Getting authority site back links isn’t rocket science, but you do need to know the basics of Search Engine Optimization and blog commenting.
The first step to getting authority site back links, is to install the SEO Quake add on for the Mozilla Firefox browser.
Once installed you can use the “authority codes” in Google search, to find a listing of sites in that category. Either .edu, .gov, .com, or .org sites.
The basic code is: site:.com inurl:blog “post a comment” -“comments closed” -“you must be logged in” “ADD YOUR KEYWORD”
You can replace the .com with .gov, .edu, or .org at the beginning of the search query as you see fit and insert your keyword or keyword phrase in that parens group.
Using the SEO Quake add on, select good sites that are related to the topic of your site and that accept urls in the comment section.
Some sites accept comments and don’t specifically accept urls, but will accept use of html in the comments section. You can include your url in these sites by inserting a hyperlink with your keyword phrase.
The “Name” field in the comment box is very important, because this will be the “anchor text” that links back to your website
Write a compelling useful and interesting comment that can’t be regarded as spam by anyone and include your website url.
Make sure that you add value with your comment, give your opinion, and be a little controversial if you like, to gin up a bit more interest. Controversy is fine to a point, just don’t overdo it.
When getting authority site back links, avoid spammy comments. Spam is easy to detect and generally looks something like this:
“Nice article”
“Great post!”
“Thanks for sharing”
“You rock!”
Whatever way you comment, DON’T DO THAT!
As soon as your comment is accepted by the moderator, “ping” the URL of the site using any of the free pinging services that are available online.
Pinging lets the search engine spiders know that a change or addition has been made to the page and calls in the spiders to return to the page so they can spider it for new content and any outbound links, which you just created.

After you’ve pinged the pages that you commented on; Google will spider the sites, discover your link, and give your page credit for a quality in bound link, usually within just a few hours.
Getting authority site back links the quick and easy way is much better than using “black hat” techniques that get you ranked high for only a short period of time.

Whatever the type of website you are running, you need to learn how to avoid being classified as a spam site by the search engines.
Although auto blogging has become an outstanding way for newcomers to generate long term earnings in this current economy, one of the biggest problems with auto blogging sites is their penchant for being classified as a spam site by the search engines.
If this happens, your website could be delisted from the search engines or in the worst case scenario, your site could be “blacklisted”, rendering your domain useless.
If you become blacklisted, the search engines basically ignore your site, regardless of what new content or revisions you make to it.
When this happens, you might as well just let your domain expire.
You can avoid being classified as a spam site by heeding the following practices and making sure you don’t leave a “footprint” on all of your auto blogging websites:
A “footprint” is something that is common to all of your sites. Something that makes your site easily identified as an automatically generated website.
- Always use some sort of unique content to what is generated by the auto blog site, in order to avoid leaving a readily identifiable footprint. What generally flags a spam site to the search engines, is the lack of unique content. A good bit of unique content added to the site will definitely help you in this regard.
- Use unique meta tags and keywordsIf you make sure that every page has unique meta tags, title, and keywords; it will also help with the search engines. Most of the spam sites use the same meta tags, title and keywords throughout the site.
- Vary the types of templates and layouts that you use on your auto blogging sites Many spam site simply use the same default WordPress template. This is a dead giveaway to the search engines.
- Don’t host more than 10 auto blogging sites on a single hosting account When Google sees 200+ auto blogs on the same IP address; they will shut you down in a heartbeat.
- Use more than one host for your auto blogging sites especially if you have a large number of sites. This gives you several IP addresses that will avoid leaving a footprint for the search engines to detect.
- To really help avoid being classified as a spam site, you need to make sure your auto blogs provide valuable information in addition to what other auto blogs provide.To do this you need to mix up a combination of unique content, PLR content, and content “scraped” from sites like Amazon, article directories, Yahoo Answers, etc. to help the search engines realize that your site is valuable.
At the very least, always make sure that your Home Page is unique.
The need to learn how to avoid being classified as a spam site by the search engines, is extremely valuable regardless of what type of website you have.
