Jika kita memiliki PR yang bagus dan backlink yang banyak, maka sangat cocok jika kita ikut program semacam paid reviews. Saya sungguh menyesal tidak menerapkan cara ini sejak dulu. Lebih baik terlambat daripada tidak sama sekali. Karna saya ingin memoneytizekan blog ini ke program paid reviews.

Caranya sangatlah gampang, anda hanya tinggal copy link yang berada di bawah ini dengan syarat anda harus menghapus link pada peringkat 1 dari daftar, lalu pindahkan yang tadinya nomor 2 menjadi nomor 1, nomor 3 menjadi nomor 2, nomor 4 menjadi nomor 3, dst. Kemudian masukan link blog anda sendiri pada urutan paling bawah ( nomor 10). Dan silahkan ajak teman anda untuk mengikuti cara ini serta sebarkan cara ini ke sebanyak-banyaknya teman anda.

2. Lowongan Kerja IT
3. ilmu-kompi
4. alfacroon
5. Trik-Gue
6. Pabrik Info
7. WordPress Paper’s
8. bootingskoBlog
9. Rajwa Info
10. Situs Murah
11. Comot Sana Sini

Keterangan:

Jika anda mampu mengajak lima orang saja untuk mengcopy artikel ini, maka jumlah backlink yang akan didapat adalah:

* Posisi 10, jumlah backlink = 1
* Posisi 9, jumlah backlink = 5
* Posisi 8, jumlah backlink = 25
* Posisi 7, jumlah backlink = 125
* Posisi 6, jumlah backlink = 625
* Posisi 5, jumlah backlink = 3,125

* Posisi 3, jumlah backlink = 78,125

Dan nama dari alamat blog dapat dimasukan kata kunci yang anda inginkan yang juga dapat menarik perhatian untuk segera diklik. Dari sisi SEO anda sudah mendapatkan 1,953,125 backlink dan efek sampingnya jika pengunjung downline mengklik link anda maka anda juga mendapat traffic tambahan.

Saya sarankan anda mencoba cara ini dan silakan copy sebarkan artikel ini ke teman-teman anda. Hilangkan link nomor 1 dan masukan alamat blog anda pada nomor 10. Buktikan sendiri hasilnya setelah itu baru kementar.

Berani Mencoba??? Silahkan Copy – Paste Artikel ini, dan selamat merasakan sensasi nya diBlog Anda….

• bring potential customers to your site when they click on the link

• dramatically improve your search engine rankings

Even though there are software packages on the market that help automate the linking process, use them sparingly, if at all. The only way to succeed in linking strategies is (aside from creating useful content that will encourage inbound links) by manually creating the link

Here are the 10 most important inbound links you must have to your site:

1. Directory Links

Directories are indexes of online sites, typically organized by category. Links back to your site from directories like Yahoo Directory and DMOZ.org are very valuable. DMOZ.org is edited by human editors, and while it’s free, it may take awhile for your site to be listed. Getting listed in Yahoo’s Directory costs $299/year.

2. Press Releases

If you’re writing press releases, make sure they are optimized for keywords that someone would use to find a business like yours and include links back to your site, as well. Once written, you can have your press release distributed through a service like PRWeb.com, which will create links from high traffic news sites back to your site.

3. Article Directories

Writing and distributing articles through high traffic article directories, like EzineArticles. com, is a great way to get valuable inbound links from a high traffic site. By crafting an effective resource box at the close of your article, you can drive traffic back to your site!

4. Social Bookmarking

Similar to web browser bookmarks, social bookmarking sites store individual pages (bookmarks) online and allows users to tag (with keywords), organize, search, and manage bookmarks of web resources as well as share them with others. If you bookmark your own content on these sites (like Digg.com, Reddit.com, Del.icio.us. com), you get a link from the service. By producing content that your readers love and then bookmark to their friends, the link increases in SEO value.

5. Blog Comments

To find blog posts on which to comment, you can use blog-specific search engines like Google Blog Search. Make sure these are blogs read by your target market, not your colleagues. Brand yourself by always using the same name and remember to link back to your site. Always leave a comment that adds to the conversation that’s happening within the comments.

6. Social Media

Now, Google also indexes your Twitter updates and your social networking profiles. Add that to Web 2.0 hubsites like Scribd or HubPage and you’ve got the option of creating many, many inbound links in a very short period of time.

7. Blog/Podcast Syndication

Submitting the RSS feed of your blog and podcast to syndication services will give you a link back to your site. In some cases, each time you publish a new blog post, the post itself will also get a link.

8. Video Syndication

YouTube is one of the most visited sites online, and the number of sites that syndicate videos is growing each day. These sites often allow you to link to your site either in your video’s description or on your profile page, or both.

9. .EDU and .GOV Links

Search engines place a great deal of credibility in government and education web sites, and the links carry a great deal of weight. Frankly, it isn’t easy to get inbound links from these sites.

10. Internal Links

Remember, if you have more than one web site, or a web site and a blog, be sure and link one to the other. You can do this by linking one article to other related articles, or link to categories or archives of information.

Creating a sound inbound linking strategy is a key component of your search engine optimization efforts. Try a few of the strategies listed above and see how your traffic and rankings increase.
