What Are Backlinks And Why Do We Need Them?

April 27, 2010 By Connie Ragen Green Leave a Comment

Backlinks are the links that are directed towards your website. These inbound links are an indication of just how popular or important your site is, and make your site more relevant in the eyes of Google and the other search engines. This is all a part of SEO (search engine optimization) that can be quite confusing when you are new online.

A few months ago I met Susanne Myers at a conference in North Carolina. She is very smart about these things, and told me she was creating a course on how we can learn to do what she does to get quality backlinks to her sites. In fact, she has been able to get 50,000 of these backlinks to her site during the past two and a half years. In that same period of time I have only been able to get about 1,800 backlinks to this site, even though I have written almost 1,400 articles and done everything I knew how to do to make that number grow.

Backlinks help you to get traffic and customers year in and year out, instead of only when you are actively promoting your site. It means the difference between working online as a job and building a business that can bring you passive income from everything you do. Take a look at Susanne’s course on building backlinks and having a link building strategy and see if this is for you. I have just begun her course and already have learned things I had no clue about before now.

    Thanks as usual, Connie,
    I have always wondered how to get more backlinks and I thought that grinding it out with articles was the only way to do it.

    I will check out her course. But I have to tell you that the promotion of course after course does NOT promote doing any one thing since you have to stop and “take the other course” and I’ve realized that is probably my most significant problem. And I am so looking forward to your course but already have the Product Creation Course as a distraction. We create our own stumbling blocks and then wonder “Oh my, what just happened.” But we all know that whatever you recommend is the cream of the crop…

    Off to contemplate my own dilemma.

      Terrie,
      This course is one lesson each week for 13 weeks. The first
      lesson took me 10 minutes to read and 10 minutes to implement.
      The second lesson was similar.
      You can see in her sales letter that she stresses how simple
      this is. A course does not have to take hours each week to be
      worth the money. The information she includes is not being taught
      anywhere else on the Internet. For me, it is definitely worth 3
      payments of $29 each to build up my websites with backlinks.

    Hi Connie!

    You know I’m a marketing nut. (Like someone I know.)

    And, there are a few main areas that every online business person needs to work on in order to really get to where you are.

    1. List
    2. Traffic
    3. Offers (products, affiliate promos, etc.)

    Getting backlinks helps with #2.

    Having links on other sites (lots of relevant ones) helps you to get people to your site when they click through the links (if you’re placing the links intelligently) and it also helps the search engines send you visitors who are actively searching for solutions to the problems that you can solve.

    It’s really free money.

    Connie. You’ve chosen another 5 star product to promote. But, then again, I’m promoting it, too, (and I’m EXTREMELY picky as well) so I can say that. 🙂

    Although I already have a very profitable online business, I turn to Susanne daily, for advice. She’s amazing – much like Connie.

    Anyway, I saw this and had to swing by and throw in my 2 cents.

    Go … Make… Money!

    Warmly,
    Nicole

      brilliant marketers!
      Connie
