The conclusion of "Linking and your Home Business website"Here is the conclusion of Home Business writer Ron Knowltons' article about linking strategies for your Home Business website. And not only that, but think of the multiplication factor as the articles spread to more and more web sites! The process is ongoing. I am not saying this to brag. It's just something that's started happening lately that has me almost giddy with excitement. The truth is a lot of my traffic is coming from these articles! It hit me the other day as I was looking through my site statistics. What a superb linking strategy! Here is the process and how it works: One Send out articles that you've written. Two Then they are reprinted in newsletters or on web sites. Three People read the articles. Four Then they click on the link to your site at the end of the article. Five And suddenly you have traffic coming in! And it is all free advertising I paid nothing at all for it! Don't get me wrong. I am sure that trading reciprocal links works sometimes. But I did not have to trade for these links. My articles were added and the link to my site was automatic. I did not have to link back at all to get these great links! Had I followed the normal procedure I would: First, write a simple email to each webmaster of each site where I want a link back to my site. second, Offer a link in return from my site. Chances are the webmasters at these sites either would: 1) ignore my email, or 2) turn me down flat, or 3) send me a copy of their advertising rates. What really are the chances of getting the kind of results I want from this method? Think about it - these webmasters are not in business to give traffic away to others. They are in business to make money. And you make money by attracting targeted traffic to your web site and offering something these visitors really want or need! What advantage is it to you as a webmaster to give traffic away to a site that receives considerably less traffic than yours? And that is the magic of articles! It completely turns this around! With my articles I give these webmasters something of value that they want and need - free content. They can in turn use the articles to attract visitors to their sites. I, in turn, get what I really want - additional traffic to my web site - meaning more subscribers to my ezine and additional money in my pocket! That's what I would call a win-win situation all the way around! Ron Knowlton is a former journalist and the founding editor at |
