Manhattan Beach Linking Strategies

Use Links to Improve Web Rankings and Visibility

Benchmark Information Technology uses a variety of linking strategies to help drive your revenue up and increase your company’s online visibility.

The idea behind our strategies is to utilize relevant and effective links to drive the kind of targeted traffic that will contribute to your growth and profits.

There are two types of links to consider: inbound and outbound. The former are links from pages on external websites linking directly to a page on your site. Think of them as doors through which visitors can freely enter your site. Increasing the number of inbound links makes for a larger and more consistent flow of traffic to your website. But linking is not simply a numbers game. Just compiling numerous inbound links for the sake of linking won’t always do much for your web site rankings or for driving the right type of traffic to your website. You need targeted links from the right places to derive maximum benefit for your specific business.

Outbound links also serve a number of important functions: They provide your visitors with information and resources they can use, demonstrate your knowledge and expertise within your particular industry, give them reasons to keep coming back to your site, and help you establish mutually beneficial relationships with other relevant domains. And, in order to maximize the potential of both inbound and outbound links, you need to publish compelling and effective content that appeals to your current demographic, attracts new visitors, and encourages other content providers to link back to you.

Always Practice Good Linking

It’s important to link responsibly and professionally. This means linking only to those sites with related information within your industry or business. Doing so will quickly establish your credibility and online presence. Benchmark can help you institute these and other safe and productive linking strategies that will soon have relevant sites linking up with you.

• Avoid Link Farms — These are comprised of sites that link to other domains solely to increase their link popularity score. Such sites rarely provide useful content to your visitors. Instead, they may be directed to totally unrelated sites (including X-rated sites). This practice is also known as link stuffing. If your site is affiliated with a link farm, Google might remove your site from its index, which will directly affect your business.
• Don’t use automated link generators — Such programs are rarely effective at generating effective links. You’re much better off contacting another site’s webmaster directly and describing the mutually beneficial reasons for linking to your website.
• Prioritize quality over quantity — Search engines place greater emphasis on the relevance and quality of inbound and outbound links than their number. In other words, it’s better to have 100 good solid inbound links than 1,000 mediocre links.

By letting Benchmark Information Technology design and implement a comprehensive linking strategy custom-tailored to your business, your website ranking and visitor traffic will increase with rapid and rewarding results.
