Link building for your website

A great way to improve your chance of getting people to your website and having a higher ranking in the major search engines is to have a 'quality link score'. That means that, say Google, looks to see how many website(s) link to your website. Going further, Google doesn't really care about links from websites that have a lower quality link score than you.

When it comes to link building, it is ideal to get linked in from websites that have a higher score than you. If your at the top, your doing something right!

A few good practices to get your name and contact information about your company out there, is to register accounts at local business listing websites and/or find out what competitors have listed in.

To do this go to Google.com. Type in, links://www.yourcompetitorswebsite.com then press enter or click search.

These results will show all links that are going to that website. Saying that, now you can use these links to see what local listings they are listed in, so you can do the same.

This is a strategy that all companies should do anyway, even if they don't have a website up yet, because of the fact that you can get your contact information out there...and wait a minute.....its free.
