Link Popularity: Is Your Site Worthy?

When we say that more number of incoming links pointing toward your website defines Link Popularity, we are talking about your "website's worthiness". Link Popularity isn't a chemical formula that can be attained by mixing two or more components. Gaining maximum number of links pointing to your website requires skills, backed up by your website's worthiness. If your site is worthy of a link, you can earn a great profit with Link Popularity. And if it isn't, all your Link Building efforts might go in vain!

So the next question is 'how to make your site worthy'- It may now sound a cliché, but yes, Content is the king! At least with Link Popularity, it certainly is!

First and foremost: Link those pages that the site owner/directory editor thinks would be beneficial for its visitors. Irrelevant Link Building is not only ineffectual, but also not really good for your website. The content should be compelling enough to make people hook up to your website.
A Tip: It doesn't matter whether your website is an "information source" or a "selling ground". You can always provide the visitors with articles, blogs and product/ service reviews to serve their interests.

The next step: Where to exchange links? Now that you believe in your website's worthiness of attracting inbound links, next step is to knock the:-

* Famous directories, and
* Relevant websites


You can try all the regional and thematic directories that can become your link partner. It's also important to ensure that the web site with which you are linking serves your interest. For example, if you deal in Website designing, try to find your Link Building partner in a site that offers Website development, SEO services, Web Hosting, etc. It is likely that a person having an interest in similar activity/services/products/plans would click the link and read about your website (provided the content is compelling and the information, worth it).
A Tip: Avoid the use of "form letters" while asking for links. It's better to form an email with a personal note and send them to the potential link exchange partners.

Another way: There is yet another way of easy Link Building. Write articles about your website's topic and allow other sites to include them in their database, of course not allowing them to change the links of your content. This is one of the most convenient and successful ways of Link Popularity.

A Final Tip: All-in-all, just make your site 'worthy' of attracting links. A good website, clubbed with right strategic approach faces no difficulty while Link Building.
