Are you looking to increase your site traffic? Would you like to do it for free? If you answered yes, you aren’t alone. That’s what most of us are trying to do. The key is to increase your traffic ethically, and you can do this with ethical link building. 

Link building is very important for your site. This is the process where you create links that point to your page from someone else’s page. This happens naturally as quality content is created, but there are also things you can do to build links. 

#1 You can trade links with other sites that are directly related to your website’s subject matter to bring more traffic to your site. For example, let’s say you sell oranges on your site, then you could look to link with other sites that sell oranges or related products like orange juice, orange salad, etc. 

You can build two way links that include the other site providing you with a link while you provide them with a link. You should never link to sites that are inferior or low quality as this will threaten your own ranking in the search engines.

You can link back on forums and blogs that are related to your site. Find communities that are in your niche market, create a user profile, enter your site information and then start to make quality posts. This will bring you free traffic to your site. 

You should also directly contact other sites that are related to your niche. If you can get these companies to link to your website through a blog post or how to article it will significantly increase your free traffic to your site. 

Finally, take the time to create an RSS feed, which will allow your articles to easily link to a number of different places. Submit the RSS feed to numerous related directories and give your traffic a direct boost. 

Linking is a powerful tool that when used ethically can increase your traffic and your placement in the search engines.
