Backlink power

    I'm just posting this to show some guys the power of the average joe backlink.. a while back i release a free wordpress theme called 'Pinkgirl', on that design it had a link back to my site (www.linksjuice.com) with the anchor 'Pinkgirl' and a link to the theme's sponsor.

    I'm not saying 'pinkgirl' is a competitive phrase atall, and i doubt it gets any searches, but take a look now;

    http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&rlz=1B2GGGL_enGB177&q=pinkgirl&btnG=Search

    My site is #1 on Google for 'pinkgirl' with no keyword related to that phrase on the index.

    Backlinks are powerful, with no backlinks you'll get nowhere...

    If I remember correctly, Yahoo is the one to list backlinks in order of importance, not Google I am afraid.

    I think Jim Boykins mentioned that long time ago in his blog.

    This tool will give you an idea about how many links to raise PR & is it worth to link with particular site that you are planning to exchanging with.

    Wanna talk about power?? If you choose a good keyword for title and put it in a forum post it will come up high on google if the forum is strong. Try "expand your web presence" on google. Then try "small change big result" in google. I'm Bloggeries. I added these very recently.

    Another point that Terry kinda made me think about is how most people myself included always go for the big dog key words. Why not go for the little guys but corner the market? I" sure you'd get alot more traffic and sales if you were 1st page for a term that got searched 50-100X a day compared to one that got searche 20,000 but you were on page 14.
