You hear it all the time, "Build back links to your web pages - and be sure to use optimized anchor text!"
When you're new, that can sound like a bunch of mumbo-jumbo, can't it?
Why Do We Need BackLinks?
Here's a little secret about Google....
Google, the search engine, is pretty much just one big ol' popularity contest. Google ranks web pages according to many factors (over 200, to be exact), but one of the most important factors is the popularity of your web page.
What makes your web page popular? OTHER web pages linking to YOUR web page.
The words someone uses as anchor text to link to your web page are like a vote for your web page to rank for that phrase. This is why it is important to use "optimized anchor text" for your back links.
In short, 'optimized anchor text' means being sure that the words you want to rank in Google for are used as the clickable words of a link TO your web page.
What you do ON your web page is only about 20% of the battle of ranking highly in Google.... the rest is found within the things that happen OFF your web page and all over the internet.
The "secret" to ranking higher for your chosen keywords is to make sure you have more "votes" (back links) to YOUR web page than the other web pages showing for that search do.
How Many Backlinks Do YOU Need? The answer to that question is different for everybody. Each and every Google search is a different market. However, I would say it is safe to shoot for one more backlink that the #1 ranking web page for your search ;)
To get your web page (article, lens, blog post, etc etc) to rank highly, you have to get out there on the web and vote for yourself =)

"Get Unlimited Supply Of High PR Backlinks And Laser Targeted Traffic From Major Bookmarking Sites... All Done In Minutes On Autopilot!"
Dear Friend,
before we start, I want to tell you something straightaway.
I hate Web Promotion. I hate it more than you do, and I always have.
Web promotion is all about getting links and traffic to sites. You can build one million quality sites but with no proper web promotion, you will never see money coming in.
Most web promotion tactics have one thing in common - trying to rank high in search engines results. In the old fashion days, I loved to submit my sites to hundreds of link directories. It worked like magic until the search engines changed their algorithms.
Then the next big thing was Blog and Ping. It was one of the most powerful web promotion system. I could easily get my pages indexed in a couple of hours and rank high in search engines.
But once again, the search engines saw this coming and as a result it is now very difficult to rank one's websites on search engines, based on Blog and Ping.
Article submission is one of the methods I used. However, though it is still a very effective traffic generating tactic, it is also very time consuming.
I spent thousands on SEO tools and even hired an SEO expert. I spent hours doing Search Engine Optimization on-site and off-site. I did see some traffic now and then but the figures were not something i am proud of.
I was at the mercy of the search engines and was spending more time and money than I could earn!
I was desperate for a real traffic generating solution. I needed to be able to get traffic fast! To my luck, I found the very answer to my web promotion pain.
"With Social Bookmarking, You Can Tap Into An Unlimited Supply Of Targeted Traffic
And High Quality Backlinks For Free!"
You might have heard all the buzz about the term Social Bookmarking.
What is Social Bookmarking & Why is it so powerful and different from other web promotion tactics?
Social Bookmarking websites are basically sites that categorize and store 'bookmark links' (links which take one to a specific website). Millions of visitors flood these Social Bookmarking sites to search for information.
So the idea of bookmarking is to post links back to your web page from these Social Bookmarking websites. You need to specify some keywords (we call them TAGS) which categorize your bookmark.
This allows others to search and even vote for your bookmark. Social Bookmarking is in a league of its own because of its ability to generate traffic by sharing links.
Let's see what some benefits of Social Bookmarking are .

Diane Hochmann and Gary Vaynerchuk – Diane Hochman and Gary Vaynerchuk
By human nature we get frustrated easily. It’s a quite common characteristic of being human. Each of us has goals (at least I sure hope you do) which we strive to achieve in a certain time of our lives. Maybe it’s buying a fancy car, paying off your credit card debt, road tripping across country. Whatever your goals are, keep pushing forward to reach them.You will hit obstacles, challenges, bumps and road blocks but if you act like a cockroach (as Diane Hochman explained), you’ll find a way around to get to the destination. And, Diane has also helped teach that you don’t have to make it complicated or have it perfect to get it started.
The main point I want to make is ‘Don’t give up before you start’. What I mean by that is to realize your business, goals, dreams and success take time, plain and simple. You could work for 24 weeks on your website, spreading the word about the service for sale only to make a handful of actual sales. Do you give up? No. All that time you’ve spent for 24 weeks would be a waste, right? How do you know the success of the site is not simply 2 weeks away because you haven’t advertised on a certain website yet? You don’t.
Someone I’ve loved listening to, Gary Vaynerchuk, spent a couple years building his internet-based Wine show before it picked up steam. Now…he’s doing extremely well with a huge book deal, thousands and thousands of fans, speaking at events, and so on. You see, all the hard-work he continually spent on his brand for those initial years is and will continue to pay off for the rest of his life and business.
That being said, please make your own judgement calls. Maybe a certain business is simply not worth spending 2 years trying to build – that I can’t tell you without knowing lots of details. However, do not give up too easily or too early. There is no doubt in my mind that Gary smiles when he goes to sleep thinking to himself “I knew my hard work would pay off”. OK, maybe not that thought exactly…but you get the picture.
Personally, I’ve seen some great things happen with my business. Had I given up after a few months of trying to grow them, I’d continue to struggle and struggle…and struggle. Whatever you do, be passionate and ready to give it plenty of time, and hard work. Set your mind. Focus. Do whatever you can to make it happen.
