Farming Money with SEO [Guide #3]
Here we are going to cover linkcreators
Number one thing in optimizing your website with SEO is to create your content to be unique and easy to share. You want to create content that other people are going to share. Why? This method is great for generating tons of backlinks everywhere on the internet and the best part of it people will do this for you, where your job is to put out content and not to pay or reach out to places in hopes to build your backlinks. This power that other people are going to share your content is also known as linkcreators.
Backlinks are basically pages on the internet from which other people can click links that redirect to your website and are one of the most important factors when it comes ranking in SEO. More pages link to your website the higher you can expect to be ranked on Google. Google even confirms that backlinks is among top 3 factors that are taken into consideration for rankings, because it shows how many people like your content in a way. If more pages links to your website, then your website must be valuable.
Okay lets turn to the diamond question and that is how to get people hooked to happily share your content across the internet?
Firstly you want to identify potential people that are within your niche and who are able to share your articles, refer those people as Linkcreators.
In short we can categorize visitors to your website into 2 categories:
- People that have website in your niche
- People that are simply looking for helpful info without a website
Where most people get things wrong is that they tend to optimize their articles and write them exclusively for one category – for people that don’t have a website, but target just “customers”. If you want to successfully build great backlinks you MUST focus on the first grop : people with websites in your niche, because you want them to like your content and share it on their website. Which overall will convert some of their audience to you and thus bring more traffic, not to mention that they are also trying to rank on SEO. The higher rank their site is, the better is it for you.
You’ve probably heard this a million times: “Content is king, create great content and traffic will follow” and this is false. Why? Simply because if people can’t see your content what difference does it make if you create extraordinary or really low in value content?
Social Shares and Links to your website are 2 totally different things for SEO. There is no straight coloration if your post gains more links it will proportionaly get the same amount of shares and vise versa. These are not connected, because they depend on the way for who you write your articles to, to which audience. Direct links from other websites have proven to be way more effective than having shares on social media in terms of SEO. Of course that both are beneficial in terms of getting traffic o your website.
What are the steps to find your potential linkcreators?
Find linkcreators
Search your niche keywords on google and webpages that shows in the first google page results are YOUR linkcreators. If these websites had bad content and are not doing SEO right they would not be there. By searching for your link creators you want to find people that are in your niche but be aware of direct competitors. For instance you run eCom store, you don’t go and search for stores that sell exact same thing as you and those are not pages that you want for your linkcreators.
If you can not find direct webpages that are in your niche you want to broader your search to the shoulder niches. Shoulder niches are simply an area that is closely related to your main niche.
Find who links to them
The goal for this is to find potential linkcreators that you have not found in the first step. Because these are linked to your niche, it is perfect because you are in the same industry. How to find these? You can use tools such as Majestic SEO, Ahrefs or Moz and search for backlinks on these websites.
Find Best Lists
We need these in order to find huge influencers in our niche. So just search for Best Blogs for your niche on google. This is great trick as people already researched others and are giving you valuable information about which blogs are the best out there.
