Also, don't only join sites that are related to your website; you don't know who will be needing your services or when they'll need it.
Build a small, or even a bunch of small internet directory sites on various topics but work out a way to put a small paragraph or two along with a link to your main site. Google and other search engines love this and will pick up on it, especially if the index site spans into individual topic pages.
Join various internet portals where they allow you space for your profile and include a few words and links to your site. A few of the search engines spider Yahoo, for instance, to pick up on these links.
Write or syndicate short articles on various topics to feed the ever hungry search spiders. They love text and will go into a frenzy when they find it on your website.
Along the same lines of web based forums, find a few good Usenet topics to check in to every day. One thing I've found with this is that there are a few sites that index and post to the web various news group postings. Google of course already indexes Usenet but because these other websites copy news group articles to the web also it becomes a double whammy when they copy your postings with your links.
Find a good text-link exchange program to join. There are a few out there, just do a search.
I guess the idea is to scatter your links across the internet in such a manner as to allow people and search applications to find you. |
