If you have a website or blog, then all you have to do is optimize them which you want your site to increase on the top rankings of Google, Yahoo, Bing or any search engine that inspires you. It may also help you monetize your own website or blog, only if you have third party ads like Google Adsense, Clickbank, Amazon, PepperJam or CommissionJunction. There are many ways to optimize them, but I recommend these 10 tips that I have found which may work for your website or blog.

1. Submitting your site to web directories. They're one of the best strategies to ever built for your website or blog.

2. Article writing and submission to article directories. In this way, you will increase backlinks through catching the reader's attention on your article with the supporting links.

3. Forum participation with signatures. If you put a signature on your user control panel, it will appear every time you post, and people may click and view your site.

4. Blog posting with other's blogs. When you're posting a blog into someone's blog with huge traffic, you can leave a backlink there within your post through keywords or keyphrases.

5. Link exchanging with other bloggers and webmasters.

6. Review other's websites which may possibly give you a backlink in return from a reviewer.

7. Contribute or share something to any people in forums, social networks, etc., with your backlink on it so that they can check out your website.

8. Create a list like "Top 10", which is one of the great piece of linkbait. It will draw links from other sites so that people may click on it.

9. Creating a contest on any forum, blog, or website which will attract more plenty of backlinks.

10. Try to host a collection of free tools, and share them to everyone who's connected with you on either e-mails, social networks, etc.

I know there are still lot more there, and it will help you to improve your website or blog.

If you are given an opportunity to work for a client or firm about a huge link building project, will you accept? Well most of the service providers are accepting the huge job because of money. The purpose why the clients want to hire service providers for a huge link building projects is to gain more backlinks.

Link building companies do not have to guarantee results like SEO companies do. But the SEO companies still need to decide whether or not to take on new SEO clients? This is why link building is such a booming industry.

Backlinks are the source of traffic, page ranks and a possibility of increasing your site in the top search results in Google, Yahoo or Bing. Huge link building projects are a great help for both clients and service providers.

Clients earn huge traffic, backlinks and popularity to their site while service providers earn huge money from them. Of course, clients make sure that the service provider is trusted. We can determine that by requesting them to see samples in their previous works.

If they can't show anything, you must let them work first before you pay. But if they have samples that satisfy you, you can make an advanced payment to their package or a 50% upfront payment. In that way, you may see how your service provider is trustworthy. Huge link building projects can be expected long term results.

It can be within one month or two months, depending on how many backlinks does the client wants you to generate. If they can say 1,000 backlinks or more, it can be expected more than one month, but if we can say less than 1,000 backlinks to be generated, it could be much faster results.

Huge link building projects are one of the greatest projects in the internet you will ever generate as a service provider. You make huge money which they pay you for your services, while the clients will gain popularity, backlinks and huge amount of traffic from unique visitors.

Maintaining your website's traffic and backlinks are one of the most difficult and challenging to make. It is not easy because there are lots of things you need to take care of every month which includes:

* Monthly pay to your web hosting (e.g., GoDaddy, Hostgator, BlueHost, etc.)

* Forum posting with signatures

* Manual web directory submissions

* Article/blog/press release directory submissions

* Article writing (with keyword/keyphrases), Blog posting and Press Release writing

* Linkwheel

* E-mail blasts and list building

* Promoting to classified ads and social media/networks

* And so much more!

These are the things we need to maintain monthly for one site only, just to keep things going for building backlinks and traffic. It's really simple you know, but it's pretty exhausting. Webmasters spent most of their time performing SEO tactics whether it's blackhat or whitehat mode. Imagine you are just maintaining it and no more time for relaxing and hang out with your family and friends, but in return your site will become popular in the SERPS (Search Engine Ranking Pages). Unless if you're hiring a virtual assistant which could be found in webmaster forums like Digitalpoint, Sitepoint, GetAFreelancer, LimeExchange, ODesk, WickedFire, Craigslist and other databases which can take your place, it's great but you need to pay for him every month at least $75 or more monthly.

Virtual assistants can maintain your site every month, as they take over your place. It could be single or a team, but I think a tea of virtual assistants could work out best for you so that they can save time for some extra time for leisure, rather than hiring only one virtual assistant who can work more than 10 hours daily. This is where you and virtual assistants are challenged to maintain the site's traffic, backlinks and popularity. It's really worth for both you and them because you gain backlinks, they earn money from you for paying them for maintenance of your website.
