| − | ==Link Building vs. Link Baiting==
| |
| − | Link Building (called link Ninja in a below article) is where you ask other websites to link to you and the advantage is that you can directly ask key websites to link to you. Also, you can control better what anchor text links are from websites linking to you. For example, if you have a canary article you want the hypertext that links to you to have the word canary in it. When link building you want to vary the anchor text to keep the search engines happy. So on 3 out of 4 websites you might have the word "canary" when link building but on other websites you have the words "canary article" or "excellent canary article". If you are just starting out I would have 2 out of 3 be the key words and the others be close to the keywords. Of course, if you use a combination of link baiting and link building this is less of an issue.

| |
| − | Here are some articles on the issue of linking building versus link baiting:

| |
| − | When link building you want to have the websites link to you from webpages at the site that is linking to you that have the highest Google PageRank if they are gracious enough to do so or it makes sense for them to do so to help offer quality and relevant material on a particular webpage of their website (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank ). Too see what the Google PageRank for a website is you can install the Google Toolbar to your computer (see: http://www.google.com/tools/firefox/toolbar/FT3/intl/en/index.html ).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Various types of websites to get links from:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | 1. Get links from the top Google ranked websites for your search term or similar search terms
| |
| − |
| |
| − | 2. Post links at topic related forums.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | 3. Post links at topic related blogs. Here are some resources for posting at blogs:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Use the search box at http://technorati.com/ to find recent blog postings for various topics.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Here are some additional resources and tips:

| − |
| |
| − | http://blogsearch.google.co.uk/
| |

| |
| − |
| |
| − | Since .edu domain websites carry more weight at the search engines you can do an advanced Google search to find .edu domain blogs that will give you more weight when you post to them.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Here is how you do it:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | 1. First got to http://www.google.com/
| |
| − |
| |
| − | 2. Then click on advanced search which is here: http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Now supposing you wanted blogs related to atheism at edu domain websites.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | You would put the words atheism at Find web pages that have...
| |
| − |
| |
| − | all these words: atheism
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Then you would put the word blog at one of the three boxes here:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | one or more of these words: blog
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Now some edu blogs will allow anyone to post to them but some insist that you have a special log on.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ===HTML BLOGS Links VS NON-HTML Blog Links===
| |
| − | Some blogs insists that you use HTML coding to put in a link and other blogs won't allow you to use HTML. Often you can use a preview button to test out your post.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Here is how you do HTML type links:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | HTML
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Let us say you wanted to have the hypertext for the link be the words Jesus is God so when they clicked the words Jesus is God in a sentence it would go to your website. Here is how you would do it using HTML coding:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Christian state that
| |
| − | <a href="http://www.whoisjesus-really.com/">Jesus is God.</a>
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Here is another example which would would the hypertext link "Is Jesus God?"
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <a href="http://www.whoisjesus-really.com/">Is Jesus God?</a>
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Now if a blog does not allow HTML you can simply post the following at a blog:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | John, I think you raised a good point. And the central issue here is the issue of whether Jesus Christ is God. I think the following resource will be helpful in answering the question of whether or not Jesus is God:
| |
| − | http://www.whoisjesus-really.com

| − | ==Link Popularity Check==
| |
| − | http://www.marketleap.com/publinkpop/ (this website is sort of flaky when it comes to telling you how many links your URL or website has as far as what it shows at any given time. Perhaps this is due to a website being up or down though as the website I was mainly interested in had technical problems when I used this tool. However, it does seem to provide reliable access to the Google and Yahoo links that it does show. For example, it might say your URL only has 257 yahoo links when it actually has 1,202 yahoo links. However, the 257 links it does show will likely be accessible when you click on Yahoo or Google links. One good thing is you can use this tool to see links your competitor has and then get them to link to you.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | A more reliable checker of how many links a URL has is by using this program: http://www.seoquake.com/ However, it often only shows the number of Google and Yahoo links when you do your first search using a search engine and then on a later search during a internet session it will show zeros for these as far as a search for your article using a search engine. Also, you can click on the number given for the Google or yahoo links and then it will give you the specific links that are listed. Using the "who is" function you can find the telephone number or email for a website administrator and then ask him/her to link to you.
