What is natural link growth?

[malice95]

Does anyone know when to many links within X time period is bad?

I obviously want to increase the number of IBL links to my site. I participate
in several keyword relavent forums and post 2 or 3 messages a day with my signature
link. I assume this is okay..

How about spending an entire evening answering every single broken or cracked
TV question on the web I can find resulting in 50 or 70 new IBLs for a site a month+ old?

Is that to many?

Thanks, Mike

Just forum links doesn't look too good in your link profile. You need more variety. I know forum links are easy to get, but you need to focus on more ways to promote your website.


To answer your question in the title: "What is natural link growth?" the answer is: Any link that points to your website of which you do not know about when it was created, is a natural link.

Natural link building is done by submitting to related niche...

In directories you must submit it to right category, forum postings on related to your niche, etc...

Sorry, but that is not natural link building. That's just actively putting links in what ever place you can get them.

Peter is correct. Directories will very often have their own spiders and they will seek links based on anchor text/ directory topic sections. Bad location sites can also find you and link you. Google understands this problem. If when using your toolbox or xenu for finding these links it is advisable to try to get rid of them by contacting the webmaster.

Just a quick note on the forum links thing. If you're posting loads of replies on one forum G groups them together anyway. Otherwise prolific posters would end up with bloody thousands of free backlinks from relevant content!

[kronikmedia]

Natural linking has been rightly described as the links which are not influence by the website itself in any way. i.e other websites and articles, etc linking naturally to your website because they have found it relevant not as a result of forum signatures or blog posts done by the website or people involved with it in any way. However that is not recommended for websites other than the major websites in the world because in real terms you will need to promote your website in some way or else you will never achieve online exposure.

Cheers for sharing Webnauts. The basic link building is a must for anyone (newbie or oldie - it doesn't do any harm to be refreshed!) Ill study the Matt Cutts interview when i have more time. I had a quick look and his advice on generating quality links is excellent!

Natural link growth means: One way links without website owner or webmaster notice. Natural link growth possible for only informative sites as well as good product based sites

Can you be more specific please?

Natural link growth to me is what is natural to

yes me

[inertia]

Well, it's easier for a sites such as yours or an online retailer to naturally build links than say... a london car mechanic or a house builder.

Generally speaking, services are harder to market than products.

[inertia]

I think what i mean is... it is harder for an SEO/online marketer to naturally build links for some clients compared to others.

Natural link building is not possible for all kinds of websites because natural link growth is possible for the News, Articles, Education, Sports, Books, Journals, Free Tools, Free Email Account Providers, Communities, Forums etc.,

Im kind of agreeing and disagreeing at the same time. What is stopping any site adding "News, Articles, Education, Journals, Free Tools, Communities, Forums"? Some sites will feel the benefit of these more than others but anyone can do it.

I think you are thinking the same as... it is easier for an seo/sem/smo etc to market the sort of sites you list because the link bait is already there for them to promote.
