Ask any internet Marketing expert what the main aspect of online marketing you should focus on is, and without a doubt he will tell you - link building. Although there are many other factors to successfully marketing a site online, building high quality links to your web site should definitely be at the top of the list.
A simple exercise will show you the power of link building and prove its potential beyond a shadow of a doubt. Go to Google and do a search for "Click Here" (without quotes). The Adobe site will appear in the top rankings out of more than 6 BILLION websites. Click on the Adobe site and see if you can find the word "Click Here" anywhere on the site. You will soon see that is not on the page, nor in any of the meta tags. So the question is how did the Adobe site rank so well for such a competitive keyword phrase? The answer is simple - other sites linking to them with the anchor text "Click Here." That is indisputable proof of the power of link building over all other type of marketing.
Now that we are on the same page and you have seen the power of linking with you own eyes the question remains: how do you effectively start building high quality links to your site? Article writing is a great way to get started, because you can add a link in the resource area of your article pointing back to the specific page that you are targeting. Posting to social networks such as Spurl, Backflip, Diigo and Mister-wong are great ways to launch your link marketing campaign. The value of linking is a very powerful method of promoting your web site and as such should be your main focus.
