Site Building and Link Building Diary – Part 5

Well it’s been a while since I’ve posted, and I figured it was time for another update .  My goal over the last few weeks has been to write new content and link to quality/authority sites in each of my niches.  I have also been actively representing my sites on forums, bulletin boards, blogs, and any other site that allows for user feedback to gain links and authority from the search engines.

Let’s see how we’re doing on backlinks and visitors compared to the previous numbers:

Remember, don’t lose hope!  The most important thing now is to stay consistent in your efforts because it shows the search engines that you’re commited and it keeps your site’s growth steady.  Stay Tuned for my final report on each site, including some of the sites and tactics I used to create and find new backlinks for each site, as well as build and grow each site.

  • Consistency that is the key, I'm trying to form the habit of writing 2 articles a day spending time on building backlinks.

    You just need to keep that faith that your efforts will pay off.

  • I agree, but more than consistency is the need to write things down like you have a keep track of the trends over time. Good idea!
  • I'm new to blogging and my site is barely a month old and the majority of traffic have been from forums. Now I have been checking out other blogs for link exchange etc which seems to be increasing my traffic.

    BTW: found your site via http://iamkraze.com from a comment you made.

    Consistency over time in link building for your website will help to build results. Even if you're just building links to your website at a rate of one per day, over the course of a month, you will have 30 quality links. Keep up the good work!
