3 SIMPLE WAYS TO BUILD LINKS WITH IMAGES

<p>#Links #Infographics #<a href="https://ahrefs.com/blog/build-links-with-images/#graphs">Graphs</a></p> <p>THEY SAY A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO LINK BUILDING, A PICTURE CAN QUITE LITERALLY BE WORTH A THOUSAND #LINKS.</p> <p>HI, I’M CALLY, FROM THE INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF DIGITAL MARKETING. HERE IS A BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO LINK BUILDING WITH IMAGES</p> <h3><strong>1. CLAIM #LINKS FROM IMPROPER ATTRIBUTIONS</strong></h3> <p>IF YOU’VE ALREADY CREATED SOME IMAGE TYPES, THEN PEOPLE MIGHT HAVE ALREADY EMBEDDED THEM.</p> <p>THESE #LINKS MOST LIKELY POINT TO THE ACTUAL IMAGE FILE ITSELF, NOT THE POST WHERE IT COMES FROM. THIS ISN’T IDEAL BECAUSE IMAGE #LINKS ARE A DEAD-END FOR PAGERANK AND PROBABLY AREN’T HELPING OUR PAGERANK IN GOOGLE.</p> <p>HERE’S HOW TO FIND AND CLAIM PROPER ATTRIBUTION FOR THESE TYPES OF IMAGE #LINKS:</p> <p>● PASTE YOUR WEBSITE INTO A TOOL LIKE AHREFS’ SITE EXPLORER, GO TO THE <strong>BACK#LINKS</strong> REPORT, THEN SEARCH FOR .PNG OR .JPG IN THE URLS OF BACK#LINKS:</p> <p>● NEXT, FILTER THE REPORT TO SHOW ONLY “DOFOLLOW” #LINKS FROM UNIQUE DOMAINS.</p> <p>● NOW IT’S JUST A CASE OF SIFTING THROUGH THE REPORT AND NOTING ANY #LINKS THAT WE WANT TO CLAIM IN A SPREADSHEET.</p> <h3>2. CLAIM #LINKS FROM UNAUTHORIZED USE</h3> <p>MOST PEOPLE WHO USE YOUR IMAGES WILL CREDIT YOU WITH A LINK, BUT NOT EVERYONE.</p> <p>SO YOU’LL WANT TO FIND AND CLAIM #LINKSFROM UNAUTHORIZED USE.</p> <p>THE SIMPLEST WAY TO DO THIS IS WITH A GOOGLE REVERSE IMAGE SEARCH. JUST UPLOAD YOUR IMAGE OR PASTE IN THE URL, AND GOOGLE WILL KICK BACK PAGES WHERE IT THINKS THE IMAGE IS BEING USED.</p> <p>YOU THEN JUST NEED TO SIFT THROUGH THE RESULTS TO MAKE SURE:</p> <p>YOUR IMAGE IS ACTUALLY ON THE PAGE</p> <p>THEY’RE NOT CREDITING YOU WITH A LINK</p> <p>YOU WANT A LINK FROM THIS WEBSITE</p> <p>IF ALL OF THE ABOVE IS TRUE, MAKE A NOTE OF THE PAGE IN A SPREADSHEET.</p> <h3>3. USE THE TRUST FORMULA</h3> <p>YOU CAN ONLY CLAIM SO MANY BACK#LINKS FROM EXISTING IMAGES. AFTER THAT, YOU’LL NEED TO CREATE MORE IMAGE
