			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With feed aggregation and social networking sites it&#8217;s becoming easier and easier to get completely automated backlinks to your website.  Of course although this method is completely automated, it does require a bit of busy work to setup in the beginning.  The good thing is, once you&#8217;ve signed up to a few websites (the more the merrier) the more backlinks will be created for your blog (or any website you have that has a feed).</p>
<p>If you are familiar with wordpress widgets like <em>WP to Twitter</em>, then you&#8217;ll know how this method works.  The difference is, you will be using one website to manage <em>up to</em> hundreds of microblogging sites that are <em>Dofollow</em>.  That means that you get a backlink on every one of the social networking sites you sign up for, every single time you update your blog!<a href="http://blogdub.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/identica_1320x1000_rgb.gif"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-97" title="identica" src="http://blogdub.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/identica_1320x1000_rgb.gif" alt="" width="400" height="303" /></a></p>
<p>If you know anything about identi.ca, which I wrote a post on about a week ago.  You&#8217;ll know that it is dofollow and it&#8217;s a great tool for getting backlinks to your website.  Identi.ca runs on a software called &#8216;Status.net&#8217; and there are several other sites that run on the same software.  So anyways, now I&#8217;ll get to the part where I explain exactly how you can get backlinks from each of these websites automatically.</p>
<ol>
<li>Here is a <a href="http://status.net/wiki/ListOfServers" target="_blank">large list of microblogs</a> running on the status.net software.  Scroll through the list and sign up for as many of the sites as you&#8217;d like, like I said earlier the more the merrier.  Each site you signup for will can&#8217;t as a new backlink from a different site, they are mostly all run by different people with different IPs.</li>
<li>Now signup for twitterfeed.com:  Add your blog feed, and then add in all of the accounts you made on the various microblogging websites.  When choosing from &#8216;available services&#8217; pick <strong>laconica</strong>, that is the default name for the sites running the &#8217;status.net&#8217; software.  This makes it so that every time you write a new post on your blog twitterfeed will automatically update all of your microblogging accounts.</li>
<li>And honestly it&#8217;s as simple as that, you can create as many accounts as you please&#8230; or you could stick to just 1 account per site and still get a pretty large amount of backlinks.</li>
</ol>
<p>Good luck linkin&#8217; up dawgs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is a large multitude of ways to build links to your website,  but different link building strategies work differently for each kind of  website you are promoting.  Some links will get you more traffic than  others, some links will get you more pagerank/SEO than others, but in  most cases a link to your website is a good thing!  In this post I will  go over 10 random ways that you could use to build links to your  website.  You can determine how valuable each type of link is, and  although you&#8217;ll probably know some of these methods for building links,  hopefully at least one of them will be helpful to you.</p>
<p>1. Upload youtube videos and include a link to your website in the  description:  This definitely depends on the type of website you are  running, entertainment based websites work the best.  It all depends on  how many people enjoy viewing what you&#8217;re uploading to youtube, how well  you brand the video, and how relevant your website is.  This method  works whether you run an entertainment site or a product review blog,  you just have to make sure and go about things in a smart/entertaining  or informative way.</p>
<p>2. Comment on very old Digg articles:  These are really valuable  dofollow links, in fact; I can still trace back to some of the digg  articles I&#8217;ve commented on from a year ago.  Digg pages have high pr,  and although you won&#8217;t get a lot of traffic from a link on an article  that most people won&#8217;t be reading any more, you will get some good link  juice for SEO purposes with this link building method.</p>
<p>3. Google a Dofollow blog directory, pick a niche related to your  website, and then comment on some articles leaving a link back to your  site.  Do Follow blog comments are a great way to get a little bit of  traffic and PR.  When you comment someone&#8217;s blog, they are likely to  check out what website their commentor is coming from, and if it&#8217;s a  popular blog other readers will follow your link back to your website.   You could get some new readers by commenting on blogs in the same niche  as yours, and move up the ranks in the Search Engines.</p>
<p>4. Directory Submissions:  This is one of the oldest linkbuilding  techniques in the book.  You could either submit to paid directories  like Romow.com or go to a site like addurl.nu and submit to the hundreds  of free directories.  Either way, when you submit to directories you  will mainly be working on your Pagerank and SEO.</p>
<p>5. Ping your Website/Blog:  There are tons of auto pinging websites  out there nowadays that make pinging your website take like 5 seconds.   It doesn&#8217;t exactly get you a link from each of the sites you are  pinging, but sometimes you do get a backlink, and new pages of your  website get indexed in the search engines faster when you ping popular  services.  Like Technorati for example.  Some autopinging sites include;  Pingler, pinggoat, auto pinger.  Just Google it!</p>
<p>6. Add your link to your social profiles:  This is pretty obvious,  whenever you join a website that asks you for your homepage url, put  your website there.  You are allowed to add links to your profile in  Digg, Twitter, Reddit, and tons of other social bookmarking sites.  Not  to mention the fact that you can use the social bookmarking sites  specifically to add your articles to their website.  You can also put  your homepage links on the front page of your profiles in facebook, or  the about me section of Myspace.  Be creative, create bulletins or post  notices linking to your website.  Links like that are good for traffic.</p>
<p>7. Answer questions on Yahoo Answers:  Search for unanswered  questions on yahoo answers, and put your website in the &#8217;source site&#8217;  section when you answer questions.  The more relevant the question, the  more valuable the reader.  Although if you get &#8216;best answered&#8217; to a  really popular question you could see quite a bit of traffic coming in  for a long time.  I&#8217;m not sure whether or not Yahoo Answers is Dofollow  or Nofollow, but I&#8217;m going to assume it&#8217;s Nofollow and still say it&#8217;s  useful.</p>
<p>8.  Guest post on other people&#8217;s blogs.  If you have a friend that  owns a website or blog, write a post on his website for free in exchange  for a link back to your website.  That&#8217;s an easy traffic/PR boost  depending on how much authority the website your guest posting on has.</p>
<p>9. Join forums and get active posting in topics related to your  niche.  Sometimes you can take excerpts from guides or resourceful posts  you&#8217;ve written and post them as a new topic on a forum.  When you do  that you can leave a link back to your website and if people find your  post interesting they will finish reading it on your website.  To take a  more subtle approach you could just add your link to you forum  signature.  In that case, the more posts you have the better!</p>
<p>10. The holy Grail of Blackhat link building software is another  option for building links.  You can try purchasing XRUMER, which costs  at least a few hundred dollars, but is very capable of earning you a  PR-2 or PR-3 with one run of the program.  I&#8217;m not sure exactly how it  works as I have never tried it, but I&#8217;ve heard some great reviews and  I&#8217;m going to try and get my hands on it as soon as possible <img src='http://blogdub.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> .</p>
<p>So anyways, that&#8217;s my list of ways to build backlinks to your  website.  Not to unique, but that&#8217;s what my &#8216;full method&#8217; posts are  for.  So anyways, good link building links to your websites guys.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is a method that could be used to get as many high PR do-follow links from digg as you&#8217;d like.  It&#8217;s easy, it&#8217;s free, and it&#8217;s a great way to build up your site&#8217;s ranking without too much risk.</p>
<ol>
<li>Signup for a new account on digg, this way you don&#8217;t risk your main account getting banned for spamming.  Although you will only be spamming on very old digg topics to remain under the radar, and keep the focus on Digg&#8217;s aged/high ranking inner pages.</li>
<li>Now go to either the front page of digg, or choose a category relevant to the link you are going to be promoting.</li>
<li>Make sure you are looking at &#8220;Popular&#8221; articles rather than &#8220;Upcoming&#8221; articles.  Then click on the link in the top right to view the most popular articles from 365 days ago.  This will ensure that you are looking at some old articles that have had an opportunity to age and build ranking.</li>
<li>Now simply comment on the article with your link.</li>
<li>Then, go to an autopinging website like; pingoat, pingler, autopinger, or etc&#8230; Just do a google search for an autopinging service and I&#8217;m sure quite a few will show up.  Ping the digg article that you just commented on, it will notify these websites that the page has been updated and SEs will find your link faster.  (Which means you get a backlink faster).</li>
</ol>

<p>I didn&#8217;t make this up, and I&#8217;d like to give credit where credit is due.  I read about this about a year ago though and I don&#8217;t remember who it was that outted the method.  I figure bringing back some of the old stuff is good, I don&#8217;t think many people are using this method currently!</p>
