Sending external links is something that every SEOer is already familiar with. How many days and nights have I spent in major forums and blogs just spreading the seeds of external links? Everyone who does SEO knows that external links are crucial to the optimization of a website, so increasing the number of external links to a website is a top priority. There are only two ways to send out external links. Cast a large net, go to major forums and blogs, leave a sentence such as "Ah, the article is good", "I learned it", "Thank you for sharing", etc. and then post the URL. The second is to create bait external links. Write some readable topics, submit the best content to large websites, and add your own external links to the articles. Then it is reprinted by others to achieve the purpose of sending external links. Compared to these two ways of sending external links, I prefer the second one. Why, first let’s analyze the pros and cons of these two methods.
First, the method of sending external links by casting a large net
advantage:
1. Fast. A big hand can send dozens of messages a minute.
2. The quantity increases quickly. Because this method of sending external links is relatively fast, hundreds or even thousands of external links can be posted in a short period of time. When Baidu updates, the number of external links will increase by hundreds or even thousands at a time.
3. Save trouble. You don’t need to use any brain cells, just open the forum blog and leave a few words like “Thank you for sharing” and “That’s a good summary” and that’s it.
shortcoming:
1. Collection is slow. This method of posting external links on forum blogs is relatively slow to be included, and the results will only be seen in about half a month.
2. Easily deleted. This method is easier to delete. If one day the blogger discovers it, or becomes unhappy and deletes it, the work of more than ten days will be in vain.
3. Poor quality. The quality of this kind of external links is not high, and it can only rely on quantity. Time and effect are definitely directly proportional. If you think about it, if you spend a few seconds doing something, you can imagine the quality.
4. It is difficult to publish websites that are relatively popular. There are tens of millions of industries, and so are websites. If you are responsible for websites in relatively common industries, such as accessories, design, decoration, advertising, etc., these websites are easy to publish. There are many such websites on the Internet. forums and blogs. If you are responsible, you might be in the machine tool category, electromechanical category, flower seller, or door seller. There is not much place to post this kind of thing, because there are very few such websites on the Internet, let alone dedicated forums and blogs. We all know that the best results are when posting external links on websites within the same industry, but the results are even worse if they are in unrelated industries.
Therefore, a conclusion can be drawn by comparing the advantages and disadvantages. This method of casting a large net can be applied to new sites. In the first month, you can post a balanced amount every day to increase the number of external links of the new site. However, this method is no longer suitable when the website's friend links reach a certain ranking.
Second, bait external links
advantage:
1. High quality. Such reprinted articles are generally found on websites and some forums, especially if they exist on websites, the quality will be better.
2. Long lasting. Once the submission is successful, the article will not be deleted for a long time, even for a year and a half, and will be reprinted intermittently. Maybe after five or six months, you will find that this article that lures external links will also bring external links to you.
3. External links will not increase or decrease significantly. The number of external links will be relatively balanced, because it is an active reprint, so it will generally not be deleted after reprinting, and the external links will be maintained for a relatively long time.
4. Fast collection. This kind of external links will usually be included in the collection within two or three days after the submission is successful today. If you check it, the number of external links will change significantly.
shortcoming:
1. The production time is slightly longer. It needs to be readable and have novel content, so it takes a long time to create an article, maybe one hour or two hours.
2. There will not be a large number of external links. Because it is reprinted one by one, the number of external links will not increase significantly in this way. Generally, it is normal to have more than a dozen or two links in a few days.
3. External links may not be left behind. People who know a little bit about SEO will remove the URL left behind when reprinting, so that even if it is reprinted, it will be of no use to us.
To sum up, this method is not suitable for use on new sites, but you can wait until the new site is a little more stable before adopting this method. Once time passes, it will be of great help to website rankings and data improvement. Since I personally prefer the second method, today I will share with you some of my experience in making your own decoy external links.
In fact, I wrote this article mainly because during this period of time, I was optimizing two new websites: a Kunming iPhone mobile phone and a Yunnan Jade website. I felt that the effect of sending external links was not satisfactory, so I started Making bait external links is a way to increase external links, and the effect is not bad. The number of external links also increased by thirty or forty within a few days. Today I queried a respective keyword and it was already ranked on the home page. It's not stable yet but it's a good sign. Okay, enough nonsense. Summarize the precautions for making bait external links.
First, the website you submit must be a website with high traffic
In this way, there will be more users browsing, and the chance of being reprinted will be high. There are two websites that I often invest in now, one is A5 and the other is Webmaster Home. The effect is very good. You can try it.
Second, the content must be novel and readable.
Now that you have decided to write, think more about it. Write something meaningful and don't just deal with it casually. You can write some of your own experiences, thoughts, etc.
Third, make good use of titles
Don’t use too mediocre titles. There are many articles refreshed every day on large websites. Ordinary titles can easily be ignored and buried. In this way, the number of reprints will be reduced. I personally think that the title must be novel, but not too "clickbait" because some websites do not approve of the title party, so it will not be easy to pass the review, so you have to control the degree.
Fourth, it is best to have pictures and texts
This is more intuitive, and more importantly, it is easier to be reviewed. Many websites prefer this way of writing articles. Haha, this can be adjusted slightly based on your own observations.
Fifth, the website should not be too short
This point also applies to auditing. Articles that are too short can be posted directly on the forum. It will be done in a few words, and I will not approve it. Write more content, but don’t compromise the quality of your article just to squeeze in a word count.
Sixth, clear organization and segmentation
The article must be formatted in a standardized and organized manner, with clearly divided paragraphs, and each point of view expressed must be listed. This makes the article easier to read.
Seventh, don’t be too greedy and add links everywhere.
Generally, large websites are only allowed to leave one original address at the bottom, so we should not be too greedy and insert as many links into the article as possible. Even if it is added, it will be deleted or rejected during review.
Eighth, browse more information and read other people’s articles to accumulate your own opinions.
I think that what I know is limited after all. After writing six or seven articles, I may feel that I have nothing to write. So this requires us to read more articles and accumulate more information. If you read more, you will get your own opinions on other people's content. When you need to use it, you can come up with an opinion, check the information, and an article will come out.
Summarize:
In short, for SEO, any method is more valuable than persistence. The same goes for making bait external links, and insist on submitting two or three articles every week. It’s not good that there will be nothing this week and nothing next week. As time goes by, you won’t even need to post external links. At the same time, you can also improve your ability to organize text and sort out your opinions. This method may be more troublesome and less effective in the short term. But it still has great benefits for the long-term development of the website. After all, if you put more thought and time into something, the effect will be incomparable to what others spend a few seconds on.
