * Social bookmarks
    Shared bookmarks allow other users to see which links are valuable. Create accounts on the most popular Bookmarking sites and share your site's URL together with other bookmarks.


    * Google knol
    You own the knol and no-one else can edit your entry, so this is a great opportunity for creating your own back-links legitimately.


    * RSS marketing
    Create an RSS feed for your site or blog and use Feedburner to publish it to hundreds of RSS aggregators.


    * Video marketing back-links
    By creating a video, you have opened up another method of generating back-links: submit to YouTube and post your hot URL in the description box.
