Link Building - Before & After Google Penguin Update

Hi {NAME}, Link Building was much more simpler a few years back when there was no Google Penguin Algorithm. You could have your website listed in ‘n’ number of directories and simply climb up to Google’s first page in a matter of weeks. However, this concept itself got Google into trouble and all websites owners started building spammy backlinks to improve their rankings. It was by that time when Google came up with the Penguin update. It is by far the most important update which brought a lot of restrictions to all link building activities, especially Directory Submissions. Today, if you are planning to go for directories, you must check for the below criteria to ensure that your submissions are Google-friendly. - Quality of Directories - Diversity of Titles (Anchor texts) - Type of Directories Quality of Directories: The quality of directories is very important in today’s link-building. It is more important to get a few quality backlinks rather than hundreds of spammy ones. So what is the criteria to shortlist directories? One of the best ways to categorize directories is through Domain Authority. It will give you a fair idea of how good a directory is. Any directory having DA 20+ is considered a good one. You can [have a look] at our [paid directories] if you are interested in high DA authorities. Diversity of Titles: Before Penguin update, the website owners used almost the same titles(anchor texts) for all the incoming backlinks and it wasn’t an issue at all. But today, it is very important to keep your anchor texts as diverse as possible and that is why we provide you an option to write upto 20 Titles & Descriptions. The written T&Ds will then be used for all of your directory submissions based on your chosen Distribution Ratios. The Distribution Ratio determines the weightage that you give for each and every T&D. [Click here] if you want to add your site URL as well as write your Titles & Descriptions.
