Complete Strategy #3:
Begin a Link Exchange Campaign to create high quality content, high PageRank links to your site by utilizing the following steps, in order:
1. Create a links or resources page on your site
2. Establish a list of at least 50 related but non-competing, high quality content sites with a high Google PageRank that you would like to exchange links with by doing the following:
• Download Google toolbar (http://toolbar.google.com) to be able to establish PageRank grading for the sites that come up in the following search results
• Do searches on Google for:
- Terms that will show search results displaying sites that relate to your own site, but are not direct competitors
Check out these sites, one by one, beginning with the ones listed first in the search results, for quality content, non-competitiveness, and Web master's email address, and note down in a list the sites that meet these criterion, recording as well the site's title and description from the homepage source code
appropriate category [which is where the Link Relevancy comes from], and get that title and description optimized!
Get into the ODP. Do the same research as you did at Yahoo for the best category.
Find out which of the thousands of specialty
SE's and directories that your site is a good fit for, and submit to them.
After you are done with 1 - 5, build another content rich site, and on this one, concentrate on your next batch of kw's. Cross link the home pages. Repeat.
Even though blogging is all the rage these days, I think it will go the way of link farms in the not-too-distant future, especially if/when the SE's determine that it is just another case of spamming. We are staying away from it, and concentrating on the 6 tactics above.
Of much less importance is cross linking within each of your individual sites. I have gotten away from heavy cross linking, relying instead on good site maps [which addresses spiderability, not link pop].
- Terms that will show search results displaying sites that directly compete with your own site
- Terms that will show search results displaying sites that directly compete with your own site
Beginning with the ones listed first in the Google search results, check out each site with a linking tool (e.g. of tool, go to http://chatologica.com.) Click on Web Site Popularity Check at the bottom of the page to establish what sites link to theirs, and make a list of these linking sites. Then check out each of these sites that are linked to your direct competitor for quality content, non-competitiveness, and Web master's email address, and note down on the same list you began in b., the sites that meet these criterion, recording as well the site's title and description from the homepage source code.
