So is social bookmarking a good way to get more backlinks? Of course it is a good way to get backlinks. They still work. Backlinks from these sites are like appetizers, not the main meal. They are good, but there are not "everything". Yet, still you should submit to social sites. If you have time to do it manually why not? If you can hire someone to do it why not? If you can pay for a social bookmarking software why not? It always important that you never rejec... more...

First of all, the homepage should have content and a menu. Not just a bunch of links. Content can be an article or couple of them and a menu so visitors can navigate through your website easily. For example in the menu put a link to the homepage, articles page and a sitemap. A sitemap is a page, where you list the most important pages of your website. Instead of putting links and other link exchange partners on your website sidebar, you can create a so called linkspage. This will i... more...

This is a list of some half baked theories most commonly known. Including what the theory basically is all about and how to do it right way. Starting with the Duplicate Content theory. Make sure your website content is unique, you do not have identical pages and if you copy an article from an internal page (or another website) link to the source. Link exchanges are dead. Make sure you do not just use link exchanges as a means to get backlinks. But obviously you should use them sinc... more...

Sometimes search engines, especially Google puts your website temporary out of the index entirely, or you will see a big drop in rankings... they put you on the last pages. This may happen while you are on page 4,5,6,7, not while you are number 1. I mean while you are optimizing your website (you are not yet number 1)! This thing they do occurs to websites when search engines are still evaluating them. They sort of put it "on hold" to see and then analyze it carefully to de... more...

If you answer yes to any of the following, then you need to fix your linkspages quickly. You have more than 100 links on your linkspage, (outbound links, also known as external links) links pointing to other peoples sites. You do not have categories and subcategories on your linkspage. Means you have just one page or several of them with tons of unrelated links. You do not link to your linkspage (the main page) from your homepage. If you have categories and subcategories you... more...

I have seen many that suck, so I completely ignore doing a link exchange with them. First of all a linkspage is a directory with categories and subcategories where you put your link exchange partners. I placed here four simple rules. This will not only make your website more user friendly, but you attract more link exchange partners. If you are not getting enough link exchange requests, or you get many rejected link exchanges, or few emails asking for link exchange, these rules may solve ... more...

From my experience (since no one knows what search engine algorithms are) here is a "ranking pattern" I have seen. This happened not once but on more than one website. By the way: Algorithms are techniques that search engine spiders use to determine which sites rank Number 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, and so on. They keep most of these techniques secret. This thing can happen to you too, and here I am going to help you understand what is happening so you will remain relaxed and ca... more...

The Big Deal This majority share of attention for a m... more...
