1. Download
google toolbar @ http://toolbar.google.com
The tool bar will show you the page rank of the page you are visiting.
On the toolbar is a page rank bar. It ranks from 1-10. If they bar is
gray, the page has not been ranked by googles (new site). If the bar is
white, it has been ranked and is a zero (0). If there is a green bar,
that is the page rank. Hold your cursor over the green and it will tell
you exactly what the page rank is.
2. In your word pad,
you will need to have available the following information.
Title: xxxxxx
Url: http:// xxxxx
Description: xxxxxx (200 characters or less)
Linking
URL Page: http://xxxxxx
A letter to sent to webmasters asking to
exchange links with your information included.
3. Do a googles search for your keywords with
quotes. Example: "home business""reciprocal links"
4. Pick a site and go to it. Check your toolbar
and see how it ranks. When your on the site, look for the link to
links. It may say links, resources, partners, link to us, add a link.
It should be on the home page. Sometimes it is on the bottom of the
page. Click the link and there are usually instructions on how to link.
Some pages have categories. Click on the category and look again to see
how that page ranks. This is the page that the search engines are going
to pick up your link and rate you.
Most sites will have a code to copy and paste. Copy and paste it then
put it on your site. If the site just gives you their information
without a code, then you have to code it.
The code should look like this.
<p><a href="http://www.webspawner.com/users/reahna/"
target='blank'>Re'ahnas Home Business Opportunity</a>
<br>You can have a profitable business from your own home. We
offer FREE training, support, and website. Our system will show you how
to build a successful business with a great income from home.</p>
It should
contain the URL, Title, Description, in that order.
It will look like this:
Re'ahnas Home Business
Opportunity
You can have a
profitable business from your own home. We offer FREE training,
support, and website. Our system will show you how to build a
successful business with a great income from home.
Then go back to their site and ad your
information. Some site have forms to fill out. Simple copy and paste
the information from your note pad into the form. Others, you have to
email the webmaster. That is where the letter comes in. Click the email
link and copy and paste the letter into the email. Please be
professional with your emails, You are making a first impression!
Some sites will not link
to you, you need to check your links to see if they are linking back.
Give them some time to link. I give them about three weeks. Then I send
a second request. If I can not find my link on their site or I have not
heard from them after six weeks, I simply delete their link. I also
send them an email stating I have done so and the reason why.
It is better to have many high ranking
page links . Just because the home page ranks a 5, that
doesn't mean the link page ranks a 5. Keep this in mind!
On a
technical note, outbound links should open in a new window. This will
leave your site open on the viewers' screens, so they will come back to
it after they close the other site (even though they may have forgotten
about it). You do this by placing a "target" attribute in the anchor
tag of your link and creating a name for the new window.
