100k Job Blogging From Home

Have a look at this site: QuickSprout.  Can you see my link there?

It took me about 20 minutes. This is how I did it: When I first got on to this site, I noticed it’s got a PR5, and its “Top Commentators” list give out Dofollow links to commentators site (If you don’t know what dollow means yet, please see my previous post), and to my surprise that I only need to make 5 comments to jump into the list.

After made 6 comments in 20 minutes, my link jumped into 4th place of the list. I actually spent most of the time reading the posts there. It is a very good blog with a lot of fresh ideas. A link on this blog is certainly worth your effort, and you don’t need too much work to achieve this.

That’s the beauty of comment back linking. It’s free, and it’s one way linking. Use this method, I’ve got 1 link on a PR6 blog, 2 links on PR5 blogs, and 2 links on PR4 blogs and 1 link on a PR3 blog(with 31k+ subscribed users).

While my Technorati rank improved from over 1.5 mil a couple of week ago to around 500k at the time of writing, I can’t wait to see where my PR will land at during the next round of Google update.

Install my Make Money Online toolbar to find out all the blogs with my fresh free one way back links.

(P.S. Please leave meaningful comments only, as it is heavily moderated. Also please let me know if you knock me out of the list, so I can do some catch up.)

When people leave a comment on your blog, your blogging software is most likely adding the “nofollow” hyperlink attribute to it. The reason behind this is to minimize the benefit you’re giving any spammers who exploit comments or trackbacks. If spammers’ links do get search engine value back to their sites/blogs, it would be quite an incentive for them - therefore NoFollow is used to deter that. The consequence of the NoFollow hyperlink attribute is that search engines like Google either don’t follow or may follow those links off your blog,  yet don’t give any credibility or benefit on page ranking(PR) to those linking, which means the links don’t provide any search engine value to the originating site/blog.

However, if people provide legitimate, quality comments or links back to your blog, what’s the harm in giving them a little value (or love) in return? As long as you activate a spam plugin like Akismet (which does a very good job in blocking off spam comments and trackbacks) it makes sense to open your blog up a bit and give your community a little link love.

I decide to use one of the DoFollow plugins for removing NoFollow attributes on my blog, so it’s now spreading link love with DoFollow. Just a warning though, any kind of spam is strictly not tolerated.
