Hrmm that was weird, my comment got eaten. Anywho I wanted to say that it’s nice to know that someone else also touched on this as I had trouble finding the same information elsewhere. This was the first place that helped me understand this. Thanks.

@Kyle,

That’s a good question and the answer could possibly be another blog post that I’ll be writing sometime in the future.

The fact is that this topic has been covered hundreds of times before on other SEO blogs. The crazy thing is that new ways of getting links to you site are popping up constantly and there are already older methods that continue to be effective. For now I’d recommend checking out these articles below and I’ll have to tweet you if I end up writing a post about it myself.

@Tony There are several shady things SEO companies do unfortunately regarding link building. I have noticed paid links, yahoo PPC accounts as common ways to get links, or links the SEO company controls. The key is to have sustainable growth with the linking.

@Miguel

Yes, there are several ways. The easy way is simply to type into the search bar at Google or Yahoo the text “link:www.example.com” where example is your site’s url.

Yahoo will usually show a higher number because Google only shows a sample of the links to your site.
