I guess, only few know to get Links, the rest is struggling in this field. I have seen many bloggers asking for link building strategies to pro's. All those bloggers will get quite similar answers like, Blog commenting, Guest Posting, etc..

But I am not a big fan of these methods, because the benefits Natural or Organic Backlinks can give to your blog, is not be possible with the Unnatural Link building and the methods Like Blog commenting, Directory Submission, Guest posting are unnatural ways to get links.

Now, the question is which methods you can use to Get Organic or Natural Backlinks?

I will explain with an example. Suppose you are reading my article and after reading, you thought, you should write something related on your own blog, and for more explanation you can provide a link to my article, that Link will be an organic (Natural) Backlink.

In simple words, the Links your blog will get the natural way are organic backlinks. SO, this makes everything clear to you. Now, I move on to the main section of this post.

Top 7 ways to Get Organic (Natural) Backlinks:-

#1 Infographics

The majority people know about Infographics and what it can do, but only few of them really implement this natural link building and traffic generating technique. The main reason behind this I, they think it is very difficult to build infographics and it may be costly also. But in reality it is not, especially when we consider its benefits.

You should be selecting new topic, a topic having very less or no posts on the internet and you should be covering each aspect of that topic in your article.

So, your work should be to find out the sites that are offline now and then, find their incoming links using Ahref or OpenSiteExplorer and then, create a short list.

Once the list is prepared, filter your niche links and then, start mailing them, suggesting "Your site has link to an offline site or has a broken link. I will suggest you to change that broken with a similar guide "URL" which will help your readers learn more about that topic".

You can also do the same thing, by creating free tools or plugins which can help webmasters in an effective way.
