Optimize Your Blog For Search Engine With Dofollow Social Media

by TheWeblogZone on July 31, 2008

Building backlinks to your blog is one of the most powerful search engine optimization techniques but it only works when the links are DOFOLLOW. This means that the links pointing to your blog should not have the “nofollow” attribute otherwise, the links are useless.

In my previous post, I compiled a list of Dofollow Blogs where you can leave your comments and earn yourself a link love. The other technique I shared is to edit PLR articles and submit them to article directories. Also, you can submit your posts to Dofollow Social Bookmarking Sites to build more backlinks to your blog.

Today, I compiled a list of Dofollow Social Media Sites that is guaranteed to increase backlinks to your blog and spare you enormous time googling. These Social Media Sites let you create an account and from there, link to your blog. The links to your blog from these public accounts are dofollow. Moreover, these dofollow social media sites are frequently crawled by search engines so your blog will be crawled more often as the search engines follow your link from these dofollow social media sites.

Dofollow Social Media Sites

If you know of a dofollow social media site that is not included in the list, do share them through the comment and I will be glad to include them in the list when I have this post updated.

As always, your comments and suggestions are most welcome. Thank you for your time. :)
