Article submission, and how to build backlinks for Ecommerce? [HELP]
-
Hi guys,
I have a question, for high quality backlinks apparently you go to these article websites where you submit your site such as Ezine etc etc, however is it just one article you submit to these as it'll look like duplicate content? Also can I have it on my site first?
How does it work?
Also I run an ecommerce website, how can I build backlinks to each product, theres over 200+ products and 1.6k subcategories.
I would like to rank for as many as possible but getting an SEO company to do this would cost to much. Any ideas on how I should go about it?

ezine et al are much less effective nowadays. its all about going for articles on quality sites that aren't easy to get on. ANYONE can get an article on ezine and similar sites.

Do Press Releases
-
Build Infographics and share them on Twitter, facebook, google plus and pintrest
-
Submit Guest Post
-
Create video content of your products and share it to sites likes youtube, vimeo and etc, and if you can give a voice over product description in the video it would be great.
-
Use Tools like OSE and check where your competitors are getting linked from and try to get linked from those sites. If the sites are spammy, don't get linked with them
Best of Luck..

I think that you answered your own question,
If there is a doubt there is no doubt..Here are some practical tips for contnet link bulding:
1. create usefull articles - not the boring same old things that everyone are doing. dig in and reaserch to find out what users really want and then give it to them.
2. publish your content in one (!) resource - make sure that it is original and not copyed (especially not from your own website) - you can use copyscape.com for that.
3. after your article is live on the web you should link to it from tweeter, facebook, bookmarks, forums and other articles you publish later on. If your article is really good you can also contact blogers to write or mention it.
4. link to inner pages (products?) - not just your home page.
The bottom line is that you can not get high quality links with low quality work - you really need to put the effort in to it.
Good luck!

With posting to multiple article sites, just make sure you post under the same author name. That way you wont be viewed as duplicating content.
The effectiveness of this kind of linking isn't that great though, your better off putting great content on your own site and making sure its shareable on sites like Google plus and Facebook.
Is their any way on your site of adding articles to a page that then pulls in the items you have for sale based on the article? That way at least you would have a relevant landing pages for linking to.

to be honest Ezines are going to yield smaller results, you really only want to target the big ezine websites which are high quality and indexed by Google news.
In regards to what other strategies you should use to build backlinks for your ecommerce site some good posts can be found here:

I would look at using more of the above methods over lower quality article submissions

SSL Importance For Backlinks
I am trying to build some good quality backlinks, how important is SSL for the site that we post guest blogs on? I realize that if a site does not have SSL currently, their DA will likely not go up very fast because of Google's new algorithms, but currently, I am looking at a couple sites with a DA of 40 and 41. By the way, my site has SSL (is https). Thanks!

Help with ranking
Hi Board users! I have a site that I don't understand why its not ranking. Its called JohnnyJet.com It has great domain authority and plenty of links. Looking at google webmaster tools I don't think there is a penalty. I have not done black hat stuff, so I am puzzled. I have a subdomain that stores some of my old content (some of it is duplicate) http://vintage.johnnyjet.com/home.asp The site has been around for ever, and I need help with a site audit to see what it is that I am missing. I know my long tail should rank much better. 2 questions: 1. Can you guys (board members) send me any insights if you take a peek 2. Can you tell me where to go to get an in-depth audit on my site -- I need a deep dive to get to the bottom of this 🙂 Thanks all!!

How/Why do I have so many Spam backlinks?
I was looking in GWT yesterday and found we have several thousand "spam" backlinks...I am curious why this happens and how this happens? There are some links from websites/domains that are not mine that appear to be spam. However, we own a large group of domains and have noticed some of the links are coming from 2 of those sites/domains we own to my main site. The sites/domains are not active, we just own them. I am wondering how someone could access these domains that are not active and create spammy backlinks to my main website? (They created about 20,000 links). Thanks.

Dentist office website has foreign country backlinks. Scrap it or Move On
Another SEO person who was working my potential dental customer website managed to hookup over 147 backlinks to various bogus weather sites, watch sites, chinese sites etc. The dentist owns the URL which is "dentist" plus his zipcode. Is it worth continuing SEO on this site or should I scrap the URL? I am worried that Google may take action on this site sometime in the future and all the work I will do will be lost. He does have another website, because SEO's keeps trying to sell dentists microsites... This site isn't too bad but he doesn't own the URL but the url is a combination of the two doctors names and isn't easy to remember... and we would have to spend time trying to gain control of the URL. Suggestions?
