Backlink Building - Is Article Writing Really Important For Backlink Building?

Believe it or not but backlink building is a program that you need to stick with in order to continue getting search engine optimization (SEO) by the search engines.

I'm pretty new to Affiliate Marketing but I've learned a lot about building quality and relevant backlinks. I've been getting OK traffic from my backlink building program and I wanted to test what would happen if I just stopped my backlink building.


I was amazed at what happened! It's really true what everyone says about how important backlink building is. I could plainly see what the affects where from the lack of fresh backlink building and how it was affecting my SEO. My SEO was going down the drain and fast! My traffic went to almost zero per day within a matter of just a few weeks.


So I suppose you could say that my test on the lack of backlink building has been a great success. I could physically see my traffic go from OK to just about zero in about three weeks.

There are a few things that are very clear to me now. They are

* Backlink building is a must for steady traffic
* Articles are very important when it comes to backlink building
* Quality relevant and relate articles are very important for SEO
* Commenting on relevant forums is necessary for backlink building
* Weekly if not daily fresh content is necessary for backlink building and SEO
* For highly effective backlink building, keyword research is very important


In my research I've come to understand that as I work on my backlink building that the quality of my article material isn't the only thing that is important but also where I publish it. If the article is of good quality, the article will be located on article directories AND on niche websites. The search engines love that and will increase my SEO.

I've learned that for search engine ranking I need to publish my articles with sites where other publishers look for quality articles to use in their own material. The search engines will rank the backlinks in these articles higher than they would when publishing with a less reputable publisher.

I hope what I have learned will also be of benefit to you. For continuous traffic to your Website stick with your backlink building program whatever it is that you may be doing. As I've learned, fresh, quality, relevant, and related material is a huge key when backlink building.
