Our SEO link building strategy

Link building is one of the most important steps in a successful SEO Strategy. It is also one of the most labour intensive and requires a long-term approach.

Link building is the process of building links within your website and external websites, to build up the authority of your site, in the eyes of search engines.

Backlinks are hyperlinks from third party websites, referencing your business website. This is like a “vote of confidence” from one site to another.

These backlinks are a signal to Google that other websites trust your site, so in general, Google knows they can trust your website too. This will lead to your site gaining more ‘authority’ and ultimately ranking higher in organic search results.

Pass value with internal links

Internal linking is the same concept, using hyperlinks to push value and trust but occurs within your website.

Internal links are important for SEO as they help Google understand and crawl your website structure, along with helping to spread the link equity of your entire site.

White Chalk Road will create a tailored SEO link building strategy to improve your website authority and get you more leads and sales.

Internal linking & topic clusters

Internal links are hyperlinks within your website, which point to other pages on your site. Internal links are hugely important for your website, with some of the main benefits including:

  • User experience: helps visitors navigate around your site;
  • Site structure: help Google understand and index your site by showing a clear site structure;
  • Link equity: spreads out your link power across the site;
  • Topic Clusters: helping users and Google understand your area of expertise by internally linking between similar pieces of content.

Ideally, you want to make your site as easy as possible for Google to crawl, so all your web pages turn up in the index. A good topic cluster with internal link building efforts will create pillar pages (main topic) and then several other pages related to this pillar page (blog pages on related topics).

By organising your site content into topic clusters, you allow Google to easily understand your site and rank it higher. It’s also a great way to help users navigate your site and easily find additional relevant information.

To optimise your internal links and build topic clusters that have search volume and will convert, you need to put together a solid content strategy.

Inbound link building (backlinks)

Quality links are essential for a successful SEO strategy. Inbound links or ‘backlinks’ are hyperlinks on another website, which point back to your site.

Google sees this as a ‘vote of confidence’ for your website, and the more backlinks you have, the more authority your website has.

If you think about it like a reputation builder, the more people pointing at you the better.

Building inbound links is an ongoing process, which should continue throughout the life of your SEO strategy, especially if you’re focusing on SEO in a competitive industry.

Google will see and notice that you have good quality websites continuing to link to your website, which builds up the reputation of your website over time.

It is important that you only receive links from good quality websites. If you start to receive ‘bad’ links, they can have a detrimental effect on the health of your site.

Google will view spammy links as a negative ranking factor and potentially penalise your site.

A good SEO provider will run regular backlink checks on your site to ensure you do not receive any detrimental links.

Internal linking audits & strategy

Internal linking is important in your SEO strategy, as it helps Google understand and index your site, while also sharing your link equity evenly across your website. You can use the pages on your website, which have several external links (quite often your homepage) to push authority to your service pages.

If you have a lot of external links to a particular page, make sure you use these pages to link out to other relevant pages of your site. A few things to keep in mind with internal links:

Anchor text All anchor text (the clickable text housing the link) should be relevant, natural and not keyword stuffed.
Target page Needs to make sense. For example: on our ‘Search Engine Optimisation’ page we link to our ‘Technical SEO Audit’ page, as they relate to each other.
No broken links It goes without saying really, broken link building is bad for users and therefore can negatively impact user experience and SEO.

How White Chalk Road can help

White Chalk Road will put together an internal link strategy to ensure you get the best out of all the pages on your website. We use several industry tools to audit your website’s internal links and regularly check for broken internal links, to ensure you do not create a bad user experience (by a user hitting a 404 page).

Link building frequently asked questions

If over 20+ years in the industry has taught our experienced team anything, it’s that link building, both internal and inbound, are essential to boost online rankings – especially in more competitive industries.

Unfortunately, there are many ‘SEO professionals’ out there that use outdated tactics or tactics that go against Google Webmaster Guidelines. The team at White Chalk Road have been expertly trained on white-hat tactics and backlinks that not only boost your website performance but also do it in a way that follows Google Guidelines and best-practice – providing long-term SEO benefits.

If it makes sense to link to other websites then yes you should.

A good example of this is if you write an article or service page and use a statistic or fact from an external source. To prove the legitimacy of this fact or statistic to Google and users alike, you should link that statistic to its source.

However, outbound links should be used in moderation and only where appropriate.

If you’re linking out to a non-relevant website with the only intention to pass rank value and influence search results, this goes against Google’s Webmaster Guidelines and could result in your website being viewed as less-trustworthy by Google and users.

Dofollow and nofollow links are important attributes to keep in mind when creating a link building strategy. Reason being is when crawling websites and deciding how to pass link value, Google uses the dofollow and nofollow attributes to assess whether it should or should not pass ‘link juice’. A dofollow attribute is used by website owners to show Google that the source is reputable and should be passed the link value.

A nofollow link is used as a hint by Google but does not directly influence search results. These are used by website owners when they want to link out to a website for additional information or as a reference but are unsure about the legitimacy or trustworthiness of that website.

Google also introduced two new link attributes that can be used by website owners to make up the content. These links will be treated by Google as ‘hints’ when assessing their impact on search engine rankings:

  • rel=”sponsored”: the sponsored attribute marks up the link to tell google that the link on the website was created through some type of sponsorship, paid advertising or similar.
  • rel=”ugc”: the ugc (user-generated content) tag lets Google know that the content was contributed by someone outside of the website. This is often used to highlight content such as forum posts, blog comments or product reviews.

Internal link building is extremely important for SEO as it helps to pass link value throughout your website, while also helping Google understand the website structure and key pages on your website. Therefore, internal links are essential to boost the organic performance of your website, especially for larger websites.

Your internal links should be structured and mapped out before building your website. However, if your website is already live and showing in Googles SERPs, we recommend having a technical SEO audit completed on your website.

As part of your SEO audit with White Chalk Road, we will conduct a review of your internal and external links, creating a report and strategy to effectively link between pages on your website.
