I decided to imagine I was linkbuilding for a technical but

[zihadhasan019]

Not-specifically-web-related company. I'm trying to get links from trusted authoritative domains so I start with big educational institutions. As some of you may know, I studied at the University of Cambridge (ending with a year at the Statslab). I don't want them getting link requests from all you lot, so I picked Oxford (**). I'm pretending my imaginary client works in some area of telecoms and has resources and technical papers on subjects like wimax and spectrum usage.


First up, wimax: linkfromdomain search at uk email address list Start with the linkfromdomain searchform=QBRE&filt=all&qs=n Pick out an interesting-looking resource Dive over to the labs tools to find ox.ac.uk links to this page: is a goldmine for linkbuilders. It's the Continuing Education section of the Oxford University site and seems to be very generous with linking out.





I might suggest that my client gives a talk or writes a resource for a CPD course. At the very least, it might be worth creating some content to target this kind of page. Tip: I find it best to look for links to pages that aren't homepages because it's typically easier to find where the link originates from. Bing doesn't have an effective link: operator meaning that we have to use Yahoo, Linkscape or similar.
