Backlinks form lots of links to whatever your blog contains, different pages of different content, and it's these backlinks that help you build up your profile and content library for your blog, the search engine spiders index your blog links especially when you update your blogs content regularly each day.
Backlinks can be created easily with a little planning on your part as a content writer, you get your thinking cap on and start to build up a promotional strategy, where all of your backlinks count towards your traffic strategy too.
To create your backlinks, try and think in terms of writing for article directories with a view to directing people back to your blog through a link in your author resource box.
Although this method defeats the purpose of blogging, so try and write two versions if you can of similar article type posts, one article to use on your blog and the other for an article directory submission.
Also think about adding share buttons to your blog, if people who read your blog decide to share your blog content with others and other sites, then this all counts towards more backlinks for your blogs, you may have seen these buttons for places like Digg, Stumbleupon and Delicious to name a few.
Also blog directories can help boost your traffic too, as does the concept of blog networks, where there are many varying niche related blogs and categories to be found.
Also making your content readily accessible, such as providing a valid RSS feed, so people can subscribe to your blog content through a feed reader, Feedburner is one of the best, as it provides statistics and a subscriber count of each feed you burn.
Once you understand the concept of creating useful backlinks, instead of just spamming here there and everywhere with links that people may find intrusive such as blog comment spam, you will be well on your way to having a good readership in time.
