Build links with ThisIsByUs

** February 2009 Update: ThisIsByUs seems to have shutdown due to financial reasons **

For those of you who keep up to date with my link building cookbook series, you have read my post about Squidoo, the website that lets you write articles and allows for backlinks to your sites.

Today’s link building post is about a similar site, one where you can register and write about anything and earn a share of the advertising revenue. The advertising share is 50% to the writers, 10% to the commentators, and 5% for all the referrals. The remaining 35% goes to the site owner(s). The website I am talking about is called ThisIsBy.us

While I know some people do write and optimize posts or traffic and revenue, I only use the site for backlink purposes. Whatever you decide to do, I recommend you at least try the website.

For link building purposes, you can register, login, and write an article about whatever you want, and have it be however long you want. If you are really lazy, you can write a one sentence article with a link to your site.

To get the most out of your link building campaign with ThisIsBy.us, you should include a bit of content and some optimized titles and keywords.

You can see my example article about real estate investments, as well as my one on free online dating.

The sky is the limit on how many links you can build, so start slamming those keyboards and enjoy the long term search engine traffic that my tips bring you!

This is part 31 of my series called the link building cookbook that aims to be the ultimate untapped link building resource on the web.

    11. Hi! I checked the site and signed up. Then I made one post. So far, a lot of people can view, comment and rate on the post that I made. I plan to continue posting on the topic I chose if I see that it has a good result.

    Thank you for introducing the site. It was a big help.
