How to Get High-Quality Backlinks

How to Get High-Quality Backlinks Starting Today (12 Unique Strategies)

Posted on September 10, 2020September 30, 2020 by Johnny Kims

In this post, I will be sharing with you 12 strategies on how to get high-quality backlinks for your site starting today.

First, we have to agree on the fact that high-quality Backlinks are a huge growth factor when it comes to securing success as a blogger.

How to Get High-Quality Backlinks

To make these strategies as easy to comprehend as possible, and so you can have a feeling of what to expect, I will first list them down.

If you come across one that you have heard before, check it out too because nomadicsense.com is a proud producer of 100% original content.

So, here are the 15 Strategies that you can employ to Get High-quality backlinks:

1. Create Link Worthy content to get high-quality Backlinks

Keep in mind that quality is what search engines love most; try and aim at giving them what they want, and always remember that quality content is king.

To better understand what link-worthy content is, let us break it down into two:

  • In-depth Content 

A well-researched article carries immense weight when it comes to securing your space in terms of authority.

Vast content source, the library

Make it your habit to publish in-depth, well-researched content. These will go a great way in ensuring you get those quality links you have always wanted.

  • Engaging Content 

Engaging content goes a long way in letting search engines discover your quality content.

Take this, for instance, Site A and B both have high quality and well-written articles. But, Site A has gone a further mile and made their piece of content easy to read and made it as engaging as possible.

Site A has created short and straight to the point sentences and paragraphs. Unlike Site B, which has both long sentences and paragraphs which are a bit tricky to comprehend.

Also, Site A uses around one photo for every 100 words in their 3000 words article, making it a total of thirty, high-quality engaging photos.

Site B has four photos in their entire 3000 words article.

Therefore, Site A retains its audience for an average time of 7 minutes, while Site B has an audience retention average time of 1:06 minutes.

A quick question, which one do you think will rank better and create opportunities to get high-quality backlinks?

You got that right, its Site A.

Therefore, engaging content, in one way or the other, is an important aspect that should never be ignored while in the search for quality links.

Check out this article where I mentioned that high quality, engaging content is also a major booster of quality traffic.

2. Guest Posting

Guest posting is also another great way on how to get high-quality backlinks.

It is also a great way to create awareness for your existence.

If you are just starting, do not feel intimidated, there are a couple of high-quality sites ready to offer you a chance to write for them.

You can use Google phrase shortcuts such as;

  • [topic keyword phrase] + “become a contributor”
  • [topic keyword phrase] + “write for us”
  • [topic keyword phrase] + “guest article”

After listing down the potential guest posting sites, send your pitch, fully customized to meet the site standards.

Always start by letting them know how they will benefit from that collaboration. Introduce yourself and briefly summarize what you intend to write on.

Here is a detailed resource on the guest blogging strategy by our friends at Optinmonster.

3. Help A Reporter Out (HARO)

HARO Home page

HARO is a Site developed solely to help reporters with their information gathering.

Reporters/journalists come to this site looking for stories or clarification of stories they already have.

Helping a reporter out is not only beneficial to them but also you, you get a link for every mention on stories you were a contributor.

To become a member at HARO, sign up first, it’s free.

Afterward, you will get three notifications daily into your inbox for questions relevant to your niche.

You can then Pitch to them and wait for the reporter to contact you.

4. Link To Brand Mentions

This tactic seems to me as the easiest to employ.

It only involves looking for your brand mentions and requesting to get a link on the same, obviously for those that do not link back to you.

Start by searching for brand mentions using a tool like Buzzsumo. Then, check for mentions that never got a Backlink.

After listing all that did not get a Backlink, initiate a communication with the relevant site, use a friendly tone to let them know;

  • You appreciate the mention.

  • Your reason for reaching out to them.

  • And, to let them know you also appreciate their work.

I like this strategy as it is one of the easiest, and it takes very little of your time too.

Here is a script from 99signals that you can use.

5. Testimonials

Testimonials to gain High-quality Backlinks

We all know that positive testimonials are a major factor when it comes to customers purchasing a product.

Giving testimonial to products you like can also become a link building strategy when it comes to link building.

The best way to do this is to give testimonials to the products you use and are a big fan of. Providing testimonials honestly and positively gives you a higher chance of being noticed.

This way, your testimonial can be showcased to customers either on the testimonials page or even on the homepage.

It is a win-win to both sides, you end up getting a Backlink too, and because the web is vast, it is also a good way to let people know you exist.

6. Provide Answers On Quora

Quora is a question and answer website. Here, users can either read or provide answers to questions in their niche.

Therefore, if this tactic is used in the right way, it can be a reliable source of good, traffic-generating backlinks.

To get started on Quora, you will first have to sign up on Quora, it is free. You can use your Facebook account to sign up or just fill in your e-mail and create a password. See below;

Quora Sign Up Page

Then, you can use the search bar to look for spaces that match your niche; for example, if I am in health and fitness I can just type in “Exercises for weight loss” and check for available spaces.

Quora Weight Loss Question On Search Bar

You can then later check for questions in your niche, and ones that you can comfortably answer. Answer them in the easiest way possible while at the same time providing quality answers.

For every quality answer you provide, you can add a link back to your content. This way you earn a Backlink, and you can gain a new audience to people interested in more from you.

7. Create Infographics

This type of content aims at representing data in a visual manner. Infographics are among the highly shared content formats online.

After creating a quality infographic, take your time to share it online.

By doing so, you let other bloggers, and content creators in your niche know of your infographic. Many will want to use it as it makes their content both visually attractive and engaging.

Every time your infographic is used, you will get a Backlink. But, if you come across your infographic without a backlink, you can always reach out to the user, and ask for one politely.

To create powerful Infographics, I recommend using free tools like Canva,

8. Use The Broken Rail Technique

Broken Rail Technique

Broken rail technique is a Search Engine Optimization term given to broken links rectification by Johnny Kims, the webmaster at Nomadicsense.com

This technique involves resolving broken links. Broken links result in a 404 error.

This type of error is not only unprofessional for that site but also bad for SEO.

Broken links are quite common, but finding them is almost impossible if you are going to do it manually. I use a chrome extension called SEO Minion.

SEO Minion Chrome Extension

Using this tool, you can check for broken links on sites you wish to acquire links from. In return, you can, in a friendly manner, recommend that they link back to your similar content.

By repeating this process over and over again, you can get high-quality backlinks from renowned sites easily.

9. Moving Man Method

Moving Man Method

It’s a technique by Brian Dean of Backlinko. It involves looking for links that no longer point to existing sites.

The reason for this type of error can either be as a result of a site shutting down completely or having its URL or Name changed.

This technique follows three steps:

   I.) Look for sites that have shut down, change their name / URL in your niche.

  II.) Check for sites linking to these sites

  III.) Reach out to site owners linking to these sites and let them know of their obsolete outbound link.

Use PRWeb to look for sites in your niche that have recently rebranded. You can also check for these rebranding sites on Google.

Once you have listed down these sites, Analyze them for Backlinks. I recommend using a tool like SEMrush, which makes link analysis amazingly easy.

Later, you can reach out to site owners letting them know of this error, in return, you can ask for a Backlink to similar content on your site in a friendly manner.

The moving Man Method Is explained further  Here.

10. Start A YouTube Channel

YouTube Channel

Here is another easy strategy for you to get high-quality backlinks, YouTube as a search engine continues to supply answers to millions of visitors daily.

Taking this into account, having/starting a YouTube channel is a key contributor to your thriving online.

For every video you upload, you can always add a link to more resources on your site. These, not only give you a Backlink but can also be a major source of quality traffic.

11. Feature A Competitor (BackRub Technique) On How to Get High-Quality Backlinks

BackRub Technique is an SEO term created by Johnny Kims, the webmaster at Nomadicsense. It involves complementing and describing in detail a competitor’s brand.

You can use the BackRub Technique to get high-quality backlinks. Also, this technique helps you build relationships, and social shares while at the same time gain influence in your niche.

It’s almost similar to brand mentions, the only difference is that this one is detailed and aims at catching a competitor’s attention.

If you write genuinely attractive content, competitors can link back to you or even go a step further and promote your content.

This technique is a win-win. A competitor gets his/her brand marketed while you, the marketer, get a Backlink.

12. Brand Promotion On Social Media

Social Media Icons

With proper promotion on social media, your chances of getting Backlinks are higher.

If you have good audience retention, the probability of having your content shared goes high too. The more sharable your content gets, the easier it is for you to get a Backlink.

More exposure interprets to more backlinks. But, your content must be good enough. That is, it conforms to the previous strategies we talked about above.

Among your link building techniques, always consider a strong social media sharing strategy.

Conclusion

“How to get high-quality backlinks?” is a question most bloggers and content creators keep asking. The easiest way to do this is the smart way.

So, what do I mean by that?

The smart way involves spying on your competitors’ link building techniques. I recommend you use SEMrush, a comprehensive link analysis tool.

This way, you can see how your competitor gets his/her backlinks. Just knowing this alone, and using this information in the right manner can greatly reduce your link building efforts.

Who knows, you might even outrank them on search results.

But, that isn’t the end, you can also buy high-quality backlinks on Accessily. 

Accessily enables you to select only the best sites in your niche by allowing you to choose the best. Both in terms of Domain Authority and traffic.
