What is a good backlinks tool?

Have you been paying an unreasonable amount of money for a backlinks tool to find you backlinks? Are you just wanting to know what tools are out there to do the backlinking work for you?

I am into bum marketing. This is a new term they use for article marketing. It's so called because people who do it, don't pay to advertise.

So, I was looking for a backlinks tool that:

A: was affordable

B: was easy to use

C: did the job

D: would help increase traffic to landing pages

E: would bring relevant and related traffic

and

F: would boost my sales

G: would save me time

I like simplicity, efficiency and I like value for money!

How to build backlinks

You want your articles, landing pages,blogs etc to get noticed right?
Thats the whole point isnt it?
To get people reading what you have to say.
But how are you going to do that if no one knows where you are or what you have to say?
You have to make yourself known.
How?
You have to build backlinks and not only that you want to build the best backlinks.

Here are some pointers to build the best backlinks:

1. Find relevant and related backlinks. (eg: do a search for websites related to your content)
2. Find backlinks that are reputable (a higher page rank(PR) will boost your sites page rank)
3. Get a variety of backlinks - from forums, video sites, websites, social bookmarking sites(digg.com, mixx.com, stumble upon, delicious, technorati), social network sites(Facebook, MySpace) You are aiming for volume here
4. Find out where your competition is getting their backlinks - SPY on them!!
5. Build backlinks into directory sights (like DMOZ
6. Get one way backlinks. (You can do reciprocal backlinks but NOT always - you don't want people clicking off your sites)
7. Post comments on blogs - but don't be over promotional
8. Find 5 new forums a week on which to help people (in topics related to your content - check that you can include a signature link in your profile)
9. Get a backlinks tool to find the above backlinks using filters.It will help you find a url/websites, spy on websites, affiliate websites, video sites etc.

Building backlinks is just a matter of getting a link from your webpage onto another website. But, don't go posting your link on sites that are not relevant to your content. You must qualify(check through) the website to see if it is somehow related to your content. Please leave a comment if you need any more help or details regarding this topic.

What are backlinks? - Basics for Newbies

Whether you create a websight, landing page or post articles you want the search engines to recognize them right?
So you want to get people reading and listening to what you have to say.
Well your site/s or web page/s are not going to be recognized or indexed without you doing some major work.
You have to get some connections or some links coming to your web page from different places.
That's what backlinks are. They are links from other websites to your website.

Points about backlinks:


* They are mostly free but some are paid.(At this stage I pay for NONE!)
* They can be one way links or reciprocal links (if you scratch my back I'll scratch yours kinda thing!)
* They can be found manually (timely) or with a backlinks tool (efficient)
* They can come from regular websites, forums, social bookmarking sites, social networking sights,article directories,blogs,blog commenting, article commenting,online directories (DMOZ), video sights, Q&A sites(Yahoo!Answers)
* There are follow and no follow backlinks (check another post on this one)
* There are free, paid, cheap, expensive and VERY expensive backlinks tools on the market that help you build backlinks.

I am just touching the surface and answering a question that people OFTEN ask me.
