The concept of getting free traffic from Google and the other major search engines, sounds like a great idea, that is until you realize that you have to go and build all the one way back links to your pages in order to get them to rank.
Finding one way back links that pass page rank on to your site can be difficult and somewhat of a tedious task. Therefore in this post I am just going to give you a list of free one way back links. Before I do though I would like to point out that when building back links it is a good idea to have a variety of them coming from different sources, as this looks more natural in Google eyes.
There are differing opinions on whether ‘off page’ SEO, which is what gaining one way back links is, done badly can hurt your rankings or not. I know some people that claim it does not, and their reasoning is that if it did, then the internet would turn to chaos, because you could build ‘dodgy’ back links to your competitors sites in order to hurt their position in the search results, and in turn they could do the same to you!!
Other people however believe that building links too fast doesn’t look natural to the search engines and can draw a penalty. How fast is too fast? Well I am not sure but I think if you are building 100’s of links a day to one page and not remaining consistent at that pace, then I think that might be a problem.
I can see the argument from both sides and therefore I always play it safe and build links at a steady pace, and I do not buy one way back links from link farms.
With that said here are some sites that you can use to get free one way back links to your site now.
Directories
I don’t spend too much time submitting my sites to directories, as a lot of the free ones don’t allow me to submit deep links to pages inside my site, ie. anything other than the home page.
However they are still a useful place to get easy free one way back links, so here a few to get you started:
- dmoz.org
- open-site.org
- popsz.com
- e-mediate.org
- bloggernity.com
- directory.brainontology.org
- onlinedirectoryweb.info
- femina.com
- viesearch.com
Education and Government (.edu/.gov)
One Way Back Links
In case you didn’t know already, not every link that you create holds the same value in Google eyes. A link from a .edu domain, or a .gov domain are worth a lot more for your search rankings. However these websites, that allow you to get 
a back link from them, are hard to find.
With that said though, here is a quick tip on how to search for them in Google:
By typing in the following search query and replacing ‘keyword phrase goes here’ with your actual keywords, you should find wordpress blogs that are on .edu or .gov domains.
“keyword phrase goes here” “powered by wordpress” site:.edu
“keyword phrase goes here” “powered by wordpress” site:.gov
Keep in mind that not all of the websites you find will allow you to post comments and not all of them will be follow links, so you will have to test them out.
Article Site One Way Back Links
Writing and submitting articles to top article sites is also a good way to diversify your back link portfolio. I recommend however that you get a tool like Magic Article Rewriter and Submitter (eamarketingtools.com) to help you do this. The reason being that writing content is VERY time consuming and working smarter with a tool like this will speed things up super fast.
The great thing about article spinners like Magic Article Rewriter, is that you can use the content for other sites, and not just submit them to article directories. I will explain this in more detail in the next section when we look at web 2.0 sites.
For now though here is a list of top article directories for easy one way back links:
- ezinearticles.com
- buzzle.com
- goarticles.com
- articledashboard.com
- a1articles.com
- articlecity.com
Web 2.0 One Way Back Links
Another way to get free back links is to post content onto web 2.o sites. These sites are free to join and allow you to build pages within them, and much like article sites, contain your links.
As I mentioned above, when I have written and spun an article in Magic Article Rewriter at: eamarketingtools.com (sponsored affiliate link). I them take a few of the 100’s of unique copies of the original article that it automatically generates for me, and simply copy and past them into other web 2.o sites. This saves me a lot of time!!
I also advise you to make sure you read the guidelines for each site and make sure you abide by their rules, as rules vary from site to site.
Below is a list of great sites that you can participate in:
- squiddoo.com
- spongefish.com
- blog.co.k
- easyjournal.com
- tumblr.com
- friendster.com
- youbundle.com
- multiply.com
Social Bookmarking Back Links
Getting links from social bookmarking sites is possibly the easier way to get links, but keep in mind that if all your links are set up from the same IP address, Google knows this and I assume pay less attention to them. However if you can get other people to bookmark your sites, then that can help.
There are 100’s of social bookmarking sites, however once again, here are a few to get you started:
- del.icio.us
- spurl.com
- digg.com
- linkagogo.com
- backflip.com
- technorati.com
- blinklist.com
- diigo.com
- folked.com
- jumptags.com
- propeller.com
- mixx.com
There are many more ways to get quality one way back links, however I hope this post has helped you in some way with the task. If you have more examples to share I encourage you to add a comment below so we can all benefit, because as I mentioned in my last post, networking is key, so lets help each other out.

Good information. In particular the Tip on finding .gov links.
I also like to use automation tools for the techniques your recommending.
Hey Matt,
Thanks for the ideas, I picked up a couple of new ones.
I have tried using Squidoo (built 7 lenses) but none of them show up as back links to my site. It’s been almost 2 months since I built them,the sites (lens) are indexed, and I don’t see any nofolllow in th HTML. I click the link in Squidoo to make sure it works and the lens shows in my host stats as a referring site.
I have verified backlinks with Google, Yahoo, a Firefox plug in and a couple of other sources – they don’t show up anywhere. Have I missed anything that I can check.
Slow is ok, but if I am doing something incorrectly I don’t want to continue it for 6 months.
Matt Carter Reply:
October 29th, 2009 at 9:26 am
Hi Mike,
There are a few things to consider, the first is that those link indexing tools that show you how many links Google and Yahoo have found for your site, NEVER show all the links, so this is not an accurate way of telling if the link is working. Essentially if Google have indexed the Lens, then they will also have followed and indexed the links to your page. The only problem is when Google can’t find the page itself, then you have to help Google to do that by either using RSS aggregators or you can write a Twitter post about your page and that should help get Google bots over there.
In your situation I think you are fine, since you said they have in fact already indexed the squidoo lens. Just remember that multiple Squidoo lens to the same page isn’t really going to do that much more than 1, as Google switched onto this a while ago and introduced the Squidoo Slap, when people started to build 100’s of lenses for SEO.
Keep up the good work
Matt

Thanks Matt. As Awlays another great post. I like the tip on .edu and .gov although they will not work for every niche.
on your article site list, you have buzzle listed 2 times.
I was told that using social bookmarking does not help much with seo rankings any more, they are only good for the direct traffic you get from those sites. is this true, or have I been mislead?
Matt Carter Reply:
October 29th, 2009 at 9:19 am
Hey James,
That is a very good point that you made about Social Bookmarking. I think the key is to make things look as natural as possible, so if all your link from bookmarking sites are made by YOU, then Google will know this is forged. However if people are bookmarking your pages from all over the world, then this will look like natural voting from REAL people, and Google like that. So how do you do that? Well I use a tool called Social Media Science which is really good, or there is other services.
So to answer your question directly, i think doing it the way I described is probably going to work best, but I still think bookmarks alone help to some degree adn also help you get indexed by Google faster too.
Thanks for your quality input!!

Nice article. Getting decent backlinks is a real struggle for a lot of people.
Also good to try other social networking sites as most of them allow a link in your profile and some let you put anchor-text links in your “about me” box.

Great post. Not quite sure how to actually do some of them, but I will definitely have to look into them a bit further. Love the one about the back links from Gov Blogs. Keep up the good work, Matt.
Yes Robert. Those are great points on the gov and edu domains.
Backlinking is so fundamental to good SEO.
It is important for anyone new to SEO to know the difference between a no-follow link and a link that will be followed by Google. Links are good for traffic in general but for SEO purposes only some links are of real value and make sure you don’t have links on link farms or your PR could get hurt.
Matt Carter Reply:
October 29th, 2009 at 9:06 am
Hi Bill,
Yes you are right you have to make sure the link is do follow, however I do have friends who are far more advanced at this than me and they are claiming that some no follow links are still passing page rank. Google is a tough one to work out!! Thanks for your comments

Hi Matt
Can you use these links for a so called ‘static site’?
I’ve got my first website up and have got all pages indexed and am now ranking in top positions for some of my pages.
(Down to unique content )
I haven’t started artcle mktg yet and have only 1 link!
But I can’t take advantage of web 2.0 so am just about to put a wordpress blog on a subdomain.
I have put a blog up on Google
http://germanshepherddogsnow.blogspot.com
but I have only just found out about pinging!
So no traffic or comments (learning is not easy?)

Hi Graham,
Not 100% sure what you are asking me there, but yes if you have a static HTML page you can use these backlinks. Its good to hear that you are ranking in good places for your keywords already!!! that is great, well done. I know learning is not easy, but you’ll get there if you stick at it, Internet marketing is hard work for the first 12-24 months, once you get past that it gets easier.

In relation to Magic Spinner I tried it and somehow one must be careful in spinning articles as some of my articles were knocked back, with the site owner suggesting to be “Better Spinner Content Submitter”. In short some of the articles did not make much sense when spun.
I guess got to watch out for the spun articles that make some sense!
Thanks For Great Information that you put out. I appreciate this very much.

Hey Peter,
Great to hear from a fellow Aussie!!
yes I think Magic article is great. The best way to use it is to use the submission software AND also to take the spun articles they give you and use them on other sites, like Squidoo etc…this way you don’t have to keep writing new articles all the time, its a BIG time saver. The key to link building is to get a variety of links, from different places, not just article sites. This looks more natural to the search engines.
If I were you I would also go and get a subscription to Angela and Pauls links as they will help your rankings immensely!!! here’s my affiliate links:
http://www.easybacklinkbuilder.com/index.php?afid=519
http://www.pjsqualitybacklinks.com/index.php?afid=502
They are only $5 and $7 a month each, and all I can say is that they have made a HUGE difference to my rankings, more than any one thing has, trust me. I am not just saying this get a commission because that is not my style at all, you can sign up through your own link, I really don’t mind, but just do it, because this is one of my best tricks.
If you need any help ever Peter you are welcome to email me as I genuinely want to see ALL my subscribers do well and I know it is hard when you are learning.
Cheers

Hi Matt,
Recently, in the last couple of months, I started to subscribe to your list. Great info and I had attended a webinar on Google and page rank and the bidding algorithms etc. One of the things that was deemed important for page rank was .edu and .gov links but no one said where to go to get them. Thanks so much for all of your link info!!! I am just starting article marketing and found a FREE tool which, for now, is working really well. It’s called simply-free-article-spinner.com. I’m using this with excellent success (along with dictionary.com’s thesaurus) to create multiiple versions of my original. Also found out that before submitting to multiple sites it’s better to submit to EzineArticles first, wait a few days for their acceptance, then submit to the others. I would appreciate any feedback…THANK YOU!

Firstly thank you for the fantastic lessons.
1) Is there another way to pay for the below services besides paypal. I can’t find a contact detail to get in touch with the web masters.

http://www.pjsqualitybacklinks.com/index.php?afid=502
2) When we search .edu .gov sites most of them have a no follow policy and hence we waste alot of time searching. In fact I have had no luck getting a link done having a follow on policy enabled.
Cheers,
Vishal
Matt Carter Reply:
November 1st, 2009 at 9:57 am
Hi Vishal,
No there is no option but paypal, but you don’t need a paypal account to use paypal, you can still use your credit card as normal, just select the pay with credit card option.
Also as I mentioned in my post it is tough work finding some .edu and .gov that have the no follow turned off, however I have found a few recently, so you will just have to put in the time. Maybe someone else reading this post knows how to add to the search string I put in the post to include searching for do follow only.

Hey Matt,
Great post, but I’d like to add to what you where talking about at the start of the post regarding build links to fast.
As far as i was aware, If you build your links at a fast rate, then there is a good chance that an actual person/representative at google will come to look at your site. And so long as the content on your site is good quality and you’re not doing anything dodgy/illegal, then you shouldn’t receive a penalty what so ever.
Besides, It wouldn’t be logical to have a “program” that automatically penalised a new site for getting links to fast.
All the best

Also on a separate topic how long does it take for google to give your site a pr rating.

There are differing views on duplicate content, some say it is a myth others disagree. I think it is
not a good idea to place duplicate content on your money sites, like you blog. Best to stick with
original stuff, or at least rewritten stuff if not your own ideas.
Thanks for the extra sites also

Hi again Matt;
Can you please tell me what the Toekn button does on Magic Article Rewriter does. I understand about replacing the words with synonyms but unclear of what the “Use Tokens” does.
Thanks,
Ed
Matt Carter Reply:
January 11th, 2010 at 3:34 pm
Hey Ed,
The tokens is the same as replacing a word, but what you do is save a certain word, like for example: Car, and save it as a token and tell the token to replace all the occurences of the word car, with words you tell it to.
So if I have car, I might save a token for ‘car’ that were: Vehicle, Auotmobile, hatchback. This way when you have a new article you don’t have to change the word “car” every time, all you do is hit the token button and bingo, every time the word ‘car’ would be replaced,
Hope that helps
Cheers
Matt
Matt, Thanks for all the helpful information, I have implemented several of the ideas you have commented on and I am seeing great results form them. Thanks again!
This concept is GOLD!
“keyword phrase goes here” “powered by wordpress” site:.edu
“keyword phrase goes here” “powered by wordpress” site:.gov
Talk about Law of attraction – I was asking this very question to myself yesterday trying to figure how to get google to identify edu and gov sites that will allow for posting comments and a backlink.
Does it matter if the edu/gov site has “nofollow”?
Oh, I also use TrafficGeyser as a tool to automate my backlinking for Socialbookmarking, Video, Articles, Blogs and Social Networking. Saves me hours and the ROI is really good.

Hi Matt, nice advice. Thanks. I have built some 30 backlinks to my friends site who promised me to pay 150$ if his site occupy any slots in the front page of Google SERP for a medium competitive Keyword phrase. But none of those 30 backlinks are counted yet and its over a month now. I deeply doubt what’s going on.
I have varied anchor texts in all articles and I have also submitted the site to some free link directories too. But no use so far. Please help me…..
My friend’s domain name doesn’t contain the keyword he want to rank for. But all of his competitors have. So is that the reason for him not to rank for that keyword even though he has over 200 backlinks to his site but his competitors have only some 70 backlinks or so.
Please clear these 2 doubts….
And thanks in advance..

Hey Thoufeeq,
It is very difficult for me to tell why your site is not rankings without seeing. However I think you should not vary the anchor text
when you are only building a low number of backlinks as it will actually make it harder to rank, and also its not the number of backlinks
it the quality of them that counts.
All the best
Matt
Thank you very much for your reply, Matt.
And I have one more question to ask U. If my domain name doesn’t contain the keyword phrase that am targeting, can I overcome this issue with some good backlinks instead?? OR that inefficiency would remain like that for all time?
I don’t know the significance of the “domain name with keyword” in the present situation, but want to know : Can I overcome this problem if I get some good backlinks in the coming days so that I can beat my competitors who are ranking already with the exact keyword in their domain name??
Please help..
And thanks again

September 4th, 2010 at 8:09 pm
Hey Thoufeeq
The keyword in the domain is a small factor for SEO, I outrank domains all the time that have the keyword in their domain and mine doesn’t, it’s more about the backlinks and the quality of backlinks too.

stumbled across one of my subdomains, to date their networking exploded and I am getting regular genuine comments/trackbacks and also others backlinking,
count 1000+ and counting in two weeks from around 9th of May 2011 granted they have also delved into 4 other subdomains of mine and there is also duplicate urls which I trash.
So how good are ?
Hi Matt,
Great article. I regularly use Folkd, Digg and Diigo to good effect. I also find Reddit is a good one too. I do find Mixx a bitt odd though. They seem to kick me off after a while for some reason.
Identi.ca is also a cracker
Regards
Jon
Thanks Matt!!
This is an awesome resource! I bookmarked it on delicious and Safari. Hopefully more people check it out. Once I tweak some pages, I’m gonna put it to great use!
Thanks again! Keep up the good work.
Hey Matt, thanks for the tips on where to get more unique backlinks. I am currently working on this now, so your advice really helps 🙂 I also give this type of blog building and blog marketing advice on my blog. Thanks!
Matt,
Thanks for this list. Like all of your tips, it’s immensely helpful.
