Commit to one link a day but don�t waste too much time.
Link building is one of the most time-consuming processes when it comes to SEO, especially if you�ve been at it for a year or two and the link building opportunities aren�t quite as forthcoming as they used to be. It�s so easy to get lost in the hundreds of competitors links you�ve downloaded, looking for that diamond-in-the rough opportunity, that you could spend all day link building and only come up with a handful of quality links. Unless you�ve got the in-house talent where you can assign one person to do nothing but link building all day, chances are you can�t devote 8 hours a day to finding one link. My advice to site owners that get overwhelmed by their link building strategy is to aim for at least one link a day (that way it doesn�t get pushed to the back burner), but set a time limit. Give yourself an hour or two first thing in the morning to hunt for links. If you find one (or five) that�s great and go for it! But if you don�t find anything worthwhile once your time is up then move onto to something else.
