Honestly, I don't know a single person who'd do all link building tasks by hand these days. People save their time for better things, while activities like partner search or link verification have become a no–brainer with the right software at hand. Today LinkAssistant is the most up–to–date SEO tool for link management that you could find on the web. And if you're ready to check out what's quick and efficient link building, I'm gonna teach you how to use LinkAssistant the best way.

5.2 Your quick and sure ways to find outstanding link partnerships

Step 1. Find potential partners for your site

Just like in the 9–step algo I described, your work starts with looking for new partner websites. LinkAssistant is rich to offer you six different ways to look for link partners. Let's look closer at each one.

Partner search methods in LinkAssistant

I'd start from the first option: Find sites with link submission forms. Why? Because if a site has a link submission form, the owner is definitely interested in link exchange. And chances are huge, you'll get this link. Though it's still possible that they'll refuse to give you a backlink, this way of searching for links is a perfect fit for young sites that are just started.

On the next step LinkAssistant asks you to enter some keywords. Save your time and effort, enter at least one keyword related to your business, so that the tool doesn't offer you to link to irrelevant websites.

After that, wait a while till when the software comes up with a massive list of potential partners, look through the list and mark the partners you'll be working with.

List of found partners

If there're partners whom you didn't select, LinkAssistant will ask you if you want to "blacklist" them.

If you're sure you won't be dealing with these partners in the future, hit "Yes" to put them into a blacklist — and the software won't suggest them any more. Just in case: if you'll wish to remove them from the blacklist later, quite sure you can do this in the software preferences.

Now let's see how other ways to search for partners will help.

Find sites by keyword search
That's something we already talked about. You enter a keyword and the software looks for sites that also contain this keyword.

Find sites that link to your competitors
The idea is simple, look at this example to understand. Let's say you sell water mattresses. Your #1 competitor sells water mattresses, and sites that link to that guy might pretty well link to you. You just need to find out who these sites are — and ask them for the favor.

Find sites that already link to you
People may point links to your site not only when you ask them — but also when they just want that. Are you sure you know about all links you already have? Or maybe you've got a lot of links and wish to keep them in the software from now on? In both cases this option works: LinkAssistant will find websites that already point to you.

Harvest all URLs located on the webpages you specify
A nice way to look for relevant sites, by the way. Let's say you have a business for house designs or house plans. Your main competitor in Google is http://www.houseplans.com/ .

Here's their link directory: http://www.houseplans.com/resources.asp

A good idea is to check all sites from this directory — they will all be thematically relevant to you. And besides, you've got chances to get links from them too.

Perform a deep scan on the website you specify
That's the shotgun method as they call it. You take a site and dig into it to find each and every URL it's linking to. Then we'll see if these sites are worth getting links from.
