Anyone read it? Thoughts? Anything to add for us newbie-not-so-newbie people.

Very good post there. I agree with most of it. And Jim is a damn good link builder.

Excellent. More incentive for me to read it all. Thanks John.

It's nice of him to share his knowledge like that.

Westergren is relentless!

If Jim Westergren has one weakness, it's his networking. Aaron Wall gets a ton of linkage because of his ability to network and maintain so many relationships. But Jim doesn't use networking to his full advantage.

Overall, a very solid link-building overview. Some good nuggets of info in there for advanced users, especially the section titled "Search the SERPS and make offers".

Excellent work from Mr Westergren. It has most of what I need to remember for link-building in one succinct article.

Thanks for the feedback!

Good point! I do have some networks, like 4 SEO sites driving traffic to each other and 5 sites about getting links driving traffic to the SEO sites and in the middle is my blog as a central place. But yes, it can and will be improved. It is a bit harder when you manage 2 languages, but ok, hehe.

Yes Aaron Wall is a very good example of this.

That's not the networking I was referring to. Basically, I mean networking as in being a social person and getting links from a large network of friends.

Ohh

Well, I am progressing on that as well with my swedish seo forum and my blog.

You John, are even a better example on this than Aaron, man!
