You know those words, where there is a Silent letter, you know like Knife (or know).

Well how about phrases with silent words?  I’ll bet you never knew they existed did you?!

Here is a perfect example of a Phrase with a silent word in it…

Building Backlinks with Comments

Hold on, you may have missed it, did you see the Silent word in that phrase?  Let me show you again…

Building Backlinks with blog Comments.

Did you see it that time?

I’ll bet you never even thought about it before, but if you have a little think about it now, did it ever strike you that the only comments a large portion of the Backlink Building community ever talk about is “Blog Commenting”.   It’s almost as if it is a silent word that everyone assumes goes in front of the “Commenting”.

Today however, I would like to discuss Commenting that does not involve blogs.  There is such a thing out there and in fact, you could find a veritable Backlink Goldmine if you put your mind to it.

Here are some types of Comment Backlink you can get without having to post on a blog…

Picture Galleries - As mentioned in my Scrapebox Pro tips #1 aside from having blogs and forums, expressionengine sites have Galleries too.  You can usually leave a dofollow comment on one of these gallery photos aswell.  There are other types of Photo Gallery software out there too, some of which will also leave you a nice AutoApprove Dofollow Anchor Texted backlink in your comment.   One or 2 gallery platforms I use regularly arent heavily spammed yet,  so I’ll not get anymore specific than that.  I first found a couple of gallery links when doing some Backlink analysis on some Ezine articles that where ranking top.  Guy had spammed a few hundred gallery photos and nothing else so I figured hey, thats a cool trick!

Articles Comments -

A lot of article sites allow comments, so while you’re signed up to them you might aswell pop some comments in.  Nowadays, there are a lot of Hybrid WordPress-Article sites around.  Often, if you have registered at these sites you can pop a comment on someones article and it will be autoapprove.  A lot of them are still no-follow but there are other article platforms out there that allow links and are dofollow Although admittedly sometimes you wont get anchored links in the comments just raw URL links (which have their value)

Wikis -

Several free hosted wiki platforms allow comments on wiki pages.  A lot of them require you to be a member before posting a comment, but this should be no problem, register an account and use scrapebox to find as many pages of a particular platform as you can and then sort by PR.  Pick the high pr comments and use them to boost your pages PR.  If you hit one platform all on one IP you wont get a great serp boost but you can boost your PR juice this way.
