What is link building?
Link building is one of how your website or blog can be made available to the general public.
In practical terms, a link-building success is recorded when I get a sale from the advert of a building company I put up in 2013.
When you write engaging content that adds value and is evergreen, a client can see what was posted in January 2013, and you get a sale from it in May 2019.
This is a successful strategy using the art of link building.
An example of successful link building is guest posting or placing sponsored posts on websites.
It makes sense when the websites are not constantly changing their URLs. Digital footprints should be able to be found at any time and are mostly found even years after you posted them.

When posting helpful information, the above truthful statement works for you. When you post 'fake news,' it could be your enemy, so be careful what you post.
Link building can open your business website or blog to new markets.
One of the tools by which you can spread your link is via social media platforms.
The popular ones are Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Instagram.
You can spread your links far and wide by using networking or social bookmarking sites like StumbleUpon, Digg, and Diigo.
