Link Building Campaigns
Inbound links now play a major role in getting your website to the top of the search engines. It's no longer enough just to concentrate on onpage search engine optimisation. Ideally one way links from quality sites are what you should be aiming at. Linking campaigns aren't just about getting as many links as you can, it's important to get links from quality sites and also to retain those links.
There are several ways to get links:
- Link Exchanges
- Directory Submissions
- Articles Submissions
- Social Media
- Blogging
Which of the above you use depends upon the nature of your business and your exact requirements.
At GMB Web Designs we tend to concentrate on the following:
Link Exchanges
GMB Web Designs can undertake a reciprocal link building campaign for you in order to allow you to get on with running your business. Quality websites, who may have an interest in trading links with you, are identified and then approached with a request to exchange links. Any links set up would also have to be periodically checked to ensure that the reciprocal part had not been removed.
Link building really is a lengthy ongoing process and due to the very nature of ensuring that links are maintained you would consequently be billed on a monthly basis rather than up front.
Prices for this service start from just £29.50 per month.
Directory Submissions
Directories can be a good source of one way links. It is important however to find those directories that have a good page rank and are a quality site.
It is also necessary to not submit your site to too many directories at once as Google may interpret the sudden rise in links as a form of spamming which would end up with your site being penalised. Building directory submissions should therefore be approached as an ongoing gradual process in order to get the best results.
I will submit your website to the directories at the rate of 20 per month however should you want submittal to more it can be arranged for a higher fee. This might seem a low figure compared to the majority of directory submission website you might already have looked at. It is important to rank the quality of a directory website not just by the Google page rank but by a lot of other factors. Some directories have even attained their high google pr by purchasing expired domain names or even hijacking them. These sort of sites can have a detrimental effect on your ranking (any page rank benefits you get from them might be wiped out at a later date). If you submit to 100 directory sites a month you are sure to pick some of these directories as you do not spend the required amount of time researching them.
I believe that slow and steady is a much better formula to use to get sustained high search results. Ensuring the quality of links is vital. Take a look at Google and you will see that some PR3 sites feature higher than PR5 sites in their generic results.
