In the quest for internet immortality with a top 10 Google Ranking for the top keywords for your site, many things must be accomplished. One of those many things is to get as many high quality and relevant in-coming links to your site as possible. Now this can be done in a number of ways. It can be done through joining link exchange services, personally contacting other sites to trade links, finding sites with an automated link trading system built in, or even paying for your links to be placed on popular sites. Now these can all work, but there is one very under-utilized method that anyone can use.
http://www.alexa.com
For those who don't know, alexa is THE website for traffic rankings and more for all websites online. If you would like to find out how popular a certain website is, just go to Alexa and type in the url. But alexa even goes beyond that. And this is where you can make alexa spy on the competition for you. First what you want to do is make a few searches for the top keywords in your market, and note the top websites that come up.
Now head on over to alexa and enter the url to see how well the website ranks in Alexa. Scroll down the page and find where it says "Other Sites that Link to this site:". This is where you will find the number of websites that are linking to the site you entered. Now just click on the number and it will show you each one of these sites that is linking to the site.
So now you have this list of potential sites to trade or submit your website link with. This is a huge way to search for potential linking partners, and is very simple. I urge you to give it a try. Bookmark my blog for more practical and useful marketing tips to come.
Yours in Success,
