Building Link Popularity

Search engines are the #1 way people find your website. If you rank high for keywords related to your products or services, you can get a ton of potential customers. The trick, obviously, is figuring out how to get to the top of the search results.

The search engines utilize algorithms that consider numerous factors when ranking sites. One of the most important factors is the number of inbound links. Inbound links are perceived as votes of confidence from others for your site and the search engines reward those with a great deal of apparent authority in a subject, as evidenced by links, with better placement.

Many experts maintain that the sheer quantity of inbound links to your site is incredibly important in getting toward the top. Link popularity is a key to better search engine result placement.

There are many ways to increase the number of inbound links to your site. You can try to organize trades, come up with some sort of great link bait to encourage organic linkings, or you can take an easier, more efficient route. Blogitive will take the information you supply about your site and hand it over to as many bloggers as you can imagine. Those bloggers, in turn, will write about you and will link back to your site. Tons of inbound links in a hurry. Sounds good, huh?
