Building a Link Generating Site

Many revenue generating site owners know the importance of generating links in correspondence with search engine traffic and their page ranking. It is crucial to build as many links as you can to help generate revenue. It may sound like a difficult task to build upwards of ten thousand links or more, but it doesn't have to be. I will give you a few tips to make it run smoothly and much more easily.

It is key to pay attention to how you build your link generation system. Whether you are generating them to earn money or drive up business, it is important to have as many links as possible. Almost every site has a landing page to welcome visitors. Links to this page may be both purchased and made, but there is another very simple tool that is often overlooked. The simple creation of a menu with links to all of your featured articles can generate many clicks and many visits to your pages. On every single article, of which you can literally have thousands, you can put a link to the landing page. There is potential for thousands upon thousands of links and clicks in this area alone.

Another wonderful place to put links is in blogs. Every time you post a new blog entry, it goes into the search engines. For this reason, you should put a link to your landing page or a featured article in every single blog entry. For every 50 posts, you should generate 50 to 100 links. Many internet marketing campaigns have been built around a relatively small number of blog entries, but managing even a moderate number of entries should be relatively easy to do. Think of them as newsletters, eaach promoting a different product or feature of your website. The purpose of creating these blogs is to both generate links and interest someone enough in your product that users will click the link leading to it. At the rate of 2 articles a week, posted on both your website and blog, you will generate 316 new inbound links per month, moving your page ranking, at the end of one year, to a PR5. Many people fear getting in trouble for black hat SEO (search engine optimization), but as long as you do not use any google ads, you will be safe.

The current best way to gain page ranking is through the use of directories. There are directories for almost everything these days, from blogs to forums to podcasts. It is easy to build your own directory, and you can get a script for doing so free or very cheap. Directories tend to increase in page ranking rather quickly, and directories sometimes receive multiple pr8 pages within their first year. Links on pr8 pages sell for as much as $1000 a month, or can be used to increase traffic to your website.

After directories, forums are said to receive the net highest page ranking. A link from a forum will typically increase your page rank much faster than a link from a blog. It is worthwhile to note, however, that most search engine forums like Yahoo and MSN are closed to Google sites. Forum posting can get quite tedious, and if you are going to post for any length of time, it is recommended to create your own forum. After creating a forum, you should create about 15-30 accounts and have them converse with one another, offering links one at a time and offering information in bite size chunks rather than all at once.

All in all, there are a few worthwhile methods for generating links. It is up to you to decide which method or methods work best for you, and put forth the needed time and effort for them to really pay off.
