The importance of backlinks to your site is of course search engine results. Backlinks are links from other website going into your site. The more relevant sites linking to you, the more popular your site will appear to search engines. This is a critical component to optimization. Here are a few tips for getting more backlinks to your site
Post comments in other blogs. When you add a comment in a blog and when you add your blog's URL a new backlinks is created, but try to post comments only in those somehow related to what your blog is about, don’t start posting in each blog you find out there. Contribute with the community, that´s what the blogging business is all about.
Submit to directories. There are a lot of free web directories on the web now and there are an equal number of sites that list free web directories.Here are some directories you might want to try.
Link Exchange. It is important that you exchange links only with related sites. If a site has nothing to do with your site a reciprocal backlink from it will serve little to no purpose. Post an entry and let people know that you are open for link exchanges.
Join forums. And contribute posting comments, use your URL as your signature, try to participate in the hottest threads, don’t start posting comments without content just to get backlinks because it is probably that your entry will be deleted by a moderator.
Link Baiting. If you don’t know what this means, it is when you write a controversial or a very interesting post or article that catches the attention of a large audience that wants to blog about that, this is going to generate automatic free backlinks. Write a creative post, this kind of links are very important because people are choosing to link to you, what gives your blog an extra value.
Submit articles. If you know a lot about something write an article for free distribution, or for reprint, and submit it to free article directories.
All of these tactics take time but are all worthwhile. Good luck!
