Improving Your Site’s Link Popularity, And Search Engine Ranking November 16, 2006

Have you ever wondered why one web site (maybe yours) is buried deep in the search rankings for a particular keyword, while another site (your competitor’s) is at the top? Both sites may have similar content and even similar metatags, but one is number one and the other is number 131.

The answer to this disparity may lie in a factor known as link popularity. When search engines determine rankings, many things are taken into consideration and one of them is how many sites are linked to your site. Search engines such as Google give much importance to both the quantity and the quality of these incoming links. If many sites are linked to yours, your site is considered to be an important resource in that particular field and that is why the search engines would like to give such a site a high ranking.

There’s no doubt that you can build big traffic with a blog.

It just takes a wee bit more work than it used to.

Not long ago, you could post a picture of your cat on a Friday and get attention. Bloggers still love to link, but as any environment becomes more crowded, people become more discriminating. After all, a link is a form of personal recommendation, and it says something about both ends of the hypertext.

You may work hard on an article or resource that you’re just positive will spread like wildfire, and yet hear nothing but lonely crickets chirping upon release. Not even a measly comment.
