How Infographics Can Help You Generate Backlinks
Backlinks help your website rank well on search engines; however, it is one aspect of blogging that many webmasters find difficult to achieve. It is also a very important factor that can increase the Domain Authority of your site.
Infographics are one creative way of generating backlinks for your site. You can prepare infographic submissions, guestographics, and guest-post infographics.
Preparing Your Guestographics
Keyword targeting is one important way of preparing your guestographics. Research to find keywords that will help you improve your ranking on SERP and also earn you referral traffic.
After searching for your targeted keywords, you need to check for other sites that rank high on them. Seek out blogs that have a high domain authority and less spam. Then you look at ways you can create better content than what is on such blogs. Make sure your content stands out and will be appreciated by your audience.
Once you’re done preparing your infographics, you should publish it on your blog, and then inform the owner of the targeted blog about what you have done and invite him to take a look at it.
If your infographic is really engaging and will help boost what is on theirs, you may be favored to get a backlink to it. You can also allow your audience to share it on social media by adding a link to your website.
Apart from adding a social media link, you can also add an embeddable code of infographics. This will make it easier to add infographics to your blog and also help you get extra backlinks.
Posting Guest Infographics
You can get more engagements when you post infographics as a guest on other blogs. To do this, you need to find blogging websites that allow for guest blogging. You can Google your niche plus “write for us”, or your niche plus “become a contributor” and you will find many niches where you can write a guest post but always be careful to go for those with high Domain Authority.
Research and find relevant topics in their niche which they are yet to publish content on. You can do this by looking through all their blog posts. You can also pick on an already-written post and add infographics to make it more engaging.
Select a topic for your guest post and get targeted keywords for the infographics. Plan your targeted keywords appropriately and give it a befitting title. Then you choose the right designs that will get the attention of your audience.
Create an interesting infographic post and reach out to offer your infographic guest post. Convince them that the infographics will help improve their SEO.
