With black hat SEO steadily becoming a thing of the past in the SEO world, the demand for white hat link building techniques is very real. But how do you start with it when you\u2019re absolutely new to it? Unique SEO Link Building<\/p>\n

Well, if you\u2019re reading this, then you\u2019re in luck, as we will be teaching you how you can use advanced search operators to make Google itself provide you with great link building opportunities.<\/p>\n

Reverse Engineering Your Competitor\u2019s\u00a0<\/strong>Back-links<\/b><\/p>\n

Perhaps the best way to find some highly effective link building opportunities is to simply research your competitor\u2019s back-links. To do this, you need to perform a Google search by putting in the following search operator into the search box:<\/p>\n

Link:xyz.com -site:xyz.com<\/p>\n

When you perform this search by using your competitor site\u2019s URL instead of xyz.com, you find all the back-links minus their internal links, which is basically the links they have gotten from their own site.<\/p>\n

Guest Post Opportunities<\/strong><\/p>\n

If there\u2019s one type of white hat link building opportunities pretty much everyone in the SEO community learns<\/a> and is aware of, it\u2019s guest posting.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s for a reason. There are few types of links that can be as effective as guest post links. So let\u2019s find out below how you can find these opportunities in your niche.<\/p>\n

Keyword \u201cguest post\u201d<\/p>\n

Keyword \u201cguest blog\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cwrite for us<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201ccontribute to this site\u201d<\/p>\n

And so on as the info-graphic has listed. Also as you can see in the info-graphic, a good idea is to replace the \u201ckeyword\u201d part in the above search operators with a competitor\u2019s name who\u2019s doing well in your niche. It will help find guest post opportunities that they have already used.<\/p>\n

Resource Link Building<\/strong><\/p>\n

Resource link building is basically reaching out to people in your niche that manage resource pages which have all the useful websites in the niche listed as resources on them. Needless to say, these are some of the best links you can get but you need to have really high-quality, well-researched content on your site for this to work as the webmasters managing these pages will not link out to mediocre content.<\/p>\n

You can find such resource pages in your niche by using the following search operators:<\/p>\n

Keyword \u201ctop resources\u201d\/\u201dtop 10 resources\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201ctop tools\u201d\/\u201dtop 10 tools\u201d (this could be really useful if you have developed a useful tool for your niche).<\/p>\n

Keyword \u201cuseful sites\u201d\/\u201dinteresting sites\u201d<\/p>\n

You can find many more of these in the info-graphic here.<\/p>\n

Sponsored\/Paid Reviews<\/strong><\/p>\n

These are basically another version of guest posts. The only difference between them and guest posts is that these posts are paid for, which is a practice growing more common lately than it has been before.<\/p>\n

So if you\u2019re not finding luck with guest posts, these can be a great alternative (as they are much easier to get). Use the following search operators to find them through Google:<\/p>\n

Keyword intext:\u201dthis is a sponsored post\u201d<\/p>\n

Keyword intext:\u201dthis was a sponsored post\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201dthis is a sponsored review\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201dthis was a sponsored review\u201d<\/p>\n

The review ones are particularly useful when you\u2019re trying to promote a product you sell or have launched. There are a few other search operators as well here.<\/p>\n
