-------------------------------------------------------- That's it!

Here are a couple of companies that promote link exchanges between all kinds of other companies:

- http://www.linkpartners.com/ - http://www.addurlhere.com/ - http://www.marketzone.net/addurl-exchange.asp - http://www.smartads.info/links - http://www.reciprocallink.com/ - http://www.link-city.com/ - http://www.go4links.com/Web-Internet.htm - http://www.plainlinks.com/

These are just some examples. They are not listed here as best there is, just some of many companies out there! -------------------------------------------------------- If your searching for companies to exchange links with, here's a couple of things to look for!

1. Look for buttons or links that say this: - Links - Link To Us - Reciprocal Links - Link Exchange - Directory (add your site and link back)

2. When looking through other link programs, make sure they say something like this: "Link to us and well link to you" Many sites often only have "Help us promote our site, link to us!" and they don't even link to you!

Not to say this is a bad thing, but if i'm going to link to you, least you can do is link to me! :)

I hope this article has opened your mind about Link Exchanges!

Here's an example of our "Resource Section" http://www.smartads.info/resources

You'll notice how each category has specific sites that get listed within them.

Ok, so I went a little off topic with respect to this article but

you'll see how everything is connected together. Once google starts ranking your site, you don't want to leave any stone left un-turned.

So back to getting a google rank without submitting your site. Once you start performing link exchanges with other sites, just keep on going and going and I promise that eventually, Google will start picking up some of your links on other sites. Once this starts to happen you're google rank will rise.

So just keep doing what you're doing and let Google do it's own thing.

When your ready and you're link popularity grows, then you can submit your site to Google and reap rewards.

So many companies do this process backwards and wonder why they don't get listed in Google. Or like what happened to me, Google lists your

site right away but then in a couple of weeks, presto, your site is gone from their listing and your left confused as to why!
