Hello, I have a domain in belgium .be so i want to rank high in google.be. If i'm having many link exchanges with domains from other countries will this help me to have a better rank in belgium. Or is it only useful to exchange links with .be domains ? Cheers, Kris
As a basic view, the more similar, related, strong links to your website you get, the better. So think of it like this - If you get a link from an established website in the same niche, from the same Country and in the same language as yours, the link value is excellent. If you take one of the bold factors out of the equation, the link value would still be excellent, but it has decreased a little. Take two of them factors out, and the value decreases slightly again. Take three out - you can see the picture. Don't reject a link proposal just because it's unrelated. All links, regardless of PageRank, niche, language, etc, (assuming they're not illegal) are valuable. An unrelated link may not help your position in the SERP's greatly, but it's generally better to have the link than not to. Bear in mind this is my view - there are other people who will disagree and belive that only related links are beneficial and any other link will have a detrimental affect.
You can use this command site:*.be Keywords typeoflink to get one way link from related site For example site:*.be Online Marketing forums
I read somewhere that Google seems to place a higher value on links from related sites, but that this is less so for yahoo and msn. In any case, I have sites that rank well in Google for moderately competitive keywords despite the majority of incoming links being from unrelated sites. So I agree that incoming links have value even if they are not from related sites.
Besides getting backlinks from .be domains, it is advisable to host your site in Belgium too - if you want to rank higher in google.be
try to exchange links with local and with regions websites contain ur country data and language , it will help u a lot .
...get BL that is related to your site from locate sites and regions sites, and your .be site will be rank well. Good luck
