And I know you have more things to do in your life than just link building, but if you want to do well in SEO, you have to get good at link building. And that’s why you also have your scorecard.
Here’s the thing though, before we really dive into link building, a lot of people have this misconception that it doesn’t work for hyper competitive industries.
So, here are some strategies for you.
The first strategy is competitor link building. And you can look at which links are follow links, because the follow links are the ones that you want. Those are the ones that pass juice, export it, and then open up the PDF or more so Excel sheet that you’re given.
The second strategy for successful link building is all about content backlinks. Look at your competition, who’s ranking high because a lot of them are content based websites. Look them up, look at their content, look at their backlinks report within Ubersuggest, I want you to export the CSV, and same thing. You want to sort by domain score, and then from there look for the results that are the most relevant based on page title and you could consider hitting them up.
The next one is guest posting. So, you can end up looking at any popular news website within Ubersuggest and go to their top pages and you can see all right, here are all the popular pages that they have. This is a news website. And some of them will be written by random authors. That will show you, okay, these people are accepting content from other writers. Whether they’re guest posts or not, in essence, they’re accepting content from writers.
And you don’t need to worry if a site only offers guests posting, just look for news websites that have a ton of authors. Because once you find the authors, you can then Google their name, and go find all of the places that they have written.
One thing to note is when I’m doing link building, I like looking at the traffic of the website. The more traffic it has the better it is. You don’t want to link for the sake of link or to try to rank higher just on Google, you want links because it’s good for you, it’s good press, it can improve your brand awareness, it can drive revenue.
So some other link building resources for you, and I really love this one but very few people do it is create custom images. You can do this through Canva, you can do this through Infogram, and when you publish these images on your site, you’ll notice that a lot of people will just take them and repurpose them and they won’t give you credit for them.
And if they’re taking your image, you can hit them up and ask them to link to you. So some action items for you, I want you to first download the search operators PDF so that way you have them all and you can find more link opportunities.
And two, make sure you find backlinks and fill in your link building score card which you already downloaded in the previous week. And three, I want you to join 10 Facebook groups and start joining the conversation, because if you join these Facebook groups, you’ll get to know people, and it’ll also open up more PR opportunities and more link building opportunities as well.
If you’re not sure where to find the files and you don’t see them, go to neilpatel.com/training, click on SEO Unlocked, you would want to go to module five, and you want to go to the second video under module five and underneath that video you’ll see the download file to all of these.
The link building scorecard, technically that one is under the first video in module five. Thank you for watching, and I look forward to getting you loved by Google.

on which platform do we check the Godaddy or any other website link?
This is truly straightforward info for everyone determined to pump up their organic traffic
Hey Neil, Hope you can assist with the below two questions.
1. If you write a high quality blog post to someone and include two backlinks to your site on the content (anchor texts) will that be penalized by Google?
2. If you link back to your guest posts/portfolio on your site in an "As seen on" section, will that be penalized (as reciprocal linking – because those sites have backlinks on guest posts).
Thank you!
Hii sir pls one reply
Neil, this is great but too technical for me and all the non-tech people trying to survive. Out of interest will you help me out, just for the sake of asking, because nobody out there wants to? I am aware that you are a superstar in this arena, based on your content and truly appreciate your time.
Neil-Watched this and your vid going over extensions that can get emails. So I found an article from a new site I want a backlink from and the author is a freelancer. Is it better I reach out to the freelancer or the email showing off my Hunter ext to msg the big editor directly at the news site? Thanks Neil!
Blog Authors are probably getting a crap ton of emails now. LOL

Hi Neil, If my website in Vietnamese, do I need to build links with the same language?
You remind me of my friend and y'all even look alike Neil 🤦🏽♀️
Hey, Sir I am not sure whether I would get a revert back from your side or not. But i just wanted to ask you about the traditional back link practices like I don't know why a lot of Digital marketing agencies here in India emphasize on this like they hire people just for this activities sitting on computer for whole day and doing activities like directory submission, image submission, pdf submission, question and answer postings, comment writing etc. I know these are all considered as gray hat seo practices but I mean why are these all important for ranking factor.
Hi Thank you for the knowledge you share, it’s great. May God help you grow more and accept your goodness! Ameen My doubt at 8:24 I’m not able to figure out how to do the image reverse, does this come with google images extension or is this a separate feature of another tool? I only have similar images or similar sizes option, no reverse image. Please guide
Neil, I am a huge fan of yours. I learn a ton from your youtube videos. May be once my business start growing I will come to you for your paid offers I owe you ton 🙂 I need a suggestion from you! I have a VA who does SEO for my website and building me backlinks. When I asked him what sites he is liking to! He said that's a secret that he won't share, That he has build over the years. And it sounds fishy to me right upfront #1. what's a secret in sharing links. It's internet. Unless he is buying links or using fake sites or something along these lines #2 My niche is "Holistic Plant based Relief Products". He has never dealt with this niche. So this tells me that he could probably be linking to generalize sites that are not relevant to the growth of my website/business? What is your take on this? Any tips, suggestions, ideas would be very helpful ! Thanks a ton. Have a great long weekend. Peace Ashima 🙂
omg
Hey neil
I don't understand "search operator "
What to do with that
Hello Neil, I need your opinion "urgently" in that (THANKS):
We are developing a "job search engine" for one customer, we need it only for Germany, but I thought we can show also other countries, even if we have NO interest in these countries. The purpos of showing other countries like USA, UK, etc. is ONLY for "Backlinks Building" since its easier to get Backlinks for English site that Gemran Sites, there is alo much more Whitelabe Backlinks Building Service for English sites. NOW my question: What you think about this, make sense or will not advice to do that, and show only the Jobs for and in Germany.
Thank You 🙂
I can't believe you mentioned lebron first over MJ!
where we will get outreach mail templates ?
Hey neil i didn't get the point of making sure that the backlink should be no-follow in a guest post. Please explain👍
Hi Neil, great content. I was a bit confused at 7:05, is there anywhere I can find out more on those functions?
Thanks, Neil, for one more amazing lesson.

Don't read it if you don't like truth 🙅❗ ✋
Now I feel like like…this tutorial is no more seo tutorial, tricks and tips. It's just the "ubersuggest tutorial step by step guide". I think that's the reason people have lost their interest now. Beginning was better. Ubersuggest will be no more helpful for small sites who have just started because they always try to build a platform in minimum cost as possible. People like me wanted to learn tricks for free. Sorry for it. 🙏
What do you think guys??? 🙇
I have not put a single money in the websites that I have created and if those websites come with sub domains, will those websites make money?
Please tell me …
