    Default SEO Using Free Link Exchanges

    Free link exchange networks are popping up all over the place. What was once a way to market your website using the link space on others website is now a SEO tool. Because some search engines such as Google have implemented an algorithm to base a websites worth on the number of inbound and outbound links, links to your page are a must. But how are these links measured?


    Free Link Exchanges
    Free link exchanges can help you in many ways, including adding more back links to your website, however they can also have a reverse effect. If your page is about boats and your links are about lemon law attorneys, then the link will not help you much. In all actuality it may hurt your SEO project. Because search engines may consider this as a spammy link and may hurt your ranking.


    Reciprocal Links
    Having reciprocal links should help you as long as the page linking to your website is on the same theme as the one that your website is about. For instance, If you had only a few links that link to your website that are on the same theme as your website. It would be much better than having hundreds linking in that are totally different than the theme of your website.


    Getting Links
    To get your website noticed, you’ll need to get some links. Although this may not be an easy task, especially if your website is relatively new. It can be much easier than you think, if you take the correct approach. Simply contact webmasters of sites you’re interested in and on the same theme as your website. Usually most will turn you down, but if your website is useful and informative, some will respond and grant you a reciprocal link.


    Returning the Favor
    Some webmasters may link to you and all will be good. The inbound link pagerank may be higher than yours. If so, return the favor to a new website that is trying to get into your niche, if their site is worthy of a link from your site, give it to them. Of course this is totally up to you who you want your site to link to. I hope this article has given a better insight on inbound links. Of course as with any SEO article, without knowing the exact algorithm used to determine search results, it is impossible to be 100% sure of anything. However based on past experiences and daily experiences in SEO, this article provides a wealth of information.

    Link exchanges have advantages and disadvantages from the point of view of those using the World Wide Web for marketing. On the one hand, they have the advantages of bringing in a highly targeted readership, of increasing the "l i n k popularity" of a site with Web search engines, and of being relatively stable methods of h y p e rl i n king. On the other hand, they have the disadvantages of potentially distracting visitors away to other sites before they have fully explored the site that the original link was on.

    Inbound link scores are used by the search engines as a key factor when ranking a webpage. Quality and quantity of Inbound links play a key role in the ranking of a page in the search engine results.
    Link Exchanges is the procedure by which one site agrees to link to another site in return for a link back from that site.

    There are so many free links out there that only reason I'd pay for links is because the site is high PR and will give me relevant traffic at would be cheaper than adverting with Adwords on a CPC basis!

    Link exchange is a great way for website's promotion, but from Google point of view - it's a black SEO
