Off Page Optimization
All activities which is done to make a web page popular including acquiring links from authority websites in your niche and promoting on social media, comes under Off page optimization. Off-page optimization activities are not visible on the webpage itself unlike On-Page optimization. Off page optimization helps to rank your website higher in the search engine and drive insane traffic to website.

Off-page optimization has the significant impact in search engine ranking. If you rank for a keyword at 2 or 3 page, it is not going to help to get any single sale. To get results, you need to reserve the first spot in major search engine including Google, Yahoo, and Bing. The more quality backlink your website has, the more you have chances to rank at no. 1. Here I outlined advanced off page SEO techniques. If you follow them, you will see the great improvement in organic search engine traffic and ranking.

Blog commenting is not about to get links on keywords; many newbies make this mistake. They try to get backlinks from anchor text using in comment body and using the keyword at the place of the name. The result is time wasting; nobody wants someone came and spammed his/her blog.
Most of all webmasters moderates comments and when they notice you are commenting to get only backlinks, they click on spam section and your comment is gone for forever in spam section and you become a spammer in particular webmaster opinion.
So avoid spammer identity and save your time to get good backlinks in your niche.

The most impressive thing in your blog is the words of selection and the font that you used.

Hi Jyothi
A grateful thank you for sharing such most informative things about seo off page techniques. Here i gained some more techniques from through this blog to my knowledge for SEO On Page and Off Page Techniques.
Thank you for your mentioning SEMrush, we are glad to bring the value for bloggers in India. You are rock, keep it up!
Hey Jyoti, it’s a great article about the applicable techniques. The way you can refine it further is by indicating which technique is better for which situation. Commenting works well but only when you are competing at the local level. At the national or global or ecommerce level, where the competitors are large sites, you cannot use it. Even article submission is not going to help. You will need to create more effective branding signals and that’s where blogger outreach and press engagement become necessary. Like this, there is a different solution going to be adopted for every different situation and that’s where I see a good scope of another great article for your future writing ambitions.
