SEO BOOK Where to Get Links: • Directories may list your site after you submit it.
• You can exchange links with similar web sites.
• Writing articles about your topic and placing them on other websites can give you inbound links via the article signature.
• Writing press releases can give you inbound links.
• People interested in your site may eventually link to you without you asking.
• You can participate in forums which provide signature links.
• A somewhat recent move which has been exploited is posting comments directed toward your website in weblogs.
How often do Search Engines Crawl.
Search engines constantly crawl the web. Pages that frequently update with strong link popularity may get crawled many times each day. Pages that do not change that often and / or have little link popularity may get crawled only once or twice a month. Since search engines are constantly adding content to their index they are in a constant state of flux.
How Search Engines Evaluate Links: In the eyes of a search engine, you usually can not control who links to you, but you can control who you link to. In most cases if bad sites link to you it does not hurt you. If you link back, it does . So in essence it usually does not hurt you to get inbound links from anywhere. You should be rather selective with who you are willing to link out to though.
Blogs and Weblog Comment Spam: I recommend finding a weblog with posts about a recent news item you are interested in and posting a comment linking to your site with your real name in it.
The whole point of weblogs is community discussion, so it is not spam to add something useful and link to your web site from it.
What people talk about when they say comment spam is when people post crap like "nice site" with "BUY VIAGRA" in the link. Already software has been made to slow the effectiveness of this technique.
Some weblogs have inline comments (or comments which appear on the same page as the original post). Posting comments on Movable type weblogs can get your website indexed in no time so long as the links are static links. Static links are links that do not go through redirects.
