Is link Building Dead?

Another thought provoking question i put to you my fellow bloggers. This blogger must be crazy must be your first thought when you saw this headline, how could you ever think that? is the other question that might comes to your mind.Lets face it from my observation and this is just my personal opinion there are no facts that suggest other wise but in the past this was seen to be the craze emails flying around from bloggers and webmasters asking for link exchange sites like linkmetro.com was a place where bloggers and website owners trade links with one another.

Building links pointing back to our website or blog is is still important in my view this enhance the importance of our website and highlight its importance using your chosen anchor text this can lead to one thing and ultimately that is traffic which is the life blood of our blog. The flow of traffic to your website is never enough. Now that Google has factor in page speed as part of its website ranking factor do you believe that link building is dead?

There are lots of ways to build link to your website or blog the route you choose is yours however be aware that getting involved in link farm is not advisable because this can get your website penalised by the major search engines. Commenting on blogs is a good way of building links to your blog some believe that CommentLuv enable blogs are the best blogs to build back links with i still believe leaving comments on any blogs whether it be do follow or no follow has its advantage when i do leave a comment on blogs i don’t stop to think about CommentLuv or do follow. I will explain this ,have you ever visit a blog see a comment that is relevant to the post and follow it to the commenter’s blog? i am sure lots of you has done this well you got the point comments are valuable source of traffic where ever you place them.

Well that brings me back to the headline “Is link Building Dead?” now share your views you might find this topic thought provoking it is just lawmacs trying to share his views, what are yours? do think building links is still worth it or is it that you do what i do?, try and build links naturally  building link naturally is getting people to link to you without you asking which i think is the best way so have your say Is link building dead or alive?.
