A link roundup is just what it sounds like; someone has put together a list of links they recommend that you visit. Why would someone create a link roundup? There are reasons why some people do this, but primarily because they are trying to build content, traffic, and relationships for their site by providing something helpful &#8211; the curated list of links. Who are these roundup curators? Anyone can create roundups, but two types of people typically do this: bloggers and web admins.

One great way to connect with these people is by using the #linkbuilding hashtag, often used when people share link-building tips and information.<\/li>\n<li>Link Building Forums &#8211; There are many forums out there dedicated to the subject of link building, and these can be great places for finding opportunities. Some platforms even have threads devoted to &#8220;link roundups&#8221; where members will post their favorite links each week!<\/li>\n<li>Link Roundups on Other Sites &#8211; This is one of the best strategies. A great way to find link-building opportunities is to find sites that already <em>create link roundups<\/em> (and also use Google Alerts) and then contact them, asking if you can contribute your list of links!<\/li>\n<li>Google Webmaster Tools &#8211; This is not a great way to find opportunities, but it can help you once you find them! If someone has linked to your site without your knowledge, you can use the &#8220;Links to Your Site&#8221; report in Google Webmaster Tools to find out where they are. Once you do that, you may be able to get in touch with them and ask if you can provide a link on their page.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>In Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Link roundups can be an excellent source of link-building opportunities for any link builder.
