What a Tangled Web We Weave..........

The world wide web or www is a wonderful, inspiring, endless,
fantastic place. They do call it a web for a reason - there are
hundreds of thousands of websites all linked together out there.
You want to be sure and get yours linked to plenty of those sites
for a better position in the web.
When you are getting your link exchange campaign ready, keep these
tips in mind:
- Link to sites that are rich in content.
- Choose sites that are complimentary to yours, example: if you
have a site that sells pet supplies, link to sites that give info
on how to care for pets, or where to get pets, etc.
- Make sure your link text contains targeted keywords.
- Stay away from link farms, which are sites that just have links
of all kinds, good or bad, relevant or not.
- You also want your site to be rich in content, so more sites
will link to you.
- Set up a main/category page for your links directory and then
have each category have it s own page. You don't want just a jumbled
mess of links.
- Do not call you links page, links - call it a resource directory
or something similar.
- You could set up an ezine directory similar to your resource
directory for even more web connections.
- When you find a site you like, email the webmaster, using their
name and tell them why you like their site. Give them your url
so they can take a look at your site. Introduce yourself ask them
to consider your site for an exchange. You resource exchange request
would look something like this:
Hello (webmaster's name),
I have just visited your site and was very impressed with the content
and design. I would like to discuss the possibility of a link exchange
with you.
My name is Terri Seymour and I own two sites:
My Own Ezine at http://www.myownezine.com - a business resource
center and Seymour Products at http://www.seymourproducts.com -
a home, family, and business resource site.
I would be interested in exchanging links with both
sites. Take a moment to visit my sites and let me know
what you think. I will be looking forward to your
reply. Thank you for your time.
Warm Regards,
Terri Seymour

or in a email folder or where ever you prefer, so you can just open
it up and make any changes and send.
I had a link exchange directory earlier on MOE and then decided
to remove it (big mistake) because I was adding a paid home business
directory. Well, shortly thereafter, I noticed a drop in my traffic
and in my sales. I am now building a bigger and better Resource
Directory on MOE and on my new site as well.
So, let's get going on getting a good spot in this tangled web
of sites. Good luck in your linking campaign!
