Website backlinks in Austin, Texas

I just received an intersting question from my other website, AustinArticles.com (need backlinks to your website in Austin?).

Here’s the question:

If having backlinks to my Austin website is so important, why can’t I take all those domain names I’ve been buying and set up free hosting and essentially copy the first page of my main website into each new site with lots of backlinks?

Getting backlinks to your website can be difficult - you can read my answer at “ask the webmaster“.
