Agree it or not, buy-sell link had been one of the major part in
SEO jobs. While results are not guanranteed, we SEOers often spend quite a fortune in buying/building artificial links.
Money spent, result not guaranteed, and your website might get banned - this doesn't sound like a good deal at all.
Thus the question: Can we do
SEO for Google by following purely to Google's webmaster guide lines (aka no link buying, no link exchange, no link building work at all)?
I am sure some would then say 'content is king, build good content and the users will come, blah blah blah' - but hey gimme a break, how do the users suppose to find your good content if they don't even know about your website?
So let's have that argument aside for a moment and assume that
SEO is a must and our websites must have links - how do we do that, by not violating Google's guidelines?
As you already would guess - yes, I am tired of spending my money in buying links and in the same time worry about Google's filter day and night.
As far as I tried, here is what I think *could be* efficient and practical for small webmaster can do to build links, but not violating the Google Almighty's rules.
- Build free blog themes and share out.
- Donation to your local charity organisation.
- Write and submit articles to directories.
- Comment (not spam) in related blog.
- Participate in industrial community (forum) and give out links
Now I had give out my list, how about yours? Some brainstorming together, perhaps?
Can SEO survive without building artificial links?
