Back­links are an impor­tant asset to any online writer. They indi­cate to the search engines how your site exists in rela­tion to other sites. For instance if you run a cook­ing web­site and most of the pub­lic­ity you get from other web­sites is com­ing from ones that spe­cial­ize in cook­ies, cakes, and other sweet treats the search engines can tell your a baker, and the search terms that return your site as a top result will reflect that.

We encour­age you to set up a blog here at OnlineWriters.org to pro­mote your works on other sites, to help build your back­link pop­u­lar­ity and improve your organic list­ing posi­tions for the arti­cles you write. The secret will be to remain focused. If you write a lot about a par­tic­u­lar topic you should cre­ate a blog ded­i­cated to that topic and add a ref­er­ence to each of your works around the web on that topic. The bet­ter you main­tain the focus, the more effec­tive the strat­egy will become.

In the long run you’ll find your arti­cles become indexed more quickly once you link to them from our site. As an added bonus you as a writer are able to point to a sin­gle source to ref­er­ence all your works on a given topic.

Here’s a plan to put this tip into action today!

1.) Pick A Topic

2.) Reg­is­ter a blog for your topic (Topic.onlinewriter.org)

3.) Write a quick overview of your topic then list the resources you have cre­ated, link­ing to them from your new blog.
