When To Choose Quality Link Building

To begin with it should be established what high quality link building is. There are two aspects that denote a quality link building effort: high quality content and links from quality sites. Quality content should be defined as content that is helpful as opposed to content that is of no interest. The content may be in the form of an article, a digital image, a photograph, a tool, an open source project or a whole host of other mediums. Links from quality sites are links from those site that are also of value as opposed to those that only exist for reasons such as making money from AdSense.
Producing quality content can be an extremely time consuming calling and may need to be a on-going occupation over months, years or on a permanent basis. The content would also greatly benefit from marketing, which will take even more important time. There is also the possibility that the content will not bring as much attention as planed for and thus be a poor endeavour.
When choosing the standards of quality that should be used for a link building campaign it is important to weight up how much time and/or money you are willing to spend, how competitive the search terms are that you want to rank for and how important it is to you to build reputation and referring traffic. If you are a small company with a small marketing budget you will possibly want to opt for lower quality link building strategies and choose less competitive terms. This will probably bring you the best return for you money. For example if you are a plumber from Birmingham you are probably going to benefit more from directory submission than producing lots of quality content.
The real benefit of creating quality content and then looking for quality links is that the content will attract links from sites that are more likely to be trusted and provide powerful link weight. Links from reputable websites also help to build reputation and referring traffic as opposed to lower quality links that may not provide any relevant traffic. These links are also more likely to be from sites that will have a long lifetime as opposed to say splogs – some of which may only have a few years online.
