Think I'm ready to do some link building. Couple questions.

Getting ready to do some link building.
I've got several lists of competitors' links, including a bunch of sites with broken links that would be a great fit to link to us.
I've got a capable VA to get started work on reaching out to people.
Just curious if this is the right game plan, seems a little simple:
For this round of link building I'm thinking all the links would point to my root domain.
-Find quality sites/links to go after
-Find an email to the owner/webmaster
-Have the VA send them a value proposition email(i.e. why it's good fit for all)...or tell them about broken links etc.
-Follow up myself when a response is generated.
-Hope/verify they link to us.
Thanks for the help with the newbie questions.
-
Sorry for the late response, still getting use to the Q&A and didn't know how to view the questions I had answered.
I would suggest anchor texts that are natural but nothing too unrelative. Links like www.example.com as the anchor text will still be better than "click here".
As long as its not being spammed too much, it would be fine to request a certain anchor text, but nothing obsessive, try to keep it even.
-
Thanks Roberto,
I'll check into those, was planning on just using excel. Those tools may be well worth it though.
-
Thanks Willny, was planning on just trying to get links to the homepage and let the Webmaster put whatever anchor text they wanted.
Is that a bad idea? Or should I specify what anchor text I want? I figured 'natural' was not suggesting anything.
-
Great, much thanks for the help!
-
That sounds great and will help you target potential webmasters.
-
That's always the question right?:) In my opinion the site has very high quality data.
-If they would link to Wikipedia about an article on Neurosurgery then they should link to our interview with a neurosurgeon. www.jobshadow.com/interview-with-a-neurosurgeon
-It's real information from real people doing the jobs, i.e not a journalist's rendition.
-It should be of benefit to their readers. If I was reading their site and followed a link on to mine I would say 'hey man, thanks for linking to that. That was cool, I'll come back to your site more if you keep linking to great info like that'.
Obviously I'm biased though:).
Is that enough? Or do I need a lot more?
-
Why should they link to YOU?
-
I agree with willny. You might want to take a look at Ontolo.com and buzzstream.com. I used them for my link building strategies. Make sure you personalize your emails and provide them value.
-
Congrats on starting your link building strategy. It seems great and you should keep in mind not to create to many same anchor texts or not natural type of anchor texts or links. We can see that this seems to be a problem in a larger scale with penguin updates.

Link building - unique root domains
Hi there, I was wondering when asking for a link, does where on this page it is? For example will someone's high traffic website (e.g. example.com ) provide more page authority than another link on this site ( e.g. example.com/blog ). If this is the case, is it best to get links from multiple pages if possible or will this not effect SEO? Thanks

Best Methods - Link Building
We are having more and more "new" customers coming to us who have been hit by various algorithms imposed by google. After we have run a site health check and corrected everything, we plan and come up with a link development plan which suits the clients needs. Much of out link development work is safe comprising of; 1. Guest Blog Posts - where we develop creative content with the customer to publish. 2. Industry blog posts - where bloggers write about i.e. "the company" 3. Social media - posting pictures, commenting on forums, etc 4. Paid directories with authority We don't develop links in any other way and it brings results in the long term. Is anyone out there doing something else? Link building can sometimes be like walking on a tight rope. Thanks and happy holidays Gary - Elite Group Marketing London

Link building when your domain name is your head term.
Hello, I am working with a company that their domain name is the same as the head term. For example, if I was going for the head term coffee, and my site was coffee.com. This is specifically in the medical space, and i'm competing directly with Web MD and The Mayo Clinic, my advantage on the term is the EMD. We have a legitimate site with thousands of pages of relevant content, and I am starting a guest blogging campaign on relevant health sites. My real challenge is when I go for anchor text links should I ideally go for [head term] or [headterm.com] as the anchor text. Thanks in advance for your insights Zach

India and Link Building
A client of mine has decided to work all Link Building through an India team that she's used for a few years. The problem that I'm having with this situation is that the link building list below contains quite a few 0/10 PR websites, spam websites, and websites that have no direct relation to the client's industry. Am I wrong in thinking that link building should be done to high PR, authoritative sites that are related the the client's industry? The link below will take you to the Google Doc that contains all links built for this client. I would love it if someone could take a look at that list and tell me what they think. Is this recipe for disaster or great link building? https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4a0JOKKFu0SUFZRbFRBNUZJekE Thank you so much!!!

Hiring a Company for Link Building
I am considering hiring a company to help develop link building for our websites. It is just too time intensive for me and I would like someone with experience to do it. So. . .what are the things I should ask of this company to make sure they know what they are doing and will do it in an ethical manner? What are some things I should make sure that they will NOT do with the links? Any guidance you have on what I should tell the company would be helpful.

Link building software
Does anyone know of any software that will build links if I enter the URL in? I know this sounds silly but I had to ask... I know ontolo is good to discover which links you need based on a key word and I know the SEOmoz tools do the same. My question is that is there any software that you can then enter all the links you have found and acquire them, Thank you for your answers. I really appreciate it. Vijay
