Text Links for Better SEO
Let's talk a little more about using Text Links for better SEO placement becuase it's a
very relevant tool that you have at your disposal and something
that you should consider exploring.
Working with text links to help with your SEO rankings is going
to involve a good solid chunk of time. So, don't think that this
is an easy solution because it's not, but it is solid ... at
least it is for now. Here's some search term improvement
techniques for you to take into account:
1. Link Exchanges
Used to be everyone was exchanging links with anyone else who
give them a link. Then Google danced and bamm ... doing that
will get you lower placement. So, you have to be smart and ONLY
exchange links with other domains that are relevant to your
site's topics. Do that and you will see your domain move up the
ranks.
2. Billboards
This is something kind of new and is working for now until
Google bans the companies offering this service. I'd say use it
while it works my friend!
Sites using Billboards
are noticing significant rank increases. One site recorded the
following...
Over the last 3 months, we have added about 20 unique billboards ... We
did about 2 per week, and every week we would see position moves
of 1 - 2 positions. This is an extremely effective tool because
it gives you relevant backlink content on different IP's. Take
the time to write good article/news stories and plug your
company or product. This technique will pay off. Don't believe
me? pick an obscure term without competition, and put up 2 - 5
billboards using the term as anchor text through-out your BB's
and you will see position moves within 4 weeks.
The use of Billboards is
currently a very good way to get your website relevant
positioning in a shorter period of time and you can do so for
reasonable fees. You only need to pay for Billboard space on
another's IP for 30 days, by then the search engine will have
found you. Make sure the IP is spidered by all the major search
engines regularly. After 30 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. Very yummy
search engine food!
3. Text Link Advertising
Text link
ads are very affordable for those not wanting to
dedicate all the time it takes to getting relevant backlinks.
Okay, here's what I think is the best strategy with 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's my
opinion, others will disagree. My own testing is showing Google
really doesn't pay much attention to their own PR system ... who
knew?!
So, buy links that are PR4-6 and don't pay over $25 for them ...
unless of course they happen to be mine ... lol. Here again, I'd
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 aren't in the Linkworth repository
... hint, hint!
These types of one-way links 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!
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.
