Publish informative and valuable content regularly. Do some keyword research to find relevant, high-traffic keywords. Try to collaborate with high-quality guest posts that are relevant to your niche. Share your article across social media. Optimize your on-page. Use long-tail keywords for diversity.

You can start creating backlinks easy, first you have to write and title and description for your service and start creating social bookmarking backlinks. After try to give answer in quora, write articles in your niche.

never heard of them, sorry!
well, in that case there's nothing cheaper than free, and you can get free links everywhere
...On a serious note, though... if you want cheap links probably that sites like Fiverr and SeoClerks are the places to visit, but you'll most likely end up buying garbage links as quality is never cheap. Keep this in mind!
And I'm sure you can find cheap links in the forum, too. I've actually purchased a package of 100 manual blog comments about 3 years ago and it was like $15 if memory serves me well. Oh, and I've also purchased 50 web 2.0s (albeit basic package, not a lot of bells and whistles just unique image + unique article + backlinks) for $20 or $25, don't remember the exact price but it was still cheap (even for my standards
)So yeah, you can get cheap links in lots of places, but those will almost never help you rank (blame google for that, as they always devalue things that are free and easy to get to keep the cash within the hands of the rich all the time)...

Did you saw success with those cheap backlinks?And I'm sure you can find cheap links in the forum, too.

with the blog comments no, but I wasn't expecting anyway as blog comments have not been having ranking power for a decade or more. I only got them to diversify the backlinks and to get more generic anchors because I was having too many exact / partial match anchors and this didn't look good.
The web 2.0s, however, did boost the rankings a little bit (I think position 16 to 13 or something like that) for a long tail keywords but this was initially (after 1 month). Down the road (5-6 months later) the rankings dropped because the web 2.0s got either deleted, shadowbanned, noindexed or whatever. I remember that I've lost something like 39 web 2.0 links out of the 50 that I got due to various reasons (account removal due to inactivity, content being shadowbanned and not showing up on its URL anymore, or the links got noindexed by the web 2.0 site, etc)....
I kind of knew that web 2.0s (at least the non-nurtured ones) are not valuable anymore, but I had hoped I'd be wrong so I impulse-bought them

To build backlinks in a White Hat SEO style without risking penalties from Google, focus on acquiring links organically through high-quality, niche-relevant content and relationships, use a mix of ******** and nofollow links, diversify your anchor text, and prioritize reputable, high Domain Authority sites while avoiding the purchase of cheap backlinks.

none of them have ranking power, but both of them are valuable for exactly what I said: diluting the anchor texts and diversifying the backlink profile. Sites that have only 1 type of backlinks (especially when it's the best type of them, like PBNs or guest posts) look suspicious and they're prone to getting penalized, that's why you want to have many types of links in your profile, which is what both blog comments (manual and quality ones, though) and web 2.0s are for....
I've heard some folks (who are heavy into web 2.0s) say that web2.0s can still rank you for decent keywords, but when I asked for details they've said that the trick is to nurture the web 2.0s and treat them as your own site (publish content regularly, build links to it, etc).
While I'm not dismissing this as being false, if I have to do this for even just 10-15 web 2.0s I might as well focus this time and resources on my own site since - with my own site - at least I have the certainty that I won't lose it. With web 2.0s you never know when they run out of business or when they decide they don't want you anymore and delete your account. Risky stuff... probably doesn't happen a lot, but I've never liked depending on 3rd parties for my main business, which is why I'm not into this nurturing of web 2.0s thing...
Now, if you're into parasite SEO... well, that's a different story because web 2.0s (the good ones anyway) have a lot of authority usually and they rank like crazy. So, if you're into parasites you definitely want to do web 2.0s (more for traffic and rankings than for backlinks, though), but I think everyone who does parasite SEO knows that the parasites are usually short-lived, so you gotta keep that in mind

Can you make it simpler? So web 2.0 are contextual backlinks like that are inserted into an article and these backlinks are very good if they come from good website?none of them have ranking power, but both of them are valuable for exactly what I said: diluting the anchor texts and diversifying the backlink profile. Sites that have only 1 type of backlinks (especially when it's the best type of them, like PBNs or guest posts) look suspicious and they're prone to getting penalized, that's why you want to have many types of links in your profile, which is what both blog comments (manual and quality ones, though) and web 2.0s are for....

And who i have to nurture like my site? The one that i own and getting backlinks for?
What are parasites?

they're contextual, yes. But they're not very good, which is exactly what I said earlier. And they're not very good because they have no ranking power, they are used mostly to diversify your backlink profile and to dilute your anchor texts.
What I should have probably mentioned is that I'm talking about normal web 2.0s here, the ones that you don't see ranking a lot / at all. The web2.0s that you do see ranking are used as parasites because they have authority and trust with google, so people leverage these 2 perks in order to rank high and divert the traffic these parasites get to their landing pages / offers / sites.
Medium.com is a parasite that used to be great in the past, which ranked fast and well, so people abused their ranking power to get traffic to their sites. And like Medium there are other good parasites, but each one is unique in its own way (Reddit, for example, can also be used as a parasite even though it's not a typical web2.0)
Anyway, to recap... yes, web 2.0s give contextual links (which are the best types of links in this regard), but - unless these web 2.0s rank very well in google by default - they are not recommended for ranking because they have low ranking power.
If you want to rank you'll have to pay money to buy links that have ranking power (quality PBNs, quality niche edits, quality guest posts, quality .edu / gov links, quality PDF submissions, in-content niche forum links, etc).
And you'll use the web 2.0s (wordpress, blogger, tumblr, etc) either as tier 1 to diversify your link profile and to dilute your anchor texts, or as tier 2 as buffer zone for your tier 3 links because tier 3 links are usually spammy / bad and you can safely point those to web 2.0 links because web 2.0s have authority so they can handle the spammy links...
the web 2.0s that you publish content on to get backlinks from (by inserting your links into that content).
Look, I would love to explain everything to you, but it would take me hours (that I don't have currently), hopefully you can understand this and won't take it the wrong way.
Just do a quick google search (or watch on YT if you're an audio learner) about what web 2.0s are and how to best use them for SEO. You will learn much more than I can explain...
But basically, what I tried to say is that if you want your web 2.0s to help you rank (although it's not guaranteed as it depends on many factors such as: the web 2.0 you use, the content you use, the SEO you do on those web 2.0s, the keywords you target, the niche you're in, etc) you'll need to treat them like you treat your own site, ie: publish content on them regularly, SEO that content, build links to it, etc...
And all of these tasks - assuming you're doing everything yourself, of course, otherwise you can hire VAs to do it for you - take time and money. And if it takes you 3-4 hours a day to work on your site and you want to nurture even only 5 web 2.0s in order to try and rank your main site with the links coming from these 5 web 2.0s... well, you're looking at 15-20 hours of work each day.
That's what I was trying to say in the previous reply: if you have to spend this time and money on a site that you have no control over (because, with web 2.0s this is true, you have very little control over your accounts, content and backlinks) and tomorrow one of these web 2.0s goes out of business or changes their business model (which happens a lot with these sites) then all of your hard work and money will have gone to waste.
Some people say that if you treat the web 2.0s like your own site and put this extra effort into building up their content and pointing link to them and whatnot you will be rewarded with rankings (albeit only for non-competitive keywords, I've genuinely not seen a keyword like "car insurance" or "forex trading" ranking with only web 2.0s), but if you have to do this for sites you don't own then it's not worth it IMO.
That's what I meant. Treat the web 2.0s for their main purpose (as link and anchor text diversity) and move on to better links, the ones that can actually rank you.
parasites are web 2.0s that have more trust with google. There are web 2.0s that rank very poorly in google (you almost never see them in any niche) and there are web 2.0s that rank very well in google.
The web 2.0s that rank well in google (Medium.com, Reddit. com - even though Reddit is not a typical web 2.0s, it's more like a community / forum type of site, etc) are considered parasites because you are parasiting on their authority and trust with google so you can get fast traffic to your site.
Sites like Reddit rank insanely fast and well in google, so you can take advantage of this to put your content on Reddit, insert a link back to your site, and index the Reddit post and then wait for the traffic and sales to come to you. I'm oversimplifying things a little, of course. In reality, you do need to know how to get on Reddit and Google's good sides (which I don't since I've never done Reddit marketing), but you get the idea... hopefully
