One of the most crucial factors that will influence search engines for your website is the quantity and quality of your backlinks. Nearly every search engine will give a lot of weight to backlinks when they evaluate and rank your web pages. The number is important but quality is even more important. One high quality link is worth a hundred poor ones.

I will reveal a few tips that may help you reach the coveted SERPs (search engine results pages) by creating backlinks.

Have you ever wondered about why these backlinks are so important to search engines? Basically it's because the search engines like sites with rich informative content and links count like votes for your site. They view it as another site recommending you so when you have loads of them they view your site as valuable and worthwhile. The more votes you have the more weight you carry with search engines. Backlinks are indeed your best SEO strategy.

Here are some techniques for getting backlinks:

Forums – Forum Posting is very effective for link building. Be sure to add something of value when you post a comment. If not you will be considered a spammer and you can bet banned. Add your link in your signature. Keep your URL within your signature and anytime you comment in that forum you leave

a link to your site behind.

Blogs - Another very effective method for getting one-way links to your site is blog posting. Just add your URL in your comment posting and soon you will be getting lots of links. Make sure to only post on blogs with similar themes to your own.

Other methods of obtaining backlinks are article submissions, press releases, involvement with social networks, link exchanges, and directory submission.

If you believe that backlinks don't carry any weight with the search engines, then type in 'click here' into Google's search box. It is on the first page of the results but it doesn't contain the phrase 'click here' in its description, its meta search phrases, its title, or within the content. So why does it rank on the first page of the results out of a possible 1,400,000,000 web pages? It's because at the time this article was written that web page had 900,000 backlinks, and all the links contained the words 'click here' as their anchor text.

These are all excellent ways to build links back to your site and send yourself to the front page of the search engine results page.
