In search Engine Optimization link building or off page factors are one of the important things for achieving good results in the serps. But just getting any off topic links isn’t enough these days, what you want are relevant links. Links that are fined tuned, with your keyword within the anchor tags.
I would even go a step further say having a nice article written about your website with anchor links sprinkled throughout the site can go along way in helping you up the serps.
I don’t know I would consider this post grey hat or black hat, but I doubt this trick I use, is what you may call white hat.
I call this Link Building trick the trojan Content Management ,this is how I’ve done it
1. Create a fairly advance CMS (A simple one im sure will work as well) with poor documentation and badly written code so the average downloader would have little or no idea and even find it too much headache to modify.
2. The downloaded version once extracted and uploaded contains a section that talks about where on the web the CMS has been used, obviously you say it has been used on your site, create a highly optimized page that link to you
3. Now here is the cool part, within the CMS write a script that tells you where your CMS has been uploaded. Mines just simply emails me the url of any new CMS installation.
4. Create a back door to get into your CMS incase you need to make any adjustment to you highly optimized page.
5. After about 2months or so, if your cms is still uploaded, you can change the whole site to the same theme as yours.
This is what happens, after you create your software and submit it to the many software directories, you find that CMS are one of the heavily downloaded scripts for web masters looking to help with websites updates, but what happens which is something I’m sure everyone is guilty of is
After you download and upload a piece of crap software you tend to leave it in the folder in which you install it
And this is what happens 100 of downloaded CMS, on different IPs, Different Host, Different Countries with highly optimised pages. And because I know where they are, I just make google find them by linking to them from my other network of sites.
