I have read so many forum posts over the last few weeks about generating backlinks and there seems to be too much focus on generating backlinks purely for search engine positioning (SERPs).

That is not to say that generating backlinks for SERPs is not important – however, I think it would be more effective if the starting point was not, “How many backlinks can I get” but instead was “Where can I place a link that a human being might actually click on it.”

In other words, if the primary reason for placing the link is to generate traffic, the SERPs will take care of itself. Why? Because the types of places that will get the most clicks are the same places that rate highly in search engines. In other words, don’t spend time chasing links in directories and anonymous scuttle and pligg sites – instead, spend time seeking our the places where your potential customers may browse.

There is an additional benefit to this approach too – you may actually find some useful sites!

My personal view is that directory submissions – even with automated software – is probably time that could be better spent doing something else.

I created a Directory Submissions Software Hub and Directory Submissions Video.

I appreciate that this may be a somewhat controversial view – what are your thoughts on the matter?

A constant refrain on my website is that quality is more important than quantity. This applies particularly to backlinks.

Finding backlinks can be incredibly time-consuming and often there is little reward for all the hard work. If Google doesn’t value the site on which you create your backlink, then it won’t value your backlink either.

That is why sites such as hubpages, squidoo and Yahoo Answers are so important. Quality sites, with an active user community effectively moderating content. Google can trust the content and so the link is valuable.

But how can you find the links quickly? Enter, Market Samurai, a program that I refer to several times on the website (Finding Niche Keywords Using Market Samurai).
