What is White Hat Link Building?

To help you grow your online audience, white hat link building is a trusted method when it comes to search engine optimization. Search engines like Google have strict webmaster guidelines that lay out the rules of increasing traffic to your page. Compared to black hat methods, white hat tactics obey these rules and prevent your website from getting banned. 

Some common white hat strategies include creating high-quality content that’s relevant to readers, using relevant keywords, and optimizing your website for mobile use. Through these methods, you can help your website rank higher on search engine results pages and differentiate your brand from the competition. 

Why Should You Choose White Hat Tactics? 

Since using white hat methods may take some time to work, it may be tempting to rely on black hat or grey hat tactics that promise speedier but more temporary results. These include methods like keyword stuffing, using hidden links, or relying on content automation tools to write articles. 

Unfortunately, many of these tactics aren’t endorsed by search engines and may lead to you being blacklisted or penalized. Because of this, it’s worth putting the time and energy into optimizing your website in the right way. 

Examples of White Hat Link Building 

Using a variety of different white hat methods can pay off in the long run. For instance, using thematic link building to build relationships with other companies in your niche can increase the visibility of your website. Because it leads to more natural backlinks, it is unlikely that this method will raise any red flags. Other examples include:

  • Using internal links to steer readers towards more relevant information
  • Investing in high-quality guest posts to receive backlinks to your page
  • Encouraging social media views shares through other platforms 
  • Building online relationships through web forums, talks, and events 
  • Ensuring mobile optimization by minimizing loading speeds

Ultimately, building links in the correct manner can help you grow and maintain your online audience in a sustainable way. With some time and patience, you’ll soon see why white hat link building is the preferred SEO method for reputable businesses.
