A common question I hear from customers is, "How many links will it take for me to reach the number one position in the search engines?" While this question is common, it's impossible to answer without knowing a bunch of variables that are extremely difficult to ascertain.

However, I think what the customer really wants to know is, "How much will it cost my company before I rank and start making money?"

In this episode, we discuss why that is. If you want to compete with folks that have massive budgets, then you need to either have a massive budget or something truly viral.

This podcast episode is a bit of a tirade. Outreach link builders are notorious for being annoying and spammy in their approach to sourcing opportunities for links (for themselves and their clients).

Sometimes you have to give before you receive. That's the best way to treat other websites. Don't expect to receive something of value before you give something. Life doesn't work that way.

The algorithm Google uses is kept secret, and we know it's pretty complicated, but we understand how it works on a high level. Basically, the more links you have pointed to your domain, and the better-quality those links are, the higher your authority will grow—and accordingly, the higher you'll rank.

Does that mean you should spam links to your homepage as often as possible? Absolutely not.

Your link building strategy should focus on links that have the following qualities:

Going broad in any endeavor, at least at the outset, is not advisable. This is especially true in search engine optimization. We always advise other SEO agency partners to find and focus on a niche.

In this episode of the SEO podcast, we discuss some of the reasons why focusing on a niche will actually allow you to grow bigger, not smaller.

One of the best ways to get quality exposure and earn yourself some great, deserving and natural links is to use Help a Reporter Out (HARO). Apart from guest posting and PR, it has been one of our company's best methods for procuring some great, quality backlinks. Through HARO, we have obtained dozens of links from sites with Domain Authority 50, 60, 70, 80 and even a DA 91. So, don't knock it until you've tried it.

If you're not using HARO for your link building, I would sign up and start submitting responses. It can be one of the easiest ways to see quick wins even for small brands.

But, be patient. It can take some time to see traction from it, but it's definitely worth the small effort required.
