Way's to get Links to your Website.

In the last post, I explained in detail, how important links to your website are in building your page rank, and then ultimately building your ranking in Search Engines for relevant searches.

You maybe wondering how you could be proactive in building more links to your website. I have a really good idea, that you could take advantage of right now.

In most blog's just like this, you have the chance to comment on the post, and many blog owner's will allow your comments to have a link back to your website.

You may think, wow, this is cool, I can go make a heap of no brain comments and get heaps of links, unfortunately, that has already been done, and most blog owners will edit out these waste of time comments.

But if you read this blog, or any other blog, and have an intelligent question, or want to give constructive criticism, or just have a well thought out comment, or want to ask for clarifaction on any subject, as long as the comment is worthwhile, the blog owner will often allow it to show, along with a link to your website.

As I have mentioned before in this post making a comment on a blog just for the sake of a link to your site has been done to death, so many blog owners, will put no follow attributes on comment links, but still, it's worth making a good comment on a blog, cause other people reading the blog will read your comment, and often have a look at your website.

In general any link you have to your website, from a blog, or forum, (which are both free links) are worth having, and even if they don't build your page rank, people do click on them, and do visit your website.

With the way of the internet, even though the person that clicked on the link say from this blog, may never become a client or customer, you just never know who their friends are, and who they may send to your site or they may even one day become a customer.

The owner of this blog, and the whole Rainbow Tourism International Corporation, is a prime example of this. I first wrote to Mark almost 7 years ago, I think telling him about a broken link, we exchanged a few emails, and then every year or so, I would write and ask how things were going, then out of the blue just over 2 months ago, Mark contacted us about rebuilding his website. (I hope you don't mind me telling that story Mark)

If hints like this interest you, you might like to take a look at a part of our main website called Hobit's Hints, where hobit the hedgehog and I explain a lot of things about SEO, computer and websites in general. There are some really good articles there, most of them, I will write about here in a shorten form.

It is funny how timing wise it took seven years before we got to the point of working through this site.
