Everyone knows the importance of getting other sites to link to you and the most common way is for a reciprical link. That is the kind of link that Click Sentrys reciprical tools address. These are great links and should always be sought after. However, there has been much discussion about Google giving less weight to a link that is recip. One of the ways to combat this is "triangle" linking but this can be very time consuming and hard to explain to new website owners. That brings us to another method: There are some other ways to create one way links to your sites, as stated below: Directory Submittion It is a good first step for any website. There are many internat directories. You can submit your website in those. Article Submittion It is the another way that will bring targeted traffic to your website. Its also good for affiliate promotion. there are about thousands of websites where you can post free articles. Blogging You can create a blog of a particular topic and place some links that will take the traffic to your website. Email Signature This is also a good way to bring instant traffic. You can place a small ad on the signature of your email sent. Forum Signature This is also an another good way to attract more targetted traffic. You can place a small ad on the signature. This will be visible on every thread as well as posts made by you.
You just mentioned about EVERY 1980's way to get your site indexed , Hey ...ARE you from wickedfire forums?.........I know they always try to post jokes here and they make fun of dp, Clearly this thread HAD to be a joke..........I hope ......
But it had to be a joke right? Re read the thread title "creative ways for one way links" Come on.......creative?....as shoe got me saying lolcopter
Unfortunately, beunique wasn't that unique in terms of link building. If you are using Creative + link building, both than it has to be something which is not being used by many others and have to be your niche specific. Like if you have a pictures website than u can get links from flicks(there are ways of linking back)..
1. Create templates for Wordpress, Joomla... etc 2. Social networking and bookmarking site. 3. Create a useful eBook.
Give your link to millions of the world's schoolchildren. Let each of them create a little webpage with your link at the bottom. Sit back and enjoy all that lovely linkage.
Kill someone and make sure you have the url of your site on your t-shirt when you get arrested. If you wont do that, at least get the t-shirt... hang out at local festivals with that shirt on, and look for the news van. Hang out behind the reporters while they are on camera. Make a popular webmaster forum that will prompt less popular ones to post joke threads and then link to them. Start an affiliate program, then completely ignore your publishers and the site. This has worked well for AuctionAds.com (see, I just linked to them) Post complete crap about google or some other monster within your niche and then watch all the links pour in as people call you an idiot. Start "the worlds largest human edited directory" and then have automated listed and not enough humans to properly maintain the rest. This will cause a big ruckus in directory circles and will result in hundreds if not thousands of links as people complain. (why else would DMOZ still be a PR8?) Mail t-shirts with your URL on them to people around the country. Hunt those people down and kill them when they wear your shirt. This will put your link as a national headline! ("The DigitalPoint.com Killer Strikes Again!") You really should not kill people, but controversy and turmoil do seem to cause a lot of people to talk about a subject...maybe work on something like that on a smaller scale As I must note, I do not really condone killing, accept maybe for food. One technique that I've found that can sometimes works is to simply ask for them. Most importantly --> Have content worth linking too!
Sadly, in many cases that the only method people are not willing to try. I see links all over the place, and I understand why so many people have to buy them now...their sites suck! If people would actually start putting the end user first maybe there would be less killing in the world today
Blog RSS directories & social bookmarking (make sure "dofollow") are good way to get one way backlinks.
Have sex with paris hilton get it on tape, put preview on your site, I guarantee you will have zillions of links in minutes.
Social bookmarking sites is a good way to get great one way link since most social bookmarking sites have good PR.
Creative method: Steal flags off flagpoles outside important buildings and schools, and replace them with flags carrying your URL. It will get on the news.
