Text Links and SEO (Continued).....Here is page 2 of Bobbie's excellent article regarding pagerank and linking strategies for your home business website. Bear and mind that Bobbie's 'byline' or 'resource box' is located at the conclusion of this article, on the next page... (continued from previous page)....Method #2: Billboards This is something sort of new and is working until Google.com bans the companies offering it. I would say use it while it works! Sites using Billboards are noticing substantial rank increases. One site recorded the following... Over the last three months, we have added about twenty unique billboards ... We did about two a week, and every week we would see position moves of one - two positions. This is an extremely effective tool since it gives you relevant backlink content on different IP's. Take the time to write good articles or news stories and plug your company or product. This technique will pay off. Do not believe me? pick an obscure term with no competition, and put up two to five billboards using the term as anchor text through-out your BB's and you will see position moves within about four weeks. The use of Billboards is currently a great way to get your website good positioning in a shorter amount of time and you can do so for very reasonable fees. You only need to pay for Billboard space on another's IP for thirty days, by then the search engine will have found you. Make sure the IP is spidered by all the major search engines on a regular basis. After thirty days, you can remove your page and go on to the next IP. Keep doing this and you will build a repository of text rich backlinks to your own domain. Method #3: Text Link Advertising Text link ads are very affordable for those not wanting to dedicate all their time obtaining relevant backlinks. Here is what I think is the best strategy in regards to buying text links. Most likely that PR8 website isn't going to get you any higher placement than the PR4-PR6 will. That is my opinion, others may disagree. My own testing is showing Google really does not pay much attention to their own PR system ... who knew?! So, buy links that are PR4-6 and don't pay over twenty-five dollars a piece for them ... unless of course they happen to be mine ... lol. Here again, I would recommend you use Linkworth and use their set of tools to determine the worth of any link you might be considering ... those tools will even help you with domains that are not in the Linkworth repository ... hint, hint! These types of one-way backlinks will really help your placement. If you can get one-way links from other sources for free, go for it and make sure they have better PR than you do! Method#4: Content Development Well now here's a novel idea, the more content you ad to your website, then better your rankings will be ... and go one step further, you must do so on a consistant basis ... like every two weeks ad a new page. Ad pages with 250-500 words of relevant content and relevant links. And, this is really important ... make sure all your webpages have different content by at least 40%. Google is so smart it actually knows if you've got the same page up on the domain ... and it knows if you've got the same domain mirrored on other domains. You have to do the work! |
