Ram8349 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 So everyone suggests one good way to build backlinks is to find popular blogs of the same niche, and make regular comments on related articles etc. with link to your own web site. What is the best way to find such related blogs? How do you know if the links they allow is dofollow or nofollow? How effective is this link building method? Has it worked out for you?

Hardison Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 You can use Technorati to find the high authority blogs in your niche. SimilarSites.com can also help you find blogs in your niche. Plus you can also put in the web address and it will show sites that are similar to it. locke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locke Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Google search for keywords related to your niche. Let's say you're selling accesories for the new Google Nexus 7 tablet - so you'd go to Google and search for "Nexus 7 case" "Nexus 7 earphones" "Nexus 7 apps" and stuff like that. You could also add the words "buy" and "cheap" since those are common keywords. Another method would be to search directories in categories similar to yours.

bauss Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 You can also use Google Blog Search feature. Just head to http://www.google.com/blogsearch and search the blogs for your niche. You can also find the recently updated blogs by selecting the appropriate time frame from the options available in the next screen. Thanks for sharing, that's a nice tool. You can also add "do follow" in front of the keyword to find do follow blogs. I wouldn't worry about if a blog is do follow or no follow though, just focus on building links.

bigbigfan Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Blogsearch is being deprecated by Google, you may have noticed that most blogs being shown do not have a public comment section? You either need to subscribe to comment or there are no comments, Google got tired of people using blog search just to find places to spam.

CyberGenius Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 I recently saw this(http://www.dropmylink.com), It is used for searching for blogs that offer do-follow links. And it can also be used to search for a specific TLD(e.g .edu). All one needs to do is to enter a particular keyword, select the kind of site and TLD you want, and you'll be redirected to google for results.

Nymph Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Sites like StumbleUpon, where you are given a random array of popular websites, forums, and blogs in particular categories to sift through, can be useful in this endeavor whenever Google or the other search engines fail to meet your needs. I personally use it, and when I 'stumbleupon' a blog or forum in my niches, I tend to relate my posts to the content and be rather thoughtful about it. This way, even if the webmaster cleans out the comments every so often to rid of freeloaders, they often do not mind my contribution with a backlink to my respective site.

Isabellas2007 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Actually I have found searching for Blogs with Google is the best way. I know this sounds bad, but I usually just Google the information and end up posting comments on the blogs that it pulls up for me. Without this, I would use the other search engines, but using Google lets me know which sites Google feels are good ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themonk3y Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 In order to check if the links in the comment section are no follow right click on the page and click on view page source. If you are using chrome the shortcut is Ctrl+U now scroll down to the comments section and look for the "nofollow" tags in the links.

limcid Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 StumbleUpon is a very good source if your niche happens to match some of their content. The key benefit of StumbleUpon is that their sites are listed based on user feedback and ratings so the content tends to be especially relevant and of high quality. You rarely find junk in a StumbleUpon search result. I would imagine backlinking to anything that's ranking in their search engine would be beneficial. It would also be a very good resource to submit your own site to get it listed and ranked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainman Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) The best places to find similar blogs to comment on is on blog directories. Tehcnorati has already been mentioned so I'll suggest a few more: Networked Blogs. Bloggeries. Blogged.com Blog Catalog Bloggapedia Blog Fusion Most of the above-mentioned directories lists blogs by category so it will be pretty is to find the right one and choose which blogs you'll try to get backlinks from.

srilatha28 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Research keywords related to your niche using tools like Google Keyword Planner or paid tools. Conduct Google searches using those keywords and identify blogs that consistently rank highly in the search results. Explore blog directories like AllTop or Blogarama that categorize blogs by topic. Check social media platforms for influential bloggers or popular blogs in your niche. Analyze the backlink profiles of your competitors using tools like Ahrefs or Moz. Engage in online communities and forums related to your niche to connect with fellow bloggers and industry professionals. When approaching popular blogs for link building, focus on building genuine relationships, providing value, and offering high-quality content that aligns with their audience. By fostering mutually beneficial connections, you can establish successful link-building opportunities within your niche. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
