Hey I have a service website where I sell online services like web design. I am putting a lot of effort/money/time into SEO right now and I was wondering if I should also be link building to my blog articles or just specifically to my services pages/main page. Any information on this would be greatly appreciated
 
You should build links to your website as a whole and not building too many links to a specific page. Balance.
 
You should be building links to your blog post, then internal linking to your main page and other post. You can do some main page link as well.
 
obviously build links to your blog posts, in a tough niche like "web design" I am willing to bet that the sales and traffic will come faster from your blog posts than from your services pages when you're a newcomer to the industry (if you've targeted the right keywords that is, otherwise you'll still struggle ranking the blog posts too)...

Also, don't point ALL of your backlinks to your blog posts. As a matter of fact, save most of them for your homepage and for 3-4 other important (usually category / service / main silo) pages, as authority is the name of the game in SEO nowadays, and the higher authority your site has the easier you will rank even for keywords you don't target. And to build up your domain's authority you need to point the strongest backlinks you can get to your homepage....

Now, depending on which type of links you get you might get away with some tricks. Like, for example...

- if you're buying quality PBNs (which you should do as these are very important for competitive niches like "web design") point them all to your homepage... ok, maybe not all of them. But point most of them to your homepage, and some of them to other important main pages.

For example, if you buy / build / acquire 10 quality PBN links and you have 3 important (category / silo) pages on your site whose authority you wish to boost, point 7 of the PBNs to the homepage and the other 3 to each one of the 3 main category / silo pages...

Same thing you can do with niche edits / link insertions...

But if you're building web 2.0s, guest posts, article directories, etc (although, article directories are considered spam nowadays so I wouldn't recommend you get article directory links... not as your tier 1 links anyway), you can insert 2-3 links into each article, and this is where you can capitalize on this benefit of guest posting / web 2.0s by linking from within each guest post / web 2.0 once to the homepage, and once to either a relevant blog post, or to a main category / silo page, or to both (in case that 3 links are allowed per post)....
 
Absolutely. Just start with the simple one - building to homepage. Links from Authority pages will be more than ok. Register on different websites for web design companies, start ups, try to add links there.

If have resources - try to do autoposting to social media, use web 2.0, guest posts (quite diffucult without resources) and maybe crowd, PBN links, comments.
All that stuff is easy findable here on bhw - there also lists of websites where you can submit for free your links

It`s worth it! But still content is a king ;)
 
Yeah, build links to both your blog articles and service pages

balanced approach enhances overall site authority and visibility
 
Your primary focus should be your service page, try to build links for them with a diversify of keywords to help in rankings. For your blog posts, do internal link building with good contents to your service pages. I would say 70-30 for building links to your service page and blog posts.

If your articles are well optimized for your targeted keywords and provide valuable content, they can rank naturally without additional linkbuilding. Instead, focus on creating a strong interlinking strategy and building backlinks to your homepage and key service pages.

Focus on building links to both your blog articles and service pages to boost overall SEO and drive traffic to all parts of your site.

Focus on building backlinks to both your service pages and blog articles use your service page for direct conversation and invest some in blog post as well for broad traffic and authority building so that you can use your blog to support your service page with internal link balancing efforts for a well-rounded SEO strategy. Quality links from relevant sites are key.
 
Building links to Main page is essential because it directly impacts your business. High-quality backlinks can improve their rankings, driving more traffic to the pages that convert visitors into customers. Targeting relevant industry sites, business directories, and partnerships can be particularly effective. Building links to your blog articles can also be highly valuable. Well-linked blog content can rank well for informational keywords, bringing in traffic that can be nurtured into leads. Additionally, popular blog posts can internally link to your service pages, passing on some of the link equity and helping those pages rank better.A balanced approach is often the best strategy
