SEO Tip #6 - Using HubPages to Build Backlinks

I have always been a big fan of using Squidoo.com to build topical pages and use them to link back to my money pages. The great thing is you can create a page with high page rank directly linking back to your site within a matter of weeks.

Hubpages.com is really just like Squidoo with a few slight differences. One thing that I love about Hub Pages is you can link your Google Adsense account with your hubs and get some additional revenue from your pages. So not only are you building quality back links to your site but if they happen to get some traffic, your Adsense account will be getting a bump at the same time.

The main reason people like to use HubPages is the pages get some favoritism from Google. When a site gets an authority reputation like Hubpages your sites can easily benefit from the resulting links.

How do you find ideas for your Hub Pages?

So obviously the subject has to be relevant to your site and that is the first step to building your hub. Lets say for example I am trying to build the ranking of my SEO Powersuite blog. An easy hub that I could start would be a hub all about SEO techniques and throw in some info on SEO Powersuite in the form of a few anchor links with my desired keywords.

The great thing is you can throw together a hub in about an hour and the ranking boost is quite substantial. In about the same time it would take me to write an Ezine article, I could put together a hub and get a little more bang for my buck. Don't get me wrong there is quite a bit value in writing Ezine articles but you have to put your eggs in more than one basket.

Using Hubpages Concluded...

A big part of link building is about having diverse links to your site instead of a bunch of links from the same domain. So if you haven't hit up Hubpages yet than take a second to get acquainted with the site and maybe put together a page, you will be pleasantly surprised with the results.
