So, the action plan is in full swing now and I’ve added to it and taken away from it as required. The funny thing is how easy it has been to keep it in mind. By that I mean I know when I’m straying from the plan and I know when it’s influencing my decisions and stopping me going off on too much of a tangent.
One of the strategies that I’ve added to my action plan, is to put aside some time 2-3 times a week creating backlinks. I spent some money in the Warrior Special Offer on a plan that should gain, what has become my main site, a ton of backlinks.
But however I get them, I’m in hot pursuit of them. Here is my backlink foray:
- Posting comments to blogs in my niche! Checking on the 20 blog comments that I did ten days ago, the comments have all been approved! So no spammy comments.
- Forum marketing. I’m not particularly hot on this because I kinna feel all dirty when I rock up in a forum, start answering questions and then some time later produce a signature with my site on it!
- Article marketing! Still writing those articles, several a day, and submitting them.
- I’ve also been submitting my blog to a ton of blog directories, which takes time and is perhaps something I should seriously consider outsourcing!
- Leaving/rating articles in EzineArticles is also a good source, though again, I’m careful to read the article and I have a genuine comment.
- Twitter! You either love it or hate it!
- Link exchange! Find this tricky and though I’ve tried it, I’ve only ever got 2 links this way
- Yahoo Answers. I really enjoy that.
Suffice to say, I’m backlinking like crazy and just like the article writing, it is money in the bank!
