What’s the difference between local link building and link building?

Link building is the process of getting contextually relevant websites to link to a page on your website. And local link building is the same thing, but getting links from pages that are both contextually and locally relevant to your website.

While the difference doesn’t sound that big, your approach to finding, qualifying and pitching link prospects will be different from most link building tactics that are usually talked about in a global context.

But the good thing about local SEO is that there won’t be as much competition as you’re competing with local players. The downside, though, is that you may need to get more creative in finding link prospects because there will likely be fewer targets compared to a site doing global SEO.

So, here are some easy local link building tactics.

► Join your local chamber of commerce
► Join niche relevant business associations
► Local resource page link building
► Guest post on local websites
► Get featured on local list posts
► Analyze your competitors’ backlinks

And you’ll learn how to find opportunities and execute these tactics in the video.
