Link building is a tedious, time consuming task that can yield great results in some cases. How and what type of links you want to build is determined by your websites content and your marketing goals. There are 3 types of link building acquisitions that you can pursue.

1. Natural Links - links from other websites and pages that come to link to year that are of value.
2. Finger Links (what I like to call them)- those links you pursue by sending a request to the website authors
3. Self Created Link- a creating links by visiting a webpage. The web author allows you to get links through guest post, forum signatures, blog commentaries.
