Link build is time-consuming and most don’t do it because it can take forever.  Often times the results are poor because of how long it takes. But it doesn’t have to be that way.  There are tips and tricks below in this article that will help you build links like a boss!
Finding Blogs
The first thing you need to do is curate a list of potential blogs for outreach.  Sure, there are multiple methods and some are more successful than others. We will outline two effective methods you can use.
Chase backlinks from your competitors. This is the single best method because these blogs link out to your competitors. They are more than likely to link to your website as well. This type of link prospecting should always be your first priority.
The next method is to search Google for websites that accept guest posts.  You can do this by typing in your subject plus write for us in quotes in a Google search.
Example:  marketing + “write for us”
You can also change the “write for us” to other related words like “guest posts” or “contributor” which all work well for finding these opportunities.
Types of Links
You can find quest posting opportunities but with link building, there are also other forms.  You may want to focus on broken link building which is finding links that are no longer working.  Then create a resource to replace these links.
Or you can do niche edit link building which is quick and easy. Here you ask a blogger to edit there content to add your link to an existing page of theirs.  But why would they do this?  This really only works if you perform some sort of exchange or create a good enough resource they would want to add it to their page.
Outreach Process
The actual outreach process is hugely important.  Many of the blogs receive tons of request every day asking to post a guest post.  So, how can you make your email stand out and get an actual response?
You can read the many case studies online that discuss blogger outreach but it really depends on who you are contacting.
