Link
Building Popularity
Following a link is one of
the most popular ways for
people to find new sites.
If a site or a writer that
you respect gives a link to
further resources, then because
of that respect you're likely
to follow it. Therefore, the
more inbound links you have
to your site, the greater
the opportunities for people
to find your valuable content.
Search engines give sites
with good inbound and outbound
links a higher ranking. The
logic goes that if you provide
outbound links to other material
you are providing a valuable
service: and, if other sites
link to you then you must
have content of value. By
providing links to other material
you don't have to re-invent
the wheel and create it yourself.
In writing this report, we
provide lots of links to additional
material. We see this as a
valuable service to our readers
and it also makes good use
of the material we collected
in researching and developing
the report. Having a linking
strategy forces you to ask
the fundamental question,
"Why would anyone want
to link to you?" The
answer of course is that you
provide something of value:
you need to be clear about
what that value is. Inbound
links help to build trust.
If people see that a popular
or respected site links to
you, then their level of trust
in what you say and what you
offer is likely to be higher.
Perhaps most importantly,
you become part of a community.
In every field of activity
on the web there will be a
number of key sources. Linking
to them and providing valuable
content that they can link
to will make you a part of
a powerful virtual network.
