Building Links Within Your Website

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

Building links is often neglected but is important for your siteWhenever you visit any website about internet marketing, the one thing you are bound to read about is links. The more of them you can create between your own site and other related ones the better.But if you do this you might well be neglecting one area that it’s vital you get a good result in, and that’s building links within your website.

Search Engine Spiders

This is important because it makes it easier for the search engine spiders to find their way around your website. It’s your way of saying, ‘Hey look! My site has twenty pages (or however many it has) and here they all are!’ If you don’t give this message out by connecting all your pages together internally, there is a real chance that the spiders won’t see all your pages and only catalog those pages it finds.

Now this might not seem like a big deal, but think about it in more depth for a moment. Let’s say you have created a really excellent page on some aspect of internet marketing (assuming that’s the subject of your website) and you have filled it with properly researched and keyword information, as well as offering Google ads and other adverts for referral schemes and affiliated programs that you have a personal interest in.

Internal Links Make A Difference

If you don’t make it easy for the search engine spiders can’t find that page when they crawl your site, because you haven’t provided links to it from other pages, then there is a real possibility that the page won’t show up in search results whenever anyone looks up anything to do with internet marketing.

That’s how important internal link building is when you create new pages or develop the internal structure of your website. So make it a priority to get those links in place and watch the results.

How Is Your Search Engine Ranking?

Monday, May 26th, 2008

This can be something of an obsession with internet marketers of all shapes and sizes. It’s easy to understand why, because the search engine ranking of your site will strongly influence how well you do in the results whenever someone looks up a keyword or phrase which links to your website.While it is important to keep an eye on it to see how well your site is performing, it shouldn’t turn into something you end up checking twice a day every day. Your search engine ranking changes over time (hopefully for the better) and it does so as a result of what you do to change and develop your site – not as a result of you watching it like you would watch a plant that is starting to grow.

It’s good to develop routines when you start any new internet business, as routines help you to develop good habits and ensure that nothing important gets missed as part of your day to day progress. You can check various parts of your business and see how they are doing, and where some extra effort is required you can then look into how best to do that.

Keywords and finding your site

As you develop your business and learn more about keywords and how to make sure that people (and the robots and spiders that Google, Yahoo and others use) find your site, you should find that your website naturally starts to perform better. It takes time for any website to start figuring in the search engine rankings at all, let alone to perform well. No website gets to the coveted number one spot overnight, so be sure you don’t ask for too much when it comes to monitoring the progress of your site.

They say the best things in life are worth waiting for, and I think a higher search engine ranking definitely falls into that category.
