If you want to establish your site, there is something that you simply must do. You really need to get to know the other people that have sites like yours. You may be hesitant to do this but nothing is going to help you more than getting to know the people in your industry.
Most people sit back hoping that somehow the biggest sites in their industry will magically find them and link to them. Honestly this isn’t just going to happen by itself. It will happen only if and when you make it happen.
There are a lot of different ways to get to know the people that have solid sites in your industry but the first step is simply making a list of the people/sites that you need to get to know. There are a few key things that I would note down when you make your list:
- Name of each site owner
- URL of each site
- Contact information for the site owners
- Whether each site has one author or multiple authors
- If the sites accept guest articles/posts
Keep in mind that you aren’t going to get to know each of these people all at once. You’ll start by trying to get to know that ones that have sites that are more at your level. The people that have really popular sites probably won’t be as approachable because they’re going to have a bunch of people trying to contact them every day.
Finding Sites/Contacts To Add To Your List
There are a couple techniques that I use to make a list of contacts to add to my list:
- Searching Google for my keyword and for related keywords
- Searching Technorati for my keyword and for related keywords
Usually I can add a ton of contacts to my list by going through those two sites. The sites that rank well in Google will be the ones that can help you the most, but will also be the hardest to get help from. The next step in the 30 Days To Better SEO will cover contacting these people so today we’re going to stop here. Make your list!!
Hey Guys. Love the blog and the link building advice. I bought the video series, well worth the price.
My question is that I have three blogs that have pretty much been sandboxed but not delisted. Some of the posts still rank really well while others do not rank well at all. this happened three weeks ago in the latest Google serp shake up. Is it a good idea to use the blogs for sending links to my other blogs.
Thanks a lot for the Information.
