Link Building Still Vital for SEO

Doing my daily routine, the first thing is my analytics accounts then the latest news on SEO updates, and then my world news on everything that is happening around them.

This morning I came across a rather interesting article on Link Building. The article is actually about “The Death of Social Bookmarking in SEO?” but I loved the part where it mentioned the difficulty of link building and of which I totally agree with, link building has never been easy but now the game has changed so much, it’s on a completely different level now.


“Back when link building meant creating 50 links in a day with citations, social bookmarking, email spamming while wearing a giant, leather, old FUBU jersey with DJ Jazzy Jeff playing, I thought link building was difficult. But, nowadays, it’s even more difficult than that…and requires less sportswear.”

The link building game has changed considerably compared to back in the day when quantity meant everything to now when quality is the key driver for an online strategy’s ongoing success. An SEO campaign without a link building strategy is not complete because link building still plays a vital role in every SEO campaign.

Link Building Tip: Have a good content marketing strategy and any web content used must be unique, of high quality and well written. Most importantly, make sure that links look natural and not forced into the content and that’s where “well written” comes in.

We’ve pretty much done every kid-friendly activity Cape Town has to offer—play parks, aquariums, museums, you name it! But now, I want to explore something different: food. I want my kids to grow up comfortable with different types of food, flavors, and dining experiences. Why? Because I remember how nerve-wracking it was as a young adult to go out with friends or colleagues and not know what to order. I didn’t want to embarrass myself, so I often stuck to the same safe choices. But food should be an adventure, not a stressor! That’s why I’m on a mission to find the best buffet restaurants in Cape Town —places where my kids can try different foods in a relaxed and fun setting. A buffet is perfect because they can explore new flavors without the pressure of committing to just one dish. What I’m Looking for in a Great Buffet Restaurant Since I’m taking the whole squad along, I have a ...
