Being able to define your own brand and its identity, will make it easier for others to define you.

Associate your brand with other entities that will help it become more relevant and authoritative [reciprocation in links and social].

Build on your brand’s unique selling point.

Create, develop an idea, or coin an industry term to exemplify and prove your brand’s expertise

It’s a good linkable asset.

Validate relevance.

Genuinely contribute and become a part of online communities where the linkers

in your industry are.

These sites may come in form of user-generated blogs, social platforms, forums or industry Q&A sites.

Build an Alliance.

Don’t head straight to your primary prospects. Moving away from the main segment of the audience everyone else is targeting may be more effective and rewarding sometimes.

In the early stage of Kaiserthesage, I first tried to engage and absorb readers from blogs focused on a different niche that are also interested in link building related topics

[blogging, make money online, affiliate marketing, etc…]

I read their stuff, regularly leave comments and share their posts on social media, and I also referenced some of their works in my own writing. Luckily, they’ve done the same.

Friends of friends marketing.

The more you can build your network and exposure, the more you can get ready and confident for a bigger and more targeted audience.

Write the type of content that your target prospects read, share and mostly link out to.

Focus on methods that will take less effort, but will yield more results.

Content ties everything in the digital marketing realm

together—that's why it is king.

Invite other influencers to write for you – to eventually build your own community.

And to automate link building (post received links from Moz, SEW, and more).

Get links from ranking pages, or build pages from domains that have high search share [to create constant traffic generators].

Because getting links and exposure from highly ranking pages can turn to revenue

My simplified checklist for technical on-site optimization

• Every page within a website must serve its own purpose. Treat every page as a landing page. Use the Noindex tag if it’s not important.

• Absolute relevance is key to win on this side of SEO. Each page’s content should

always match the keyword(s) it’s aiming to rank for, as well as the searchers’ possible intent.

• Build a solid internal linking structure to pass more link value to pages that you want to rank better (and also to improve the site’s domain authority and overall ranking capability).

• Optimize for great User-Experience. Make everything easy for users (whether it’s on navigating the site or actual usage of the site).

Just a simple process I’ve been doing for over a year now that only costs $500/month (or maybe less)

Suitable for sites that already have large traffic – as giving more brand exposure will be the incentive.

Exclusive Directories

links/mentions from entities listed on your list.

And a good section for the site to build trust and relevance signals.

Tracking News Sites’ Content Sources

Get published on places where they get their news stories.

Content Licensing

Beneficial to both parties. Original source of content gets more exposure (and links), while the licensee gets free content (that can

also attract links on its own).

Another form of content licensing is allowing your content to be translated to different languages – which

can help you reach more audience.

Note: Always link to the original source of content, and use the rel=“canonical” tag.

Microsites

That can specifically target several other niches that may also have a large portion of your business’ target market.

Which you can use to generate more leads, build hard-to-replicate links, collect more business insights/technology, and eventually build an empire.

• Invest on yourself. Keep on learning new things, because there are so much more to learn.

• Read. Test on your own. Write the stuff you’re learning.

• Keep on challenging yourself.

• Don’t be afraid to fail. Be afraid of succeeding.

• Find a mentor or people you can follow and learn indirectly from (I secretly learned from these people: Simon Slade, Wil Reynolds, Ross Hudgens, Sam Nams, JP Prieto, Russ Schneider).

• And most importantly…
