Link building is the most important part of the overall SEO of your site. You simply can’t miss it out. However, there are certain silly mistakes that you can make even if you are an expert in the SEO field.

You’ll find experts giving you most effective and result oriented SEO tips; however, they sometimes miss out telling you about these mistakes which prove to be harmful in the long run. So, it’s a must for you to be aware of all the deadly mistakes that can prove formidably disastrous for your success and can ruin your entire SEO efforts.

Below are the link building tips to help you keep top 5 mistakes at bay.

Avoid to get several links from the same IP address.

Some people make a real great mistake by getting all their links from the same IP address; it is not at all a good idea as the search engines become suspicious about them. Especially when you undergo all your link building process like submitting articles at different article directories, publishing your posts on the blogs, or any other at the same time, you should check the IP address of the sites you submit to make sure they are not the same.

Do not build your backlinks too fast.

This is again a wrong practice. Of course, if you are getting the links naturally, it is not at all wrong to get loads of them in less time. Say, you published a wonderful content and it went viral, people loved it madly and soon everyone started knowing it and linking to it. But then, such a thing doesn’t happen everyday, does it?

Some people make a mistake of getting thousands of links in a day or two, which increases the severity of the search engine scrutiny. So make sure that your link building process is slow and gradual and demonstrates consistency.

Don’t get all your links from same sources.

If you get all or almost all your links from the same sources or same kind of sources, this simply doesn’t look natural. Thus, it becomes essential to get the links from variety of sources. Suppose, you eat the same kind of food and wear the same kind of dress all the time with no alteration at all, will it look natural? Surely, it won’t so it is with your link building. So, you should always have various different sites involved in your link building process.

Use variety of Anchor Text.

First and foremost thing about the same anchor text usage is – it looks badly unnatural – Perhaps you aren’t aware but on using the same anchor text again and again for a long time may get you bad ranking and if things get still worse, you may even be sandboxed. (Well, don’t worry, the sandbox thing usually doesn’t happen, but in rare cases it can happen.) So the best thing to do is to go for anchor text variation from time to time. Using your major keywords in variation can be a great help.

Say no to link buying.

What link buyers and sellers generally think is that they are smart enough to keep doing this without getting caught but they forget that Google is much smarter than they are and can catch them anytime. And once you get caught, your site surely gets sandboxed, and earns bad reputation.

Even if you play safe and don’t get caught, there is another big risk that the sites from where you bought the links were nothing but scam sites and you simply get temporary or no result at all from all your link buying. So, why spending money for something that neither guarantees result nor is an ethical thing to practice?

Hope, you’ll take special care to not to make the 5 mistakes mentioned in the above link building tips. This will prove really beneficial in your online success.
