There are many ways to build links on the Internet, and the majority of them are free. Some methods take a little more effort than others, but the harder a link is to get, the more valuable it is (generally).
Keep in mind that if the content on your site is very appealing and interesting, people will naturally link to it. In fact, the technique of eliciting links based on high quality content is known as link baiting, which is an additional link building method. To get the most links, have good content and refined, personal link building skills.
Once you have content and links to your Hub, you need some means of making money from it. Many people use AdSense, which is Google's Pay-Per-Click program. There are several other PPC firms out there, but for the majority of marketers, AdSense works the best. Just a little bit of traffic guarantees that you will make something from AdSense, but unless you get a lot of traffic, you will never get anything too significant.
To reach your full potential, the best route is to use an affiliate product. Using the resources of an affiliate program, you can sell a quality service and take a commission on each sale. Depending on the specific program, you can make twenty to sixty dollars per sale! However, you still need a lot of traffic to do well with this strategy, because the conversion will not be very high with an expensive product. That is why content and link building is so important.
Even though you will not be actively promoting an affiliate product until you have more traffic, you still need to plan for it from the get go. That means writing support articles, targeting keyphrases related to the affiliate program, and doing Hub promotion. If you stick with it, you will be successful!
As stated above, using an affiliate program is one of the most lucrative methods of monetization. If you want to build a hub around an affiliate program, you need to do two types of research. The first is keyword research. This is a topic all in itself, but it involves finding the right keyphrases to target for search engines. If you find a good keyphrase and rank for it, then you will get a lot of traffic that wants to buy your affiliate product. For this reason, keyword research is extremely important, yet it is the most skipped step in search engine optimization.
The ideal keyphrase should relate to your affiliate program, have little competition, and have a relatively high search volume. It can take a long time to find a keyphrase that matches this criteria, but they are out there, and there are tools that can help you, such as the Google AdWords Keyword Tool.
Next, you need to research what affiliate program you should use. There are many independent programs, as well as those that are part of a network like Clickbank. Your affiliate program should be reasonably priced, have a high commission, be of interest to visitors, and have high reliability. You can determine some of these things by reading reviews of affiliate programs online, and Clickbank shows many statistics which help marketers determine the viability of different programs.
eBay is another popular affiliate program, and if you run your own eBay business, you can make other sites that are built around selling your own products.
Many of us on HubPages also own one or multiple personal websites with their own domains. If you are on this page, then the odds are that you would like to use your own sites to make money as well as on HubPages. By adding the power of your HubPages to your websites, you can greatly strengthen them and make more.
The primary way you strengthen a website is through building links to it. Therefore, all you need to do on your HubPage is link to your site, with beneficial anchor text, of course. Linking to your site does not devalue your HubPage in any way, so what do you have to lose?
Since each Hub only has a little bit of power, if you want to really make an impact, you would need to make multiple support websites around one website. That does not mean you should neglect each individual Hub, as by strengthening the individuals, you improve the collective.
On the other hand, maybe you are finished with your main sites and want to concentrate only on HubPages. In this case, you can do the reverse and link your main sites to your HubPages. That will bring more traffic and better rankings to your Hubs, so if your goal is to make money online only with HubPages, this is the correct route to take.

Beginner's Link Building Guide
To get the most out of link building, you need to follow some rules. Blindly pointing links to your website will get you nowhere if you do not do it right. That is why you should adhere to the following rules when building links. However, before going in to the rules, you need to understand the components of a link. A link is any HTML function that leads from one website to another. Most people recognize them as the blue, underlined texts (although images and other colors can be links too). A link is formed through HTML code, and follows the format of: <a href="http://www.domain.com">Site Title</a>. The Site Title portion is also known as anchor text, and the latter term is the one used most often in the Internet Marketing industry. When you are building links to your site, it will probably be in HTML format.
Now that you understand what a link is and the components of it, here are the long-awaited rules:
- Build links around one primary keyphrase. For example, if you have a hub about gardening, then you will want to build links that have anchor texts all related to gardening, such as "Gardening Tips", "Gardening Advice", "How to Garden", etc. Ideally, you should have a very specific keyphrase that not a lot of other people are fighting for.
- Vary your anchor texts. Just because you know what keyphrase you want to rank for does not mean all your anchor texts should be that. When building links, 90% of the time you have control over what your anchor text is, and you want to take advantage of that. Make some of your links your target, some the title of your site, and some supporting keywords, and you'll be good.
- Do link exchanges. People seem to ignore them nowadays, but they are actually very beneficial to all parties involved. The most efficient type of exchange is a three-way link exchange, also known as a non-reciprocal exchange, since no two sites in the setup are pointing to each other. This makes it so both parties get a one-way link, which looks better to search engines than a reciprocal link.
- Keep building links. Eventually, you will get to the top for what you are targeting, as long as it is not ridiculously hard. And if you do get to the top, you need more links to stay there. However, once you are successful, you do not need as many new links to maintain your position.

Methods of Link Building
There are many ways to build links on the Internet, and the majority of them are free. Some methods take a little more effort than others, but the harder a link is to get, the more valuable it is (generally).
- Article Submissions - You can write articles for sites like EzineArticles or GoArticles, and for each article you write, you get a link. Since these sites have high PageRanks, the links from them are especially valuable.
- Blog Commenting - Many blogs have commenting systems that enable you to get a link for each comment you post. Your comments should be valuable and contribute to the conversation, not just means for a link.
- Link Exchanges - Find similar websites or Hubs, and exchange links with them. If possible, arrange a three-way link exchange to avoid the devaluation of a reciprocal link.
- Other Sites You Own - If you own other similar websites or Hubs, you can point links from them to your other sites. The value is the same as if it were a different person, so why not?
- Directory Submissions - There are thousands of free directories that you can submit your websites to, and for each one that accepts you, you get a link. However, directory links are not very valuable compared to other links.
- Contests - Arrange a contest where people can enter by giving a link to you from their site. This is a great way to get a lot of links quickly!
Keep in mind that if the content on your site is very appealing and interesting, people will naturally link to it. In fact, the technique of eliciting links based on high quality content is known as link baiting, which is an additional link building method.
