Introduction:Improving your link popularity is a big part of optimizing your website for search engines. Many webmasters ignore this very rewarding process. The most common reason for this is
time it takes. Many webmasters just don’t have
time. There are services out there that will do this for you, but if you have
time to do this yourself, I highly recommend you to do this! Please take some time to read through this article and learn how you can get
most out of improving your link popularity in a short amount of time.
What not to do:
One thing that is very important is
quality of
links that link to your website. Links pointing to your from a low ranking, low traffic and unrelated website are very close to pointless. Before we go through he few steps to building a quality link directory, there are a few things you need to know not to do:
- Do not add your link to a large link list that many webmasters upload to their website and consist of links only. This is considered a link farm. Important search engines like Google recognize these links pages as link farms and will not count these as incoming links. In fact it could hurt your rankings. Some other search engines are know for banning your websites if you participate in one of these link farms.
- Do not create a link directory and use this directory for multiple websites. Not only does this get close to being a link farm, it also creates a “links nest”. It is very easy for search engine spiders to recignize that all these pages are
same.
- Do not use Zeus for creating your links pages. Google does not spider links pages created by this program which makes it pointless.
- Do not decide whether you will link to a website just because of its Google Page Rank. If it is a nice professional website, and it is a good resource for your visitors, you should definatley link to it!
