Hello Everyone,
I've had a thought whilst writing my newsletter this month. I don't do it too often as it hurst too much, but I was thinking about search engine optimisation, and the most important aspect being link building.
It goes like this...
For the first time ever my newsletter readership has now broken the 10,000 readership number with the help of the forum members, and of those 10,000 at least 90% of you will have a website. Every single one of you who has a website will want it to rank highly in the likes of Google and MSN...and the best way to achieve that is through what is known as your link popularity.
So my theory is simple...
If you want to take part post your message to this thread giving your website address, what you want the link text (anchor text) to be, and a brief one or two sentence description for your website.
If someone reads your post and wishes to exchange links with you they add your link to their own website, and then PM you telling you they have done it and asks you to return the favour.
Rules...
This will work best if we all take part... I want to see thousands of replies to this thread.
Secondly, if you are going to take part then keep your side of the bargain. This will only be as successful as those who take part.
No links to porn, "get rich quick" or other rubbish, this is meant for genuine businesses. The moderators will delete inappropiate posts here.
Big hint... as much as your may not believe this but exchanging links with your competitors will help the both of your out no end
Its all about relevance.
(edit)
I've had a couple of PMs asking what Anchor Text is, so its basically this...
If you look at my signature below you will see the links to my websites are not labelled as the company names, but instead labelled as the keywords for my services. This tells the search engines what the websites the link goes to are related to, and basically the theory behind it is that it will help my websites rank higher for those keywords.
