Backlinks 5000

[dougguitar]

For those of you using 5000 Backlinks, I have a question. The most difficult part of it, for me, is finding a way to post to these sites in a "non-spammy way". Most of the sites have no connection whatsoever to the site I'm trying to build backlinks for.

I'd love to hear the approach you all are taking for getting your links into these forums, etc.

Thanks,
Doug

if that's the case, then you shouldn't post. A comment will most likely be deleted or not approved. You need to find sites where you can create value. Overall, I am finding that commenting on blogs found through Google reader is better than the 5000 links package.

90% of the blogs I comment on listed in the 5000 links pack seem to be no-follow. I have had success creating links using the site lists and creating profiles linking back to my sites.

And some of the PR8 and 9 you have to logged in to get 'somewhere'. But where do I put my backlinks to ex. http://www.mp3.com
this site ?

Thanks in advance. Kim

We're doing a complete update to the link package, so keep an eye out for that

On blog comments - you don't want to limit your backlink strategy to just that. The key to effective link building is variation. Definitely mix in some directories, article marketing, guest blog posts, forum signatures, etc.

On the nofollow/dofollow issue, Michelle MacPhearson did a test recently and got a brand new site indexed in Google with only nofollow links. A lot of people think the search engines don't follow nofollow links, but that's not the case. They are supposed to be used for not passing PageRank from page to page, but the search engines do still follow them.

See the Nofollow Attribute section in this Link Building 101 post.

Hi Kim,

On MP3.com you sign up for a free mp3 account
http://www.mp3.com/signup

It gives you a personal profile and blog, comment and post to the boards, etc.

What if I have a my link on a forum signature, but the forum is closed from outsiders. The forum has a very high ranking, but do I still get my PR from that particularly forum. Or does it have to open to the public ?

softlan,
Usually those types of forums are set up to not be spidered by Google so if that is the case (like Lynn's elite group) then no your signatures would not count when posting in the private side of the forum.

You're welcome

As for the backlink, are you asking how to create a forum signature here on this forum using a keyword phrase that links to another website kind of like I have done in my signature?

If so, you'll need to go to the top of the forum, click on user cp and then click on edit signature link on the left. You can then use html code to build your signature or I think you can also use the Insert Link at the top of the signature box.

Let me know what you need and I'll try to help further!
