Link Building for Bing Rankings: Dos and Don'ts | WebProNews

Like Google, Bing places great emphasis on quality links to determine its rankings. "Just don't make the mistake of believing it will result in instant gratification. Successful link building efforts require a long-term commitment, not an overnight or turnkey solution," says DeJarnette. "You need to continually invest in link building efforts with creativity and time."

What Not To Do

DeJarnette shared a list of things that you should avoid in your link building efforts, if it is a good Bing ranking that you are after. Here is what Bing says will get your site reviewed more closely by staff:

1. The number of inbound links suddenly increases by orders of magnitude in a short period of time

2. Many inbound links coming from irrelevant blog comments and/or from unrelated sites

3. Using hidden links in your pages

4. Receiving inbound links from paid link farms, link exchanges, or known "bad neighborhoods" on the Web

5. Linking out to known web spam sites

Recently I received this question from an interested newcomer:

That is perfectly fine–obviously it is possible to do article marketing without understanding all the technical information behind it, but when you start to feel comfortable with the basics, you’ll be ready to dig a little deeper into the technical side.

I’ll try to explain this as simply as possible using non-technical language. Here goes:
