You want to build backlinks for your business, but you don't have the money
0:04
In this video I'm going to show you how it can be done cheaply
0:08
Hi everyone, I'm Kevin Smack, and I know that building backlinks can be expensive
0:14
like really expensive. But in this video I'm going to share with you how to do it without
0:20
breaking the bank. So if you're worried about not having enough money, you can give this a shot
0:26
Now as going through that intro, you'll notice I ignored the part about time because this does take some time
0:33
Not an insane amount, but not going to be really quick. To build links on fiber is very difficult and I only do it in the very beginning of the website to give it a little boost
0:44
Because the links are probably not going to last forever because as they sell more and more to those sites
0:51
Google catches on and they lose traffic over time. If you're looking for just a boost to get started and your site basically has nice content
1:01
maybe say like 40 articles or so and you're not getting a boost, but it's like it's doing
1:06
okay, but it's not like getting going yet. You may just need a few backlinks to give you a push
1:13
The backlinks will give you a few months to get up in the ranks. And as you do that, your motivation will increase
1:19
You'll probably write more. And also on top of that, you might get some
1:24
natural backlinks. And there's a chance Google may just give you that link juice because you had it
1:30
a while ago. I'm going to show you my method on how to get the links through Fiverr. I want to make
1:36
sure to say this, if you do this wrong or you get unlucky, there's a chance you're just going to
1:43
waste the money. Just know that. Full disclaimer, I'm going to show you how I figure it out and how I get it to
1:50
work. So on Fiverr, I search either, you know, backlinks or guest posts and you look for some people here
1:58
to purchase them from. Now, as I look through here, you know, this says a thousand, this has a thousand
2:05
673. Those are huge numbers that I usually stay away from. How are they getting perfect ratings
2:13
well they write the article they do the link and they deliver it and boom there you go did you get
2:22
what you asked for yeah did it work well you don't know you got to wait a few months to know
2:27
so these people don't know they are hoping it works a lot of these people are new that are getting
2:33
backlinks so they're just diving in not knowing what's going on and like hey this is going to help me
2:38
I'm doing it so I stay away from the big ones because their sites are going to be watered down
2:43
and they're probably going to get caught. You need to look for more of the person that just has one website
2:48
have an idea of the domain authority. I usually shoot for 25
2:54
but I will take 20 if it's cheap. Sometimes people do it for like 10 bucks
2:59
I know most people say you need higher domain authority, but if you have no backlinks
3:03
and you get a DA of 20 to link to you for or I think it definitely worth it So first we need to find someone here So we would go through and look and again you see some of these really high numbers
3:18
You're looking for people that will have one site, but don't really mention the website
3:23
There may be ones that do and you can still check it. What I like to see is the ones that say
3:30
you know, I have one website, and I will go ahead and
3:35
write a domain post. There are so many, so many. So this is also a great way to make some extra
3:43
money on your website once you do get it up there as long as you are careful about it and don't go
3:50
insane because the more you do, the worse your site will probably end up being. We're going to actually
3:55
change to guest posts because I'm noticing the word backlinks is extremely spammy. Things change
4:02
all the time. Google News approved, do follow in permanent, an 80
4:07
and okay, this is a one page website. So this is one I'd probably take a look at
4:12
and see what it offers. If you click on it, they're not giving you the name of the site
4:19
that I believe, let's see. Here you go. Need to know the URL, message me
4:27
That's important because you don't want them to list it because listing it there is going to just make it
4:32
worse. So what you would do is message this person and they would give you the URL. Simple as that
4:38
So let me show you what you are not looking for. What you want to do is go to Semrush and I do use tools
4:45
I use a lot of different tools, but this is going to be a free tool that I use. And the next tool I'm
4:51
going to show you is also free. So Semrush, you can sign up for a free account and it gives you like
4:56
10 queries a day. So you might have to break this up into a few days depending on how many links you're
5:01
looking at, but it does give you a really great idea of traffic and how the site looks
5:08
On this site, we see a domain authority of 44. They have a lot of backlinks. If you look at the
5:15
traffic, it was good, and then it kind of bottomed out. It's still getting some traffic
5:21
but for a site this size, you're probably going to want more. It looks like it's starting to
5:26
recover a bit. So this would be a questionable one, since I see it recovering
5:31
little. I still think the traffic's way too low. If you see zero organic traffic, then that means
5:39
it's not worth getting that backlink. Because if Google doesn't give them traffic, Google's not
5:46
going to give you traffic from them referring to you. Basically, this site is not in good standings
5:53
and because it's not in good standing, the do follow links mean a lot less. If we scroll down all the
6:01
to the bottom we can see follow links 41,000 no follow links 27,000 but they have 41,000
6:10
follow links that is a lot that is basically saying they are selling links I mean
6:16
sometimes you get the millions you know it depends on the size of the site Text links 98 67 There you go I would pass on this Now let me show you an example of one that I would go with
6:31
Here's one, authority score is 38, have the backlinks. Looking at the traffic, you know, it's going decent
6:40
It looks like it's still improving. Now, I don't know how long this one will last, but I would go
6:46
with this one because this looks like a solid backlink. And if you did purchase it earlier on
6:52
there's a chance that the domain authority may have went up in that time. So depending on the price
6:57
this is one I would definitely go with. To check this area, again, you do see a lot of follow links
7:01
14,000. That is a good amount. And again, you're at to 98%. So you are looking at a good amount
7:08
of follow links here. But I think this one would be worth investing in if it's cheap. Because like I said
7:14
on Fiverr, you can get links for $10. and you could have them write the article for like another 10 bucks
7:22
So on Fiverr, after I purchase it, what do I do? I always have them write the post just because it's usually really cheap and I just
7:29
I don't care about the quality of the back link article as much as long as it meets, you know
7:36
some ideas. And you know what? I'm not going to accept it unless they do that
7:41
What have I had a problem with in the past? I had someone rewrite my article but tried to make it like competing
7:49
And I was like, no, that's not what I'm looking for. You're trying to compete against me in that article
7:54
I just want you to go ahead and give me a link, talk about it, and then refer to it
8:00
So I had them rewrite the article and then it was better. You also want to make sure they're not guest posting on other guest posting sites
8:08
There are people that make a killing on Fiverr. All they do is do guest posts
8:13
and what they do is they go to places that take guest posts and they just post it
8:19
So when you're investigating these sites, you want to go into the browser, make sure it's HTTP
8:24
Make sure they don't let you submit guest posts on the domain
8:28
If they do, then you don't even need them. You can just do it directly unless you just want to pay 10 bucks to have someone do it for you
8:37
So after you get the links, you want to monitor them as well. I use H-Refs
8:41
This is a free tool. I mean, there's a paid version too, but I used a free one
8:47
And you can see here I monitor a lot of my stuff. So my best playgroundsets.com, you can see the domain ratings all over
8:56
I got two referring domains, two backlinks recently. And I'll monitor the backlinks and see where it goes
9:04
If I notice backlinks fall off, I would go into the backlinks and check
9:08
because at times they may remove your post. So especially in the first month
9:13
I would really keep an eye out. And if it is removed, you just message to person
9:18
I've had it happen. They're like, so sorry, let me put it back. And then they put it back and you're good
9:23
because they usually have it. I haven had a problem with anyone putting it back So far so good So this is how I would go through and build some backlinks Now I wouldn do a lot I would do like two to ten personally
9:38
Just because I'm looking for that initial boost. I just want to get going
9:43
I'm not looking for longevity links. I'm just trying to get up more into search terms
9:48
so I can get some out there, maybe get some natural links
9:52
get my other stuff to evolve. And it seems like as those backlinks fall off
9:56
I don't notice any traffic really being lost because now I got it going and it's snowballing
10:04
and I'm working more on it and it just keeps going. Now, results may vary, of course
10:09
What are the alternatives? Well, an alternative to doing backlinks would definitely be a syndicate network
10:16
And I do want to do a video on that. I'm going to actually do that video next. So I'll talk about that and kind of let you know how that works
10:23
That's more of a social media links. But we'll get more into that
10:29
What has your experience been on Fiver? Are you like, no, no, no, stay away, stay away
10:33
Because I have to admit, you have to be careful. You have to be careful where you're just going to get stuff that's not good
10:39
A lot of people may disagree with this information and that's fine. I am still somewhat new to blogging
10:44
I've only been blogging for about three years at some other sites that didn't do so well
10:49
because then niches and keywords were wrong. I did make websites back in the day and they did very well
10:55
but that was a long time ago and yeah, life has changed a lot since then
11:00
So that's just what I'm seeing. And, you know, if I spend, say, a hundred bucks for 10 links that will last for a few months
11:09
I think I'm okay with that instead of spending $400, $500 on one link that will last longer
11:17
and still possibly have the same issue. Because a lot of times what will happen is people build up these sites, they get to hide domain
11:25
and then they just fill them with these posts that link to other people and then they die out
11:33
And a lot of other places will do that too simply because they might not even know what's happening
11:38
It's really hard to get an honest, reliable link. And I've seen people do reviews on other backlink companies and they show this and the organic traffic is zero
11:48
The organic traffic is zero. Stay away. So that's my ramble about backlink
11:55
Again, as always, stay still here in the comments. I'm sure a lot of people are going to disagree with me, but that's okay
12:00
I would like to see what you say. Make sure you comment down below. Let me know how you get backlinks
12:05
Do you get backlinks? I'll tell you right now, playgroundsets.com, I do not get backlinks for
12:12
I got backlinks for my other site, and it seemed to really push it when it was stuck
12:17
And that was about it. You know, that was my main site
12:21
And then that was it. I haven't worked on it since. I'm still gaining. I'm growing. I don't get a lot of natural links, but I am getting here and there, I guess
12:30
It just takes a while. My traffic is also going up really big on that site, so I can't wait to share that in the monthly reports
12:39
I just can't wait until the end of the month. All right, so thanks so much, and I'll see you later
