Everybody yelling "Back links are back bone for any website" but how come... and what's all this game is all about....What is it's significance? What role does they play to upbring a website?

If you've read anything about or studied Search Engine Optimization, you've come across the term "backlink" at least once. Understanding importance of backlinks and its application can make or mark your efforts to drive traffic to your website.

People are looking for backlinks, and don't know what are those and how we can gain them:

I have tried to explain a bit that so that you may be clear with this.....

Optimization: A set of techniques to improve a Web site’s presentation to visitors and its stature in a search engine’s index. As a specific field, search engine optimization has suffered in reputation due to unscrupulous individuals and companies using tactics that degrade the integrity of search results and violate guidelines set by those engines. Generally, any optimization scheme that tricks a search engine also tricks visitors to that site, making online life worse for everyone involved. Pure optimization, though, helps everyone: the Webmaster, the search engine, and the visitor. The true values of optimization are clear content, coherent navigation, wide reputation for quality, and high visibility in search engines.

Backlink: A link at another site, leading to your site. Also called an incoming link. The number and quality of backlinks represent the most important factor in determining a site’s PageRank. The value of any backlink is determined partly by the PageRank of the linking site, which is determined partly by the quality of its backlinks, and so on.

Outgoing link: A link from your page to another page. Outgoing links don’t build PageRank by volume, as incoming links (backlinks) do. However, Google pays attention to the text elements of outgoing links, and a page’s optimization can be strengthened by consistent placement of key concepts in that text.

You can get back links by:

Article Submission: Every good webmaster knows the power of original, unique content. Getting your unique content distributed online so that your website and links can be seen by a greater audience is vital. The Marketing Gurus call this “Viral Marketing”. You submit your unique article to an online directory of articles that is relevant to your particular website niche. Then this article gets read and picked up by many other webmasters and sometimes even offline publications.

Social Bookmarking: What is social bookmarking? It is tagging a website and saving it for later. Instead of saving them to your web browser, you are saving them to the web. And, because your bookmarks are online, you can easily share them with friends. In social bookmarking, thousands of people keep their bookmark collections on a website instead of on just one computer. Doing so brings several big advantages.As per the SEO you are getting back links, and a good traffic source.

Directory submission: An online directory definition is; A website submission service where your website is added to the proper category in a searchable online directory which enhances your site’s visibility and creates relevant inbound links to your website. Directory submission is a very cost-effective way to get links and helps to establish a foundation for Internet marketing. Especially beneficial in helping new websites get noticed, it helps your site build traction in an increasingly crowded and competitive marketplace. Directory submission creates relevant inbound links. When a site is listed in an online directory, it creates quality inbound links to your site and that also enhances your site’s visibility and ranking.
