Over the years, I’ve done tons of link building experiments. What has worked extremely well is getting authority sites to link to my internal pages.

It’s not easy to do, but it can help grow your search traffic rapidly, especially if your blog or website is new. Just look at the search traffic of my personal blog.

As you can see from the image above, my search traffic increased by over 60% in 30 days. It’s mainly due to links from authority sites. I am generating them through PR deals with companies like Audience Bloom. They are pitching authority sites, like Forbes, stories about my website…

Sometimes they accept the pitch, and other times they don’t, but the good news is Audience Bloom only charges you when a story gets accepted.

If you don’t have the money to pay a company to help you do this, you can also try to get these authority links on your own. All Audience Bloom is doing is pitching tons of contributors on stories. It’s just another form of outreach… it’s a lot of work, but it does help.
