Linking to The Scotland Golf Breaks Site..

Please read this very carefully because you will get a much better quality link using this simple system.

As most people now realise linking to other sites that have similar content is one of the best ways to increase search engine ranking and PR rating. Because everyone is involved in trying to get more inbound links to their site I have heard that some of the bigger search engines are now getting smart to all the reciprocal link tricks we use. 

Without going into detail the big search engines are paying less importance to reciprocal links. They do of course still pay attention to "inbound links". 

The reason for that is because an "inbound link" or "one way link" is viewed differently ie the web site owner has probably linked to the other site because it carries educational information that compliments the content on his own site.

WEB DESIGN & SITE PROMOTION

If anyone needs help out there with 

  • Professional Web Design (where you can update your own pages), 
  • Guaranteed Search Engine Placement 
  • High Quality Graphic Design. 

We can do all that too. Find out more on our  Web Design Site.

 Of course most site owners don't really want to give away links unless they get something back for it. (I guess the only reason we make all those reciprocal links is because we think we get something out of it in terms of search engine rankings. Half the links on sites would disappear tomorrow if we did not.)

With this is mind we developed a system where you can get a better quality link back to your site. 

Search engines just love content. If you write a little keyword friendly review about your site then the search engines just love to spider it. Instead of a two line "link" they jump on your article and put much more weight on it.

We have started a "blog" on this site. You can see it here. We also have a feed from the blog that updates a page on this site here.

What happens is that the search engines spider this site regularly. It comes along and finds the links on the page where the feed is and follows those links. That page where the feed is on changes all the time as articles are added to the blog. So search engine spiders just love it because it has ever changing content and they come back regularly

Once the spider follows the link to the main blog it finds other links there. However these articles on the blog have a permanent address. So search engine spiders finds the article and permanently indexes it.

Most likely, if you write your article with your main keyword in mind you will end up with a complete entry for your article in many of the search engines.

For example on this blog there is a short review for "Carrbridge Golf Club" I recently did a search for "Carrbridge Golf Club" at yahoo.com. The article from this site came up at about position 20. I did the same search at MSN.co.uk and the article came up at position 5.

So if you would like a link that is perceived by the search engines as very valuable we encourage you to write a short article about your site. Providing your content is golf related we will include it on the blog.

We do still require a reciprocal link - that is only fair. However, by doing it this way we would hope that your link/article would carry much more weight and the search engines won't view it as a reciprocal link so much.

There's more too..

Our blog has XML and RSS  feeds available for people that use newsreaders to follow blogs. When people subscribe to a blog feed then their newsreader updates all the recent acticles which could even be more exposure for you. You can read more about this here.

Feel free to contact us anytime if you would like to submit some content to the blog. Probably about 200 words would be fine. You could even submit a small picture if you want.

Hopefully this will give you much more exposure.
