It is no secret. The more links you can obtain, the higher your site will rank in Google, Yahoo, and MSN. Not all website owners, however, are aware of how many ways there are to obtain links.
These ten activities frequently produce excellent results.
1. Submit your website to directories. Some require a fee, but most do not.
2. Submit to classified ad websites. Many are free.
3. Initiate link swaps with other website owners. Seek out those whose sites are on subjects related to yours, but avoid contacting competitors.
4. Do some podcasting.
5. Shoot a couple of brief videos and submit them to appropriate sites. If you do not have a camera, you can rent one.
6. Sign up at at social bookmark and other social websites. It's quick, it's easy, and it can really help you.
7. Utilize press releases. Several services are available to assist you, some at no cost.
8. Start blogging and link from your blog to your website (and vice versa).
9. Write articles and send them to article distribution sites. Include an author's box with a link to your website.
10. Post on blogs and on forums. But, do not spam...post only when you have something of value to say.
Of course, you do not have to engage in all of the activities above. Just pick a few and be persistent; if you do, you will be rewarded.
