OFF-PAGE SEO: Document Sharing
Finding a new and effective method for gaining links are always preferred when doing SEO. Always keep on mind that link diversity is important if you do not want your site to be on search engine’s watch list.
There are a lot of methods of building backlinks available on a seo specialist’s arsenal. Methods such as article submission, bookmarking, guest blogging, blog commenting, forum posting/commenting and directory submissions are the most commonly used. A link builder must always find some fresh and effective ways to build links, that way it would ensure the authority of the website and its visibility on search engine results.
Among those effective methods of creating backlinks, is document sharing. Document sharing is the process of converting any articles into PDF format or PPT (power point) and submitting it to various sites that accepts documents such as PPT and PDF.
In doing this kind of method, one must prepare a unique article and find some good tool that would convert that article into PDF or PPT format. Some free tools you can use for this are; Microsoft Word for PDF conversion and Microsoft Powerpoint to make those presentations.
Prior to converting, you must check first the articles for some grammar and spelling errors. Though document sharing sites are not that strict when it comes to publishing, you don’t want the readers to go on your document and understand nothing right?! So, it is an important factor that you would do some proofreading first before converting any articles.
After you have proofread the article, don’t forget to insert a link back to your website 1-2 links are the normal number of links on a single or two pages article. After doing this, research some high authority document sharing sites you would submit to. Below are some of my compilations of the document sharing sites that i submit to.
- Scribd
- Slideshare
- Issuu
- Doctstoc
- Calameo
- Pdfcast
- Myplick
- Skydrive
- E-snips
- Box

I do hope that the above listed sites would help you in doing this kind of method. As you become familiar with this kind of strategy you can eventually scale it up and add more document sharing sites.
