Here is an example of my work Getting High PR Back Links Kyle Healey Let’s face it there is a certain way you need to approach high quality sites when asking for a link exchange. This is important all the time, but especially important when you are a new site with a low or 0 PR. PR stands for Google page rank. It represents how popular your page is viewed by Google. When you get back links to your website from high quality websites with a high Page Rank, some of that PR is transferred to your website. The more high PR websites that link to your site the higher your PR likely will be, and in turn, the better off your website. Now we will go over a few tips on how to attain high traffic, high PR back links for free in the very competitive poker industry. 1. This is the most important rule – Have a site worth linking to. Create your poker website with pride, poker affiliating can be the best job in the world, so put your maximum effort into the look and feel of your website. Create unique content, clearly state what your website is about, and have a clean layout where users will find it “friendly†to surf. All of these factors can increase the chance a more authoritative site will link to yours. The first rule is closely linked to the second, something that will automatically get your link request trashed. 2. Never expect a link to a “banner farm†website. If all your poker website includes is a bunch of banners to various online poker rooms forget it. You may get link trades with other banner farms but they are doing you very little good. You need links from respected, high traffic and quality poker websites to increase your own targeted poker traffic and search engine ranking. I guarantee you that 99% of webmasters won’t even get back to you if you are running a banner farm. It goes back to the number one rule “Have a Site Worth Linking too†– a respected webmaster is not going to hurt his/her rankings in the SERP’s by linking to a “bad neighborhood†when you have very little to offer them. 3. Have a clean and clear Resources Page – a) never have more than 40 – 50 back links on one page – the fewer the better. Make it look nice and clean, and clearly describe each website using the anchor text and description they provide. Make the font sizes easily readable and space each entry apart to maintain the clean look. Finally, place a link to the resources page from your homepage in a place that is easy to see. Name it something like “Useful resources†or “Partnersâ€, but never “Links†or “Link Exchangeâ€. After all, you should only be linking to useful quality sites. 4. How to find the best link partners – This is easy. Simply go to Google and type in all of your intended keywords and industry related keywords one by one. Contact the top 20 sites in every listing returned. If they have a contact form especially intended for back link requests use it, otherwise use the approach below. 5. The Approach a) if you can help it, don’t say Hello “webmaster†– if their personal name is somewhere on the site, find it and use it. This is very important as some busy webmasters chuck out every e-mail entitled “Dear webmasterâ€. b) Show them where you have already linked to them. Never write to a website saying you will link to them if they link to you. You will get little to 0 replies like this. Take the initiative and place their web link on a links page like we described earlier in this article. c) Be polite – As obvious as this is, many webmasters do not follow it. Always end your e-mail with something like Sincerely, or Yours Truly followed by your FULL NAME. It helps if you use your real name too, poker affiliates are intelligent people we can smell a fake American name when we see one. d) Make it personal – Compliment something unique about this particular site that “caught your eyeâ€. It will help if it is something you found 2 or 3 pages deep in the website. This will show the webmaster that you have actually took the time to look over the site you are asking for a link exchange and may actually flatter them – both increasing your chance at getting a back link. e) Do it right and Move On – Don’t be afraid to ask every High quality poker site for an exchange – Do it right, move on , and forget about it – You can check back in a month or so and remove any links from your website that didn’t link you back if you want – although if they are good resources for your web users you may want to leave them anyway. Getting link exchanges is a numbers game, and surely the more requests you make, the more positive replies you will receive. Using the above tips, your link request success % is sure to go up. Don’t get discouraged, and always remember how important the links you receive are.
