Ways to Build Links
Implementing a positive strategy for marketing that maintains a consistant flow of web traffic to your site is by no means impossible. To get this web traffic to your site you need a significant search engine presence, and to achieve this, you need to main things, a quality website that is easy for Google to read and a series of links linking to your site from authority sites all over the web.
This is not as difficult as it sounds as there are many systems in place to make this happen for you. First though, you need to understand that not all links are equal. Google uses a Page Rank system to value each page of each site that it knows about. Ranked from 0 ” 10 with 10 being the best, most popular and valuable sites, and 0 being sites it knows about but thinks very little of. Below 0 is a grey bar graphic in the Google toolbar which indicates that either Google doesnt know that the site exists or worse than that, that the site has been blacklisted by Google and should be avoided.
In a perfect world, we’d all have lots of links from the home-pages PR-10 sites, however the fact that there are only around 10 PR-10 sites that exist somewhat hinders this approach, and those 10 or so won’t usually link to many other websites because they don’t need to, have nothing to gain from it, and would never stop receiving link requests. Even slightly lower PR sites, like PR-7/8s are very picky about who they link to. These highly ranked sites are known as “authority” sites and tend not to link to lower ranked sites (not very often anyway) because they simply have nothing to gain from it.
What you’re aiming to do it to get links from as many of the highest PR websites as you possibly can, and/or from new sites with no PR yet, but that show potential to have a good PR in the future (basically sites that are building links to promote themselves). Looking out for sites like these is a good long term strategy to undertake because you never know what sites will have high PR in a few months / a year or so’s time.
How do you get links? This is the question. You can search online for sites that link to other sites, as there are many reciprocal link management sites around. The problem with these sites is that reciprocal links are being downgraded by the major search engines as they are increasingly being seen as an arrangement between two sites in order to gain a link. They have not been discounted completely however as it is natural for sites to reciprocate links for example between customer and supplier etc.
By far the most efficient way to get to the good seats in the search engine results ranking (at the top) is with one way links (getting sites to link to you without you having to link back). As people aren’t very inclined to give away links for nothing, this can be quite difficult. Some sites may just genuinely like your site’s content and give link to you as a resource for their users, but generally speaking, you will have to give them return
You may have some difficulty with this if you only have one website, or if you have two that are hosted in the same place, they’ll have the same IP address and so it will look to search engines as if they are they the same site. The are lots of solutions to this problem, but one way links are definately the most effective.
Effectively, your site is entered into a triangular arrangment where your site (site A) links to site B, which then links to site C, which then links back to site A (your site) this is beneficial to each site to the value of one one-way link. The big search engines cannot trace these links and so they reward you with a big push up the results rankings.
