The cheapest way to get backlinks for your website

Free seo for backlinks to your site.

This tutorial assumes that you have some working knowledge of website construction, ftp and basic seo techniques. 

Firstly, if you have done your keyword research properly and built your website around them, well then you have made a very good start. I personally use Keyword Blaze to do most of the job, it’s free and it’s smart and allows unlimited projects…there is a limit to the searchs allowed each day, but 50 search queries will be enough for most webmasters I reckon. Download it here:

Keyword Blaze

You will also need Adobe Air to run it which is available from the same link, but that is also free and runs on windows and linux for those geeks out there.

Of course, you can still use Google Keyword Tool, probably the best known keyword research tool 100% free, and most of the paid tools draw their information from Google anyway, so if you don’t have a Google account (and you don’t have to have one, it just means your search queries are more limited unless you are signed in) you should get one even if you only use it for keyword research. Have a look at it here:
Google Keyword Tool

If you want to buy the greatest keyword research tool out there then I strongly recommend
Keyword Scout.

Secondly, if you have optimised content to accommodate these keywords then that is better still. The optimised content will give more power to your backlinks and give you better search engine rankings if the keywords in your pages and your anchor text in the backlinks match up.

The cheapest backlinks for your website

There are a few free seo tools to help you optimise your pages, I personally like Website Auditor, one of the free SeoPowerSuite tools which you can get here:

SeoPowerSuite

The free version will give you some recommendations for optimising your content and correcting any seo errors. The full version will allow you to save a project, the free version saves nothing and only allows you to work on one project. The developers will send you special offers from time to time trying to tempt you to buy the full pro or enterprise version. Also it is good to know that the suite runs on any platform that can use java.

Finished optimising your pages?

There are a few free tools that are indispensable for seo. Firstly, in order to get your pages indexed, you must get ‘seo fast indexer’, it is a free part of Seo Link Robot and available to download here:

Fast Indexer Pro V2

That gets your pages into the search engines to begin with, it might take a couple of days or a few hours.

Once you have finished your onpage optimisation and indexing you can start to plan a backlinking campaign.
You will want a variety of links coming from sources such as blog comments, articles, social bookmarksand directories. Most of these can be acquired free providing you have time to work on the project and write a few articles, do a lot of research etc.

Firstly, assuming that you have already got some quality original content on your website, you can start doing some serious backlinking
Your content can be syndicated to a number of places. You can take a paragraph or two of each page and change them a little before posting them on Web 2.0 sites such as WordPress.com or Tumblr or Blogger.
You will have to register with all these sites and do the work manually which is time consuming but worth the effort if you include three backlinks in each post on each site, all with your optimised keyword anchor text for best effect.

You can submit your website and all its pages to directories by using this free directory submitter which you can download here:

Fast Directory Submitter

Now how about using other resources? If you don’t already have a Google account then get one. It is essential to submit your website sitemap to search engines anyway and because Google gets the vast proportion of all free organic search traffic, you should submit your sitemap here:

Google Webmaster Tools   The easiest way of getting your sitemap (if you don’t have a WordPress installation) is to go and get one here:

Free Sitemap Generator  Once you have your generated sitemap.xml, you will need to upload it to the root of your website using ftp.

Google also offer free backlinks from your account profile, complete with anchor text. That is extremely powerful because Google is the most powerful site on the web…according to Google methods of calculating that!

Next do the same on Youtube, you will not need to upload video but you could if you wanted. Again set up backlinks in the profile and then comment on other videos and channels to get Google page-rank for your profile.

Now take your content once again and spin it. Yet another free tool that is brilliant is Spinner Chief. You can get it from the spinner chief site here:

Free Article Spinner

Paste your articles into the box and spin manually if you have the time (it’s far more acurrate) or use auto spin and then submit these new articles to directories like ezine or article go, there are many, but I invested in a special piece or software called Article Marketing Robot to do the work quicker and more efficiently while I get on with other stuff. There are free submitters available but they are not worth trying, you may as well do it all manually.

So next you can go and drop a few links at Social Monkee. Get it here:

These are all free social bookmarks and you can get them by clicking the link. Simply think of a few words to describe your webpage, some keywords and then give them a spin and away you go. 25 free backlinks every single day.

Now you can get Traffic Launch Pad and backlink all your pages and all your backlinks just by filling in three boxes and hitting start.

Blog comments for traffic and ranking

I use several really great tools to help me with my link building, but the most often used software is always that associated with commenting on blogs. You most likely already know that all blogs have the possibility of enabling comments so that readers can leave on-topic and useful additions to the article. Unfortunately it has largely been associated with spammers who auto-post by the million to unprotected blogs, so these days it is hard to find quality blogs that are not ‘nofollow’.

But, by using the following tools, you can find really high quality pages to comment on, and even if there is a  nofollow tag used, you can still get benefits and traffic.

Try using the free version of Fast Blog Finder or Comment Hut or Comment Kahuna and you will find with these free seo tools that there are several different ways to find good sources for comment backlinks.

Another and perhaps the most important and powerful piece of weaponry in my arsenal…Scrapebox. It must be purchased, there is no free version, but I have a discounted page for Scrapebox that lets you buy it for $57 instead of $197.
Here it is:

buy cheap scrapebox

If you decide to buy it, and who would blame you, you will also need 10 private proxies to use it without being banned or blocked by Google. I use cheap proxies that are shared, not exclusive, but they work fine the majority of the time and cost me $9 dollars per month. You can get them here:
Cheap shared proxies

This tool (Scrapebox) is incredible. It has gained a bad reputation over the years for being a spammers delight because it can post thousands of comments and trackbacks per day on autopilot. It can do that…and in the wrong hands it can be a dangerous tool because you will end up getting backlinks pointing right at your site from porno sites, gambling sites etc. Not a good idea.

Instead, use it the right way like I do. Take your niche keywords, find some footprints or download mine from here:
Scrapebox footprints –

Now save the list of scraped urls to a text file and then use the buttons on the right to filter the results. For example, get rid of duplicate urls. (not duplicate domains), get rid of urls containing /category/ or /tag/ in the url, and also .pdf and .doc and .txt

This will leave you with a master list of pages, most of which have the opportunity for a backlink, and if you make a mistake in the filtering process, just reload the saved txt file you saved and start again.
Before you start to post any comments, you need to check the pagerank of the URL, again the button on the right, not the domain pagerank, the URL.
Now you have a list of urls with their respective page rank. Sort them using the PR button on the top right of the results box and then you can cherrypick the high PR urls and comment manually and carefully for maximum acceptance and approval rates.

You should copy and save the urls of all your comments, social bookmarks, articles and web 2.0 posts so that you can fire up Traffic Launch Pad and Fast Indexer Pro again to get those links indexed.

Another very useful piece of free software is Traffic Travis V4. There is a free version, get it here:
Traffic Travis free and you can buy the Traffic Travis V4.1 Pro version for $97 if you want.

Lastly but not lastly, is the need to check up on your work and see how your website stacks up against the competition. There is a tool included in the Seo Powersuite that allows for checking your search engine ranking for the keywords you have selected. It is called Rank Tracker and again, the free version allows you check any site you want, but only one at a time and you can’t save the results, but you will get valuable info.

The final piece of the jigsaw is Google Analytics. You can use this by submitting your site to GA and then copying and pasting a piece of code into the header of every page you want tracked, or in WordPress and other CMS’s, install the tracking code in the template just once. You will then get accurate traffic information to assess the performance of your website in terms of quantity of visitors, keywords used to arrive, where they originate from and much much more.

Happy seoing.
