iMacros is a Firefox add-on from iOpus which allows you to record and edit macros as you visit and interact with a web page. These scripts can be used for link building to visit web sites that generate an indexable web page based on a domain name.
To perform my technique, we will use iMacros to open a URL. Actually, we will use it to generate a bunch of URLs one after another once the current page loads. The following is just one method of link building with iMacros:
- Make sure you are in Firefox.
-
Bookmark this post so you can come back easily.
- Install the iMacros addon.
- You need to restart like all add-ons.
- iMacros should be open in your sidebar, if not, then go to Tools > Add-ons and click on it.
- Save the list to your computer as OneWayLinks.iim (.iim is extension for iMacro scripts) to the location listed under Folder Macros listed when you click on the third pane Edit then Options.
- Open that file. If you domain name is www.example.com, then replace DOMAINNAME with only your site’s domain name (ie: example) and replace TLD with the top level domain of your domain (ie: com).
- Click on the third pane Edit then Refresh Macro List.
- Once you refreshed the list then you should see the macro listed, click on the first pane Play and then the Play button.

Now sit back and watch the magic. iMacros will load the first page and will wait until the it is completely loaded until moving on to the next one.
A nice way to test the effectiveness of this technique is to create a Google Alert with your domain as the Search Term. Within a day or so, you should see your link on the sites from the list. Granted these aren’t going to be a super high quality, but it should help your link building efforts.
This should be your feet wet with iMacros and it’s possibilities. If you have any other ways you use the add-on or know of sources to build one way links that would be appropriate for the script, let me know.

Wow, more great info about building links, thank you for the tidbits
