How
link popularity can help your search engine rankings
If you have optimized your web page for high search
engine rankings and it still doesn't get better listings, it is
very likely that your web site has low link popularity.
Link popularity is a very important factor for all major search
engines. If your web site doesn't have good link popularity, it
is very difficult to get good search engine rankings.
Note that link popularity alone is not enough. The content of
your web site is also important so that search engines know what
your web site is about.
A combination of optimized pages and high link popularity will
bring your web site to the top of the search engine results.
What exactly is link popularity?
Link popularity refers to the total number of links
that a search engine has found for your web page. The more web
sites link to your web page, the higher the link popularity of
your page. High link popularity contributes to a high search engine
ranking.
The idea behind the link popularity concept is simple. The more
other web sites link to your web site, the more important your
site must be. Other sites wouldn't link to your site if there
wasn't something interesting on your site or if your web site
didn't contain any special content.
It's nearly impossible to manipulate link popularity. Previous
ranking algorithms that took META keywords or similar factors
into account have been quickly abused to mislead the search engines.
On the other side, it's very difficult to manipulate the number
of links that point to a site.
That's why link popularity is now one of the most important factors
for search engines when they rank a web page.
However, you cannot get high link popularity by submitting your
web site to thousands of FFA (free for all) link pages. Not all
links are considered equal by the search engines. It does matter
who links to you and how they link to you.
How to find good potential link partners
As explained above, it's important who links to
your site. web sites that have a similar topic as your site are
more important than web sites with different topics.
In addition, if you can convince web sites with a similar topic
to link to your site, you'll also get targeted traffic from these
sites.
People who visit your topic partner sites are usually interested
in what you have to offer. They are more likely to come to your
site and to buy something. It's the quality of the traffic that
counts, not the quantity.
Conclusion
Building a good link popularity requires some work
but the results will pay for it. Link popularity is already one
of the most important factor for search engines to rank web sites.
The sooner you start with your linking campaign, the better the
results for your business.
