some brotherly advice regarding link building.

August 13, 2008

links are a main ingredient in SEO, and a great deal of the work in search engine optimization is built around obtaining them.

here are some traditional ways to get some links to your web site :

1.search for your keyword in search engines. go through the result pages (aka as SERPs  which stands for search engine result pages) and start sending link requests to the websites you find.

2.look for more specific websites related to your web site such as *keyword* add link, *keyword* directory and so on…

3.submit your website to relevant directories.

writing the correct type of link request email will many times mark the diffrence between a successful and unsuccessful link swap attempt. some common mistakes in link swap requests are;

1.using a generic email adress:

contacts with email adresses such as (for example) linksinfo@gmail.com or any shady lookin email adresses like that are usually not so good. the recipient of your mail wants to know theres a person on the other side of the email, not some automation that he will skip without paying any attention to.

2.being patient and aiming for good relations with the site owner:

show some genuine interest, lets say you’re sending email to a blog. first, write to the webmaster. congratulate him for his very relevant website. ( get specific, mention some of his new updates or something.) Try asking about recent updates, a more thorough explanation of something in his site or maybe even point out some spelling mistake or other error in his page. (many webmasters appreciate the help of random people in debugging they’re websites)

3.suggest your link in a proper manner

once you do get the webmasters attention you should ask for the link and try to underline the relevance between your websites. try and matching your link to a relevant article or paragraph. For example, if you are dealing with SEO services
