One Way Vs Link Exchange which is better ?

Hi Experts,

I have 4 websites and i want to link them all together which the best approach to me.

example sites:
Website 1 - A
Website 2 - B
Website 3 - C
Website 4 - D

Approaches:
1) Exchanging Links (A to B and B to A).
2) One Way Linking ( A to B only).
3) Circular:
i) 3 Points ( A to B and B to C and C to A).
ii) 4 Points ( A to B and B to C and C to D and D to A).
4) Multi Level Hierarchical (A to B and B to C and B to D).

I welcome your comments and suggestions, thanks

Regards
Ish

 

i'll go with ii but thats just a guess

 

One way link is much better for sure, but reciprocal link still works. Both of them are good if you don't get too hasty for each month. If you get tons of one-way links for each month then your site may be penalty by SE for sure in looks of spammy.

 

I understand "penalty by SE", links amount should be optimum.

but i don't think through "One Way" linking i can get maximum benefits from my sites ... it's just my opinion !!!

 

As all of them are yours,I'd put A,B,C on D.(And B,C,D on A,ect.)

 

Hey if they all are in different C class IP range then its beneficial, then you can do any way.

 

I would exchange all links toghether like
A -> B + C +D
B -> A + C +D
etc,etc

 

Link them in anyway ...
because you haven't lot of options

 

linking them all together surly considered as "Link Exchange" and it's not better as compared to "One Way Linking" as experts said.

In fact I really think circular linking is better in all ... just my opinion !!!

 

One way is always better, you get 2 main benefits having this type of links, first, no fear of you linking to bad sites, coz if any bad site points links to you doesnt make any difference but if your site points links to a bad site, then it could be SE nightmare for you.

It depends on your priority . If you weigh them equal then have a exchange program , with each one linked to rest three.

 

I agree, if you have a priority then this should be the one all of the sites are pointing to (using various methods). Links from external sites will also play a major role in SERPs and popularity.

 

I think you should link all of them or you can link in this way

a->b
b->c
c->d
d->a

 

that's new thing i learned about Optimization. this your personal opinion or it's a FACT ?

 

Fact.

Are these site you want to link together relevant to each other?

Personally I would go with one way link exchange and leave it at that but only if the sites that are being linked are relevant.

 

This the best "Linking Architecture" i can think of , and i welcome any suggestions and comments

 

Google will figure that one out so they probably wont give you much weight on the links.

 

I wanna achieve "maximum and one way linking", what will be the best solution to me.

thanks for any replies!!

 

Keep it simple:

A>B
C>D

or

A>B
B>C
C>D

Second option is still off-putting in my eyes but I have used it before.

I would only do this if the sites are relevant to each, if they are off topic then Google wont give much weight either. For example, if Site A is about Apples and Site B is about Carpet the links are simply going to be worthless.
