You’ve probably heard a million times that content is king in SEO. Duh. You’d have nothing to rank if you didn’t have content.

But content is where most people stop. Build a site with great content, then request indexing in Google Search Console and expect traffic to start rolling in. 

If you’re serious about ranking sites, you need to get serious about link building. That’s one of the best ways to get from mediocre to dangerously good at SEO.

Taking it one step further:

You can’t just rely on one or two strategies like guest posts or niche edits. Your approach should leverage multiple strategies to acquire links.

Speaking of strategies, one that often gets overlooked or dismissed as “shady” is forum and community link building. 

When handled correctly, forums can be a great source of authoritative links that drive highly targeted traffic straight to you.

For example, if you had a site about raising chickens, a link from this forum would be incredibly valuable:

And get this: not all forums are just spam hubs. Thousands of niche forums are filled with real discussions where links cost 10x less of what you'd pay for a guest post.

The main problem with building links is that it can be extremely time-consuming and hit-or-miss. I personally hate the process and would much rather offload it to someone reliable so I can focus on other activities.

If you’re the same way, today’s sponsor will be a lifesaver.
