After taking a little leave of absence I decided to come back to remind you of a few virtually untapped markets in the link building process. Some of these may seem like common knowledge, but honestly ask yourself if you truly utilize their full power.

Site Reviews

Try searching for “your main keyphrase”+site reviews. You may end up with more results than you’d imagine. Getting others to review your site is a great way to build a TON of traffic as well as quality links. I used to run an online text based game. I sent out a ton of request emails to game sites and game magazines. I managed to pull 70,000+ links that many still to this day stand. It was easy and it bumped the game up several thousand players a day with over 30,000 unique visitors/day. All from getting other people to review my site for me.

Product Reviews

This is crazy. Believe it or not a TON of shopping cart scripts never filter html codes out of their product reviews. Find these scripts. Do unique searches that identify sites using those scripts(ie. “powered by shop super script”). More to come on this later in a future Blue Hat Technique when I can explain the proper way to do this without spamming.
Testimonials

You should already know about this, but I’ll say it anyways. Submit testimonials to people complimenting them on their websites. Sometimes they will post your review along with a link to your website. I built a real estate website pretty large using strictly this technique. This particularly works with saturated markets like real estate. Every Joe Shmoe REALTOR will link to you if you tell them their cock is big.

Note: Incase I never mentioned it; I absolutely hate real estate agents. I really do consider them the Down Syndrome Children of business people.
