The internet consists of backlinks.  Backlinks, like word of mouth, are what connect one page to another and search algorithms are built on a similar theory of “word of mouth”.  Where the more quality ‘referral’ links a webpage has from other pages on the net, the more credibility it has in being considered a highly relevant source of information for that given topic. At the core of Thinkbound’s SEO service, is the ongoing building and maintaining of diverse, high quality back links; widely considered the bread and butter of Search Engine rankings. Building links to websites come in various forms.  These include recommendations on social sites, posting on forums or contributing to high authority websites and webmaster blogs with guest blog posts. Powerful backlinks coupled with unique value adding content will accelerate rankings for high competition keywords. Thinkbound follows a tiered approach to link building utilizing a vast and  diverse generation of unique content such as writing and submitting guest posts to a diverse range of sites with differing domain authorities including niche relevant network of sites for most comment industry types.  Our backlinks come from sources that include guest blog posts, citations on local directories (both broad and highly relevant), social media posts, blog comments and forum contributions.
