How to Exchange links with other Sites

As a result of search engine changes, linking with other sites is becoming an increasingly iportant way to generate traffic to your website. Links done properly will repay the effort and not be subject to the whims of the search engines. No more need to be concerned unduly about algorithmn changes and the “Google dance”.

Why have a Links Page ?

A links page should give your visitors a choice of quality information and resources, not just a web page to improve your search engine rankings. Quality information on a links page is the best long-term strategy to improve search engine ranking.

Search engines are becoming very sophisticated and realise that many sites are putting up links merely to improve their rankings. Always exchange links with web sites that are connected with your site’s theme.

How Do you Find Link Exchange Partners?

One way is to go to the search engines and look for sites that are compatible with your own. Send the webmaster an email requesting requesting a link or phone him or her personally.

An easier way is to register with the SiteSell free link exchange program which will give you quality links and save you a lot of time. To register free for the SiteSell link exchange program go to :

How can I tell the web site I want to exchange with has any traffic?

Check the traffic ranking with Alexa (www.alexa.com). This will give you a good idea of its popularity. Another way is to check its page rank with Google. If a web site has a page rank of 4, it is more popular than one with a page rank of 20. Try to exchange links with sites that have more traffic but you must be realistic also.

How do I show my links on my web Site?

You can put your links anywhere on your web site, provided you do not have a large page with links to all kinds of sites. Remember, keep your links relevant to the content of your site.

If you have only a few links, the best way is to have a list with the title of the web site and a short description of its content. Large numbers of links are not recommended as it looks a bit tacky.

Exchange links can be worth the time and effort if done properly. The golden rule is only exchange links with other web sites that have content related to yours.

This should be useful for all readers - I’d like to share some sites with you. I am certain you will enjoy the insight and sites here. Are you looking for home security or some extra energy?

Camping Gear

We went on a family camp trip a few days ago. Sometimes the mountains just dump a ton of rain on you when you least expect it. The tent we own isn’t made for back country camping so we had to search for a new tent. This was a close call for shopping for a camping tent. It arrived right on time. Whew. Sometimes I worry when I order online that I’ll get the wrong stuff. This was just right. Hurry up on the shippping. The mountains are so beautiful. It was an awesome time. So refreshing!

Security Systems

Home security was a top priority to get done before our vacation trip. There’s always that time where you think - oh crap, what if my photos are taken? Theft does crazy things to your head I think. You feel so violated. We searched through Family Home Security and ended up with the right stuff to get a good system in place. It felt good to have it installed the instant it was in. Ready for another vacation. Hooray!

eFusjon Healthy Drinks

Living in a tent for a week can be tiresome. We had been efusjon members for a short time and are already happy to be part of the efusjon opportunity. Not only are children exhausting and worthwhile, taking them camping triples the effect. Glad to have efusjon nearby. I was energized for at least 12 hours sometimes with the drink. Awesome. Even though we bought in for the drink, we’re already making money because of the compensation plan - it’s amazing. Sign up at the link above now.
