Automatic Relevant Backlinks to Your WordPress Blog
This guest post is written by Dave Wooding, blogger and a programmer of LinkingPress, new service designed to help you link building process on autopilot.
If you are blogger who is serious about improving your search engine rankings, then you have probably spent a good chunk of time getting backlinks to your blog.
Spending time on acquiring those valuable backlinks that work wonders for your search engine rankings can be a full time job. What if you could do a little work up front to guarantee a steady stream of relevant backlinks to you blog, would you do like that?
Let me introduce you to Linkingpress, the WordPress backlink plugin that delivers relevant, non-reciprocating backlinks to your WordPress blog over time on autopilot.
Get Started.
Download Linkingpress. Unzip to your computer. Upload to your WordPress plugin directory and activate. Click on options. Fill in the details. Done.
O.K., there is a little more to it than just that, but really, there isn’t much more.
Downloading and installing Linkingpress is just like most WordPress plugins, you upload the plugin to your plugin directory and activate.
You’ll need to provide some basic information starting with a name for your Linkingpress link’s page. Note well, if your blog has other plugins that control which pages get displayed, you will need to make sure there is a visible link on your home page to your Linkingpress link’s page, otherwise the link page will never update.
Next, decide if you want to give and receive links from related sites only or not. We can debate the value of related sites only versus not; instead, you decide what type of links are appropriate for your blog. As you might suspect, there will likely be more blogs that are giving and receiving links that are not necessarily in the same category.
For categories, the choices are similar to the top level DMOZ categories.
Next, on to the keywords. What are the keyword phrases that best represent your WordPress blog? Provide three different keyword phrases that you would like to use as anchor text in the description about your blog.
Here comes the important part – the part that some people seem to miss. You have a precious 255 characters to use that describes your blog. Use them well and make sure you include your exact keywords in the description.
Let me say that again.
Make sure your description includes the three keyword phrases you provided, exactly.
When a partner’s Linkingpress plugin serves up a description about your blog, the plugin will read your description and check to see if your keywords are included. If the plugin finds a match, then your keyword phrase is hyperlinked back to your domain. If it doesn’t find a match, then you missed out. A description will still get placed on the links page, but no outgoing links for your site will be provided.
Know that all of this information can be changed at any time. It might take 24 hours for details to update on partner’s link page, but the changes can be made at anytime, regardless.
Now is as good a time as any to mention that Linkingpress is a user moderated plugin. Make an effort to provide an appropriate description and keywords about your blog. You and your fellow plugin users have the option of rejecting whichever sites you want that are either linking in or linking out. Get rejected by too many other blogs and you won’t be receiving or giving backlinks. Enough said.
Here’s how it works
Starting with your blog – Linkingpress will add one outgoing link on your blog’s link page everytime your link’s page is visited and at least 24 hours have passed since the page was last updated. If your blog is a popular blog, and the links page gets visited on a consistent basis by regular visitors or search engine bots looking for fresh content, then you can expect that a new outgoing link will appear on your link’s page on a daily basis.
On the other hand, if your site is not very popular yet, more time might pass before more outgoing links are added to your link’s page. How frequently links are added depends on how often your links page is visited.
For example, if your links page was updated at noon on Tuesday, the earliest that another link will be added is on Wednesday at noon.
The same applies to your potential link partner’s blogs.
Tell me more
Remember those three keyword phrases you provided? Not all of them get linked every time your description is displayed. There is a little math being done in the background that determines which of your three links are displayed. There will never be all three keywords hyperlinked; either one or two of your keywords will be hyperlinked.
Over time, you can expect that your blog will give and receive an equal number of backlinks with approximately a third of the links going to one of your keyword phrases, a third going to your second keyword phrase, a third going to your third keyword phrase …
This plugin is not for the impatient. There might be days that pass before you receive a new backlink, and there might be days when you get multiple links to your blog. It all depends on how frequently Linkingpress link’s pages are visited.
If you are looking for an automated method of receiving relevant, contextual backlinks to your WordPress blog, install the Linkingpress backlink plugin on your self hosted WordPress blog.

It sounds really interesting. Have you tested it yourself? I understand that it might not be the fastest solution out there but for blogs that are left untouched it might be nice addition and it seems like a hands off solution.

Mikael,
This is guest post by the owner of the system. I liked the concept and gladly posted his article about the service but I haven’t tried it myself yet. I think once the network of blogs growth – it will be great addition for many blogs and its growing fast – based on what I see initially and now – it nearly doubled. Just need more exposure.
Hi Mikael,
I’m the creator (thanks for letting me guest post Alex).
“hands off” is the key concept behind this plugin. You can set-and-forget and let the contextual, relevant backlinks grow over time.
You can also manage the links in and out through the dashboard if you so choose.
As Alex mentions, the number of blogs in the system will ultimately determine the results achieved.

Thank you for replying Dave. Since I have tried similar tools and plugins before I am curious as to what will happen if I decide to uninstall the plugin. Will all the links disappear or will they stay there?
Mikael,
Believe it or not – I had not considered that until recently.
Your links will stay there unless someone decides to remove you from their links page. This is very much a user driven plugin – if people find that you are not contributing, it is likely that they will remove your link.
A future release will give you the ability to completely remove your blog from the system.
Maybe down the road I will add in a way to check if your blog is still contributing … not hard to do, but potentially server resource intensive.

I am tremendously excited to try this plugin. I hope, my site will be up and running soon.
Vince – it does look like a good concept! I personally like the ability to control what blogs you will link out to!
Anytime something can be automated while giving you control – is good in my book!
I don’t know, this seems like the kind of thing that upsets the Google gods. Maybe I will try it on one of my smaller blogs. If it works it could mean a lot of link juice though.

WordPress definitely has so much more tools compared to Blogger. We only have good widgets to go in the sidebar.
Nothing beats “relevant” and “automatic” backlinks.
Kai Los last blog post..KeywordLuv Plugin
Great concept here and I may try this tool out. Having a program to help you get links is like having another employee.

This looks like another great SEO wordpress plugin. I do think you have to be a little more careful when it comes to linking out to other sites so will probably give it a go on a test site first to see what happens.

I did try this plug in for more than a month and it doesn’t work so much in my case. Maybe because I have a religious niche to which I observed a little less targeted niche.
For two and a half months, there were only two linked to me, the ugly thing, they were unrelated links. And after a few days, they are gone, I don’t know why.
Anyway, maybe this plugin is not for everybody, not for me. But this could be a great plugin though for highly targeted niche.:) Just a little feedback.

Vince,
As with everything else – “one size fits all” doesn’t exist! Thanks for sharing
I would just be worried about the where the links are coming from and getting in trouble with Google.
I think this will be a very large help to my site of fitness exercise bikes and i look forward to getting it installed and running I know the if it creates any backlinks for me it will help with my SEO Plan

Excellent post. There are many people trying very hard to get one way backlinks. I think this would be the best way to get one way links. Hey really thanks for sharing this plugin with all. Really a great job. Thanks again.
