      Before you start reading

this article I must warn you - everything that was written here

is my own experience in link exchange. This article should not

be referred to as official advice or proven techniques. I only

want to share the experience of the helpful methods I used.



      When you started your

website you probably knew that two major factors play the

biggest role in search engine placement: links and content.



      1.The first recommended way

to get links is to develop useful, unique and original content.

Webmasters who visit your website will see that content is good

and will link to your website to provide their visitors with

some useful websites(info maybe?). If you searched Internet for

some information, then you know how hard it can be to find a

useful website.



      2.Link exchange with other

websites. There are two ways you can exchange links:



      a)One page links – you

place a link on one page and the other website places a link to

your website



      b)Site wide links – you

place a link on all pages of your website



      Both variants have pluses

and minuses. For example, I believe that a link on all pages

counts by Google as a link from one website; but if a website

has thousands and thousands pages, the repeated link title on

each page may effect you position in search engine results for

that specific keyword.



      If you are doing one page

link exchange, I would recommend you to create special pages

where links to other sites will be stored.



      Thousands webmasters every

day search for other websites to exchange links. When selecting

a link partner, pay attention to the number of links on the page

where he offers to place your link. The more links on that page,

the lower benefit you will get exchanging links with this

website. Also, try to keep numbers of links lower then 40 in all

your link pages.



      If you want to exchange

site wide links, try to exchange non-direct links. Non-direct

means that you must follow the pattern:



      Website "A" gives a link to

website "B", "B" website gives a link to website "C". This way

the benefit from site wide link exchange may be increased

significantly.



      3.Write articles or

tutorials. Make them free of change to republish if a link back

to your website is provided with the article.



      4.If your website is close

to web development area you may want to create online software

(such as guestbook, online calendar, etc.) with the open source

and permission to use if a link back is included on pages. As an

example of popularity gained that way you may see website of

phpbb – free online message board.



      Now you know where to start

and the direction to go. If you found this article useful,

please include the link to http://www.metamorphozis.com<
