The term link building is inextricably linked with search engine optimization . Anyone who manages one or more websites should be aware of the significance of link building.

It is seen as a way to get your website ranked high in the organic search results of Google Why stop with link building? I will come back to that.

What is link building?

To answer this question we must first know why backlinks are so important.

Google was the first search engine ranking of a certain website on the basis of the number of backlinks that had been given this website. The more backlinks a website over time got more interesting and relevant was this website. Obviously played there more factors, but the number of backlinks counted when the heaviest.

The philosophy behind this is simple: if the content of a website get backlinks from other webmasters, this content must be interesting. More backlinks, higher rankings in the search results. This made the Google search results so much more relevant than all its competitors.

This philosophy was also the breeding ground of the whole link building hype. Webmasters were suddenly not dutifully waiting until they got a backlink from their fellow webmasters. The time had come to collect backlinks either build your website. It also made no difference where the backlinks came from. More was better, that was the only thing that mattered.

Listen to Google and stop with link building
Google also began to see that more and more websites trying to abuse of their algorithm. So it happened that were not shown the most relevant websites with the most backlinks. This goes against everything Google ever grown and so they had to take measures. The first major step is to put the Google Penguin update. After this update of the algorithm is stricter looked at the quality of the backlinks.

Stop collecting backlinks:

- buy link building packages
- your website to as many directories as possible to sign up,
- Article marketing spam,
- making link wheels and link pyramids,
- use of link farms,
- forum spam,
- profile spam,
- comment spam,
- to make use of blog networks

Usually these types of link building are deployed via special software packages. These packages often generate up to thousands of such links automatically.

Backlinks are still important !!

With the statement "stop link building" is not to say that backlinks are no longer important. Backlinks still have an added value in the ranking of your website. However, the focus should be on getting backlinks because you have interesting content, you have a good job or get a recommendation. In other words, because you have earned a backlink.

We have all seen all that blog networks full of ugly content and plenty of no relevant links pointing out, was hitted and out of business.
Submitting to hundreds of low-quality general directories do not work, as well.
Links from sites relevant to the topic of your site are great way. People often do not remember that there are quality niche directories exist, focused on topic - great way to get quality link from.
Good and quality content also attract some natural links, pointing to your content.
