The Only Link Building Strategy You’ll Ever Need: “Dream” Link Building
Let’s face two hard facts:
Only 9% of websites and articles get traffic from Google. (Ahrefs)
Even fewer, only 6% of websites and articles make it to the first page of Google (where all the clicks are) within one year of their creation. (also, Ahrefs)
Link building is not complicated, it’s just difficult to do well and create a process that scales, especially when you’re just starting out.
But what if I told you that:
You can be a part of that 6%.
You can build high-authority links to your website, even if you’re just getting started.
And you can do it, by sending just…. 👏 one 👏 email 👏 per 👏 day.
100% chance this is your reaction right now:
prolly not
SKEPTICALLLLLLL.
Read on, and I’ll explain how I do it, examples of other people who do it, and how you can do it as well. PLUS, a walkthrough of exactly how I’d do it if I were you.
My Link Building Strategy:
Focus on relationships (not links)
Make your “Dream Link” list
Remember your why
Remember their why
Do your research
Reach Out
Don’t give up
First, please understand this vital first step…
In 2010, I was just starting my journey online and, having read Pat Flynn’s Smart Passive Income blog, I started with a little WordPress site around something I was passionate about.
In my case, this was Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
I read everything I could, implemented it, and then reached out to Pat to share what worked for me. Pat ended up inviting me to discuss review it with him as one of the first 50 guests on the SPI Podcast.
It’s meta, but the irony of the email I sent Pat was that I was using a 2020 link building strategy, but we spent all of our time talking about how link building worked back in 2010.
