Regarding theory being expressed that google doesn’t want you using keywords . Think about it. The whole basis of search process revolves around keywords. We don’t search for a whole page of matching data. We search on a word or phrase. Who is going to determine which words are relevant to our website. Of course search engines must leave that to us. Logic is part of that process and they still can’t get that logic from a machine. It is just too time consuming and resource heavy to try any valid effort at that. The search engines need us to provide that data at this time. If you have figured out point where search engines are deciding that “over use” can be stamped on this one, you have done well. I can show you heavy, heavy keyword placement that is being rewarded as we speak. That is now amidst results of google changes.

USE YOUR OWN LOGIC. Do what is working . If it is working, nobody can say that google is discouraging practice. Personally, I am saying only rule today is that “there are no rules”

Observe, apply logic, and react positively. Don’t quit on it, because job will never be complete. It will be a process of constant adjustment to needs of present time.

Tom Henricks I’m not considered an “expert”.

Reciprocal Linking – relatively easy to become a member and easy to use system. I have found limited response from requests. Links4Trade –disappointing for a couple of reasons –any thoughts of page rank help should be forgotten – your partners don’t even link to you from their own website so you won’t benefit from their page rank. The intended benefit is increased traffic. After placing some 150 requests and a month’s time – approximately 20 responses. Roughly 25 percent of members haven’t even provided valid email addresses. Many fly by nighters coming and going

LinkPartners .com – I like it -good response and quality websites, procedures in place for valid participation

Zeus Cyber-Robotics – probably most effective – a bit expensive – setup a bit time and resource intensive – after setup it searches net within your parameters and presents you with all prospects – There is no doubt in my mind that this will return greatest number of targeted link prospects

In summary, at moment I must give in to fact that power of someone else’s website is required to allow my own website to be recognized. Stay Tuned – It’s not over yet.
