Think about external and internal linking text to leverage your blog or site as well. What is linking? The internal links are those within your site. Navigation menus within your site are one and links between pages are another.

External links are those to other websites or blogs, who hopefully link back to you and increase your traffic.

So how do you decide who link with. You will have to link to them first. You have to think how and who. You link to them and then ask them to link back to you. You have to look at relevant sites first before concluding which might be the sites to link to and there is no guarantee that they will link back to you.

How do you find the basics of establishing links and exchanges? One site that you might want to have a look at is www.marketleap.com. There are tools and a link popularity checker in there. Investigate other sites like yours. This particular tool shows you the number of inbound links that a site has. The more links you have the more likely people will want to be with you and the more traffic you will get.

Should you be approaching the competition? Absolutely. If you are both open to it. Think of parallel markets as well. Sometimes you have to think out of the box.

Have a look at a sites page rank which is on a scale from 0-10 depending on its importance to Google. When a site with a page rank links to you you get a bit of their ranking. Its not simple maths because this is many layers deep and they are all filtering down. If you can get links from the higher ranked sites then you will get more traffic. Look for the higher ranked site with at least a 1. You will need the Google toolbar http://www.toolbar.google.com for this. Download and install it!

Anyone you link to would have to have a page rank of at least 1 and they would need to have an existing links page. If they don't then there is no point. Also find sites that are open to linking. If you see a phrase that they are willing to exchange links then that's a good start.

You need to look at exchanging links as another tool in your search for more traffic. It gives a network of sites that are linking to you and back. It's also about the network and research.This can gives you market information and you can see what other sites are out there. Looking at this will improve your market knowledge and give you direct traffic. It will give you better search engine rankings and give you search engine traffic as a side effect.

Linking will boost your profile on line. People will start to see you and it gives you content because if you have a lot of links then you can get a lot of quality content.

Take time to work on your links page, add in a bit of content or an image to it. Get a links page that adds content and keywords. Think of this as another way of building a presence and increasing search engine traffic.
