Article Backlinks - The Pros And Cons


For this article, I want to talk a little bit about article backlinks. Many people swear by these backlinks, and for good reason. They can really work from my experiences! But what exactly are the advantages and disadvantages to using these types of backlinks? This is something I will explore a bit in this article.

To start, let me explain what article backlinks are for those of you who don't know. Backlinks in itself are links back to your website. A lot of people like these, because they can lead to increases in your search engine rankings. Article backlinks specifically are links that you place in articles that you post on various websites. This can have many advantages. Let's take a look at them.

First off, when creating article backlinks, you are placing the backlinks on sites that encourage your link. They want your link to be on their website! This means that as long as the website stays around, your backlinks likely will as well. This is definitely a big plus with these backlinks. A lot of people worry about their backlinks sticking. With these backlinks though, you know your efforts won't go to waste.

Another advantage to article backlinks is that article directories are usually indexed frequently by the search engines. The search engines will often be looking for new articles in the directories, and it is likely that your article and backlinks will be found fairly quickly. This is another positive as many people might otherwise have to spend weeks just waiting for their backlinks to be found.

Finally, one more advantage to article backlinks is that a lot of people may read your articles and click your links. In addition to increasing search engine rankings, you may also get a lot of traffic through these backlinks in itself from your articles. This is a win-win in my opinion and makes these backlinks all the more powerful.

Now, what about the downsides? To be honest, I don't find there to be many downsides with these backlinks. It may take a bit longer to manually create your backlinks, and you will have to have an article to go with it. However, this is small in comparison to the effects that the links may have.

In all, I hope you have learned a bit more about article backlinks and I hope you have figured out if they are right or not for your website. Good luck!
