Today I am going to share some websites that you can get backlinks from, and I hope that you do the same ...

Here are some websites to get a good backlink profile when you first start your SEO campaign:

  1. Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/
  2. Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/home
  3. Metacafe:
  4. Slideshare: http://www.slideshare.net/
  5. Hubpages: http://hubpages.com/
  6. Diply: http://diply.com/
  7. Buzzfeed: https://www.buzzfeed.com/
  8. Quora: https://www.quora.com/
  9. Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/

Try to post useful content on these websites, not just content for a link. If you build great content people will start to click on the links thus, traffic.

And here is my strategy to find link oppurtunities:
Go to Alexa or any backlink service and check the backlinks of your competition and try to build links from the same websites.

What is your strategy for link building? Do you have any other websites that you like to get backlinks from?

Please share. Thanks,
Farris

Nice starter list, — and the reminder to post genuinely useful content is the right foundation. Rather than chasing platform count, focus on creating “linkable assets” that earn editorial links: original research or surveys, evergreen how‑to guides, useful templates/tools, and unique data visualizations. Those attract natural links and referral traffic that stick.

Three dependable tactics that scale: digital PR (journalist queries / HARO), broken‑link and resource‑page outreach, and selective guest contributions on niche trade publications (as suggested) — but only when the placement has real editorial control. Vet targets quickly with this checklist:

  • Relevance: does the audience match your content?
  • Evidence of traffic/engagement: visible readers or social shares.
  • Editorial quality: named authors, curated content, and no spammy sections.
  • Link placement: in‑content links are preferable to footers.
  • Clean history: no obvious link‑spam or penalties.

Keep outreach short and human, offer a content excerpt or exclusive data, and measure wins by referral traffic and ranking improvements (use Google Search Console / analytics), not just raw domain metrics. ’s caution about social profiles is fair — treat many social platforms as visibility/referral channels rather than primary SEO link sources. And as and imply, community and QA sites help when answers genuinely solve reader problems. Avoid buying links, mass exchanges, and over‑optimized anchor text.

Example outreach:

Subject: Quick resource suggestion for [page]

Hi [Name],

I enjoyed your piece on [topic]. I created a short resource that complements it: [one-line description]. If helpful, I can send a short excerpt you can use or link to.

Thanks,
[Your Name]
