How to Get Backlinks with Zemanta

Are you trying to figure out how to get backlinks to your site? Are you tired of writing article after article for backlinks? Me too.  I have found another great backlink tool to add to my arsenal, and this one takes no additional work than just writing your blog posts.

Remember a while back I mentioned how Zemanta was THE must have add on for bloggers? Well, it turns out I was more right than I even knew.

Over the last couple weeks I have been using Zemanta on this blog, and my others. I recently started noticing more and more entries in my “incoming links” section of my dashboard. I did not recognize where they were coming through so I clicked through to check them out. To my surprise they were all “related websites” posted by Zemanta on other people’s websites.

Here’s what makes this so great, besides getting nice one way backlinks.

1. The anchor text for your link is the title of your post. If you choose your titles wisely, using good keywords, you will have a perfectly anchored backlink to your site.

2. Zemanta pulls posts that are relevant and related to the page they are being supplied for. This means your perfectly anchored backlink will also be on a perfectly related page!

This is the holy grail of how to get backlinks. They are one way, on a real site, that is relevant to your link, and it is perfectly anchored with YOUR keywords.  It doesn’t get much better than that, and all of this just for using a little tool called Zemanta that makes your life as a blogger easier anyway!

If you haven’t started using Zemanta yet, I sure don’t know why. It’s totally free and seems to be giving me some seriously awesome benefits.
