– Link swapping is a waste of time.
– Directory submissions don’t work.
– Article submissions don’t work.
– PPC traffic is expensive and the clicks are powered by monetary incentives and offers.
– Buying links will get your site penalized, is expensive and in the long run, worthless, as the selling party continues to sell more and more links until his/her website loses value, expires, etc
– You will get links if you build great content is not true.
Having great content will definitely encourage repeat visitors, but it will not necessarily get you links. Regularly adding quality content will also give your site more visibility in the search engines as your site will appear in the serps for more search terms. Social media sites can also be a good source of traffic. But how does one get tons of quality links naturally? That is the one million dollar question.
