Comments on: Backlinks (RQR Basics) http://imimpact.com/backlinks-rqr-basics/ Marketing That Leaves a Mark Thu, 09 Feb 2012 20:24:32 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Shane http://imimpact.com/backlinks-rqr-basics/#comment-2248 Shane Sat, 02 Jan 2010 07:14:15 +0000 http://imimpact.com/?p=418#comment-2248 Thanks, Sire. :) Getting "real" backlinks from people actually recommending your site or specific posts is certainly ideal. And it's also something that will probably never be de-valued by search-engines. Anything where you're promoting your own site could become near-useless with the next algo-update (as soon as enough moronic spammers are doing it, you're in trouble). Having said that, backlink building does still work very well for getting ranked and I just try to have a simple, not-too time consuming system and sticking to it. It helps my pages get to where they deserve to be in the SERP. ;) Thanks, Sire. :)

I know that there are a lot of people who try lots of ways to get backlinks, but I sometimes wonder if it's all worth the effort. Personally I think it's best to concentrate on writing good content in the hope people like it enough to link to it. As to Google, I gave up on them long ago. Considering that no-one knows how Google works and then when you think you have finally worked it out they change their algorithms, what's the point? Hey Shane, pretty good post mate.
