What are some ways to obtain more links and a higher link popularity score?

06 August 2008

There are several ways to grow your link count which will not only increase your link popularity score, but will also generate more traffic to your site. Recent updates in search engine algorithms have show that reciprocal links do more harm than good and are often tagged with rel="nofollow" which nullifies the link value. This has left many web masters and site owners scratching their heads as to how they can obtain one way links that pass on a value to their site.  One method that has proven popular, though highly dangerous, is link buying. Creative-Etc. does not use nor does it reccomend this method as your link is many times rotated, meaning it is only visible part of the time and is not a permanent link to your site.  Besides the lessened value of the links, Google has also publicly come out against link buying and de-indexed or sandboxed many sites it has found to be participating in link buying campaigns. If you are confused by this, you are not alone, contacting professionals like Creative-Etc. that know which techniques will work and which methods are a waste of time and resources, is the best place to start.
