\nHow do I get backlinks?<\/h2>\n
\n
\n<\/strong>There are several providers on the market where you can buy links<\/a> From. Note that providers typically offer links from both high and low authority websites. The price will usually increase in line with the authority. Therefore, do not always choose the cheapest links.<\/li>\n
\n<\/strong>Contact a blogger to create a sponsored blog post that contains a link to your website. For example, it could be a product review with a link that links to the product on your webshop so that visitors can easily find where they can buy the product.<\/li>\n
\n<\/strong>If you create good content on your website, you can earn backlinks without having to work for it. This could be through a blog post on your own website in which you provide tips and tricks. If you do this, you have a greater chance that people will want to link to it for free. For example, you may have blogged about delicious appetizers for the New Year. On a forum, someone searches for inspiration for this and another user posts your link as help.<\/li>\n
\n<\/strong>You can also ask your business partners to link to each other. Just don't link to the same sites you link to and from, as Google will be able to see through such a maneuver.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n7 great link building tips<\/h2>\n
\n
\n<\/strong>Links from websites that have high domain authority in Google's eyes are more valuable than links from websites with low or mediocre authority.<\/li>\n
\n<\/strong>Strive to acquire dofollow links as Google generally does not follow nofollow links. If you see that a website has given you a nofollow link, ask what it would take to change it to a dofollow.<\/li>\n
\n<\/strong>Text links have higher value than image links. Google has an easier time understanding what the link is about when it is text-based.<\/li>\n
\n<\/strong>In addition to the above, it should be mentioned that links that are relevant for readers to click on are often assigned a higher value - for example, in a blog post, a help article or similar.<\/li>\n
\n<\/strong>Don't just think about getting links to your front page. It's not necessarily your front page that needs more links. Instead, choose the pages on your website that are relevant to the page being linked from. Remember that traffic often follows a link and the visitors that come through must be received by a relevant page in relation to the topic being linked from.<\/li>\n
\n<\/strong>Links from websites that work in the same industry\/topic as your website have a higher value as they are considered more relevant links. For example, a link from a horse portal to a horse equipment store will have a higher value than if a food recipe forum linked to the horse equipment webshop.<\/li>\n
\n<\/strong>If you choose to swap links with a business partner or others, don't swap straight across. In other words, don't link to and from the same pages - it doesn't provide the same value as if the pages linked to and from are unique. For example, don't link to your partner's skirt page if that's what he\/she links from.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
