Sounds like a basic question but here goes. I have been targetting a keyword quite heavily recently, doing a lot of link exchanges and directory submissions. I reckon about 350 new backlinks, about 200 from directories. At the same time though, I pointed more coop weight at this phrase - about 3500 rather than the 700 or so that was pointing at it before. Of course, me being me did both these things over the same time period and I don't know which has had the major effect in the SERPS increases. So, I am after someone with a bit more knowledge of linkbuilding and the coop to give me an idea of which strategy is likely to have had the major impact. Any ideas appreciated!
Throw some link vault vaultage too and submit some articles to article directories and getting a link to that page from each article.
Could you please elaborate and rephrase what you just said, first off please tell me more about article directories and the submission proccess please name a few if possible, also elaborate on the linking.
Hi, not sure how that is related, could you elaborate a bit please I am basically asking whether the coop weight I pointed or the links I built had the stronger effect.
If you turn the coop off you will see what effect it had. Either way, build organic + relevant links. Using Articles + press releases (everyone can copy them freey and they will link back to you), directories, other sites etc etc..
