what are the best backlinks to build for free?
Thanks a lot

This is also a good answer if you already have the traffic! (my point of view). Thanks

Thanks a lot James! I dint know that you can use the whois tool to find them . I was trying to find them from the contact forms but nobody replied most of times! Thumbs up!

Keep in mind that the best links take some effort. They may not be paid links, but you will still need to spend time in creating good content that will naturally gather links, or in spending time to find relevant sites to contact. There is no sustainable free lunch out there.

Agree with James. Looks at your competitors in OSE and analyse their backlinks.
Kindly ask the web masters for a backlink to your related site. Make sure you don't just ask for the link, kindly point out why their site should point to yours as a source of reference on a particular topic.

My best backlinks came to me. I wrote great content and somehow a couple universities thought it would help their students. And guess what? The links were FREE (my favorite four-letter-word). LOL

The best back links you can build for free is where you find a list of resources on a highly authority website you then find the who is data of the website and call them up or you email them.
For example you find a list of information with only 4 links on a government website, you can then contact the web master and ask if they will add your related link.
My advice to find these links is to use open site explorer and to scan competitors for high authority links or use the Link Analysis Tools.

Trading Backlinks a good idea?
New to the "backlinking" party. Wondering if its 'good practice' to trade links with other websites within a like-industry. We've been receiving a lot of emails from other websites asking us to trade links. Is this a good link building practice anymore? Thanks!

SEO value to Reddit backlinks?
Can someone point me to an authoritative article on the value of Reddit links? I'm trying to determine if it's something we want to put effort into doing on a regular basis. Are reddit links followed? It seems like some are and some are not.

What is the best way to seek out good incoming links?
I get "form letter" type requests for links all the time from companies whose product has absolutely no relationship to mine. I always decline them. But I really want to build up link juice, and I'm wondering how to begin. Is the "form letter" all right to send or should it be more personal? I sell tablecloths; I assume I should go to home decor companies? Thanks in advance!

Starting My First Backlink Campaign
Hi Team, I've started my first campaign and would like some advice on building backlinks. I have got the no. 1 competitor's backlinks through OSE. Here is the first backlink URL as mentioned in OSE. for them: www.uofaemergency.org/ (DA: 45 PA:44) However the backlink appears on another page of that domain, not on the homepage as it says in OSE. That backlinking page as a PA of just 1. Do I go for the homepage or the page on which the competitor's backlink appears? It is an unrelated site to the niche and the content in which the link appears is nonsensical. Does this matter as far as link juice is concerned? Is this a good site or page to get a link from? How do I go about getting an in content anchor text link from this site? What's the required process? I would like to start buidling good links asap and start to get rankings for my site. Thanks. Sunil.

What is the best wording you have seen in an outreach email?
We all get them and most of them are rubbish, very few of them have taken the effort to find out who they are emailing. So making it personal and doing some research first is essential but what about the wording of the email... can you share examples you like & that have had more success for you than others?
