The Pace Of Adding New Links To Websites
Links as you know are essential when it comes to have some good rankings in the search engines on the web and they are actually some votes that websites give to each other and this way, the search engines can realize how important a certain website is. The links are in fact regarded as the main elements playing important roles in making many websites successful on the web because only through having proper and powerful links, a website can be found in the online world.
But is the matter just this simple about the links on the web? In other words, if links are so powerful for websites rankings online, should we spend some hours everyday, adding as many links to our websites, hoping to have excellent rankings in the major search engines? As a matter of fact, although links are very important in adding to the values of websites rankings, but there are certain steps and complex systems when it comes to counting and evaluating them in order to give bonuses to the websites the links point at.
You know, if the story was just about the number of the links, you could find websites adding thousands of links to their homepages overnight wishing to stand at the top search engines placements forever but as mentioned earlier, the story is not that simple to figure out. Links are very important for ensuring your websites are to be found among the other competitors in the search engines but have you ever thought of the pace of adding new links to your websites?
If you talk to the web professionals, the ones who have been working on optimizing websites either for themselves or their clients for several years, you can see that in nearly all the cases, they recommend not adding just too many new links to a website in a short period of time. Now, you might wonder how there would be the possibility of problems should you add many links too quickly, right? Please note that although links are good, but having them in an artificial manner, will prove to be having the opposite effect.
This is especially true if you are going to make a newly built website popular by establishing so many one way links to that very quickly. The search engines are now very smart in calculating whether some links have been added naturally or not and therefore, paying attention to the pace and the speed of creating and pointing new inbound links to your web resources is very important.
Please note that we are not talking about the number of links to be added to a website but of the pace in the way they are being established. For instance, while for one of your online projects, even 5 good links might be enough to pushing your sites rankings to the top of the search engines listings, in another online project, you might be needing hundreds of new links in order to be found, but in both cases, it is important that the links be added gradually and not hurriedly.
You can continue building links for your websites in order to establish their current good rankings in the major search engines and in fact, the majority of the successful web companies and firms too are practicing this practice of adding to the pack of their websites links but it is highly recommended, following a secured method of establishing new links in a steady course of time and one thing to always remember is that no site can be built and promoted on the web overnight.
Search engines like to see new links being added to the websites indexed in their listings in a gradual and steady pace and not instantly, as some link packages might promise on some websites. Such link building programs are not helpful and in many cases, as the experience has shown, they can even be bad to the rankings of the websites in the main search engines such as Google, Yahoo and MSN as the three of the engines have more or less similar algorithms.

Begin Your Publishing Empire
Begin Your Publishing Empire
If you create RSS feeds you can start a publishing empire – just look at the rss feeds coming from the big media companies like the New York Times and others. Every hour they have people in-putting more news items – news, politics, feature articles, gossip and entertainment news – you could put anything in your feed?
You can have many feeds for all sorts of topics, just think of the possibilities for driving endless traffic to various pages of your web site where readers can access more information or a salespage, click on an advert like Adsense or some other product to buy – or to give their email address to sign-up for an ecourse or your email newsletter.
The possibilities for instant publishing via RSS feeds is endless, never before has it been so easy to publish anything, it has always been in the hands of the media giants – but no more – they don’t have a monopoly on the internet. The media giants are now down to your level – you are equal to them on the internet – they may well have a large following but, you can also have a large enough following for the information you put out in your RSS feed given time.
Your RSS feeds do not have to be international in nature looking for a worldwide audience – they can be localized for your town or city with local news, local politics, entertainment, sport, news, local gossip, travel – monetizing your feed by writing an article for a local business, and driving traffic to that page, you can charge good advertising dollars, with local businesses lining up for an ‘item’ spot in your feed. How many businesses could you take advertising dollars off in a week? How many feeds can you put out in a week? The possibilities are explosive in nature – yet so many web site owners struggle to gain any money at all from their offerings online – it’s a hard slog! If only they would keep up with technology – just like the media giants do.
Web 2.0 technology is here – yet I hear “What’s that anyway?” from all over the forums and blogs from people who have not caught up with it to realize the possibilities – like putting images, photo’s and even slideshows and video in RSS feeds, together with different fonts – instead of plain boring ‘courier’ – together with colored text and colored backgrounds, making the feeds more attractive to the readers – after all, a picture paints a thousand words – and certainly helps to get readers interested in your offer. See my website for “RSS Traffic Attack” my new ebook explaining it all in great detail.
Web site owners can be too bogged down in routine by rote – doing the same things day-in and day out, they need to step back and look around them at other possible ways of promotion – RSS feeds are free promotion and do drive traffic endlessly.
The technology is here – just use it.
