Exchange Links but Carefully
************Publication Rules************
Webmasters Please Note :You are allowed to Edit the content and the links that are used as examples in this article as long as you include the resource box at the end. To find out how you can profit from linking to our site, see details about our Affiliate Program at http://biz-whiz.com/article307.html
You may obtain the html formatted version of this article from http://biz-whiz.com/print357.html
************Article Begins Here************
There are several factors that determine the benefit that you get when you exchange links with any website. Sometimes you may be giving away some of your hard earned PR (Page Rank) without getting it back in return. While it is debatable if the primary purpose of exchanges is the traffic or the PR gain, a combination of both these motivations is usually present when we exchange links. Apart from the direct traffic, some of the other factors that help to determine the value of an incoming link are
1> The PR and number of links
The higher the PR of the page linking to your site, the better the link in general. The PR that a page has, gets distributed between all the links on that page, so the PR and the number of links together should be used to determine the worth of a link. You can use the PR Checker tool at http://biz-whiz.com/prchecker.html to compare the pr transfer figures, this tool provides an exact value for the estimated pr transfer based on a presumed formula.
2> Direct or Redirected Link
Some sites like to keep track of which link gets how many clicks. Many people believe that this will prevent the PR from flowing; generally this is true but not always. A 302 redirect is a temporary redirect which does not pass the PR, where as a 301 permanent redirect allows the PR to flow. For example, see the google back links at http://www.google.com/search?q=link:http://biz-whiz.com/ebooks/imm/ you will find that all the links are redirected from http://biz-whiz.com/Downloads-req-getit-lid-4.html - This is true for all our ebooks for sale at http://biz-whiz.com/Downloads-req-viewdownload-cid-5.html - So the point I am making is that not all redirected links are bad. The HTTP Headers tool in the IP Toolbox at http://biz-whiz.com/Sections-article17-page1.html can be used to find out if the redirect is a 301 or 302. It is a good idea to allow the partner webmaster the choice of a direct link or a redirected link as done at our link submission page for our links directory at http://biz-whiz.com/Web_Links-req-AddLink.html
3> Meta Tags
The robots meta tags determines if a page will be indexed by the searchengine or not. If the page linking to you has a meta tag like
then there is no use of a link from that page
4> robots.txt exclusions
The robots.txt file
is used to inform the searchengine spider which pages on a site should not be indexed. When you exchange links it is a good practice to look at domainname/robots.txt just to get an idea if the page where your link is going to be placed is within reach of the crawlers - or not.
5> javascript includes or redirects
Some webmasters may place links in an external javascript file! Google has been crawling external .js files and it is not likely that the search engines can be fooled. You should always prefer an on page link to a javascript link.
6> IFRAMES
An IFRAME is a page inside another page. If you encounter a site that is using an IFRAME to link to other sites, you should visit the IFRAME url and check the PR of that page independent of the outer page. You should determine the worth of the link by the PR of the inner page.
7> In Context Links
There is a good amount of speculation and I myself do believe that incontext links are given more importance by the searchengines. So if there was a choice between an in-context link like
The work at home business community ...
and a standalone link like
Work at Home
I would certainly go for the in-context link.
8> Link Title
It is important to have your keywords in your link text. In addition to the link text the link 'title' parameter also is believed to play some role.
Work at Home
is preferable to Work at Home
When you move your mouse over the first link, you will find a small tooltip like description for the link. The title parameter works link the alt for images.
9> Bold
Links in bold are believed to be given more importance,
Work at Home
Is preferable to Work at Home
10> Prominence
Some people have debated that the higher on the page that your link appears, the more important it is considered by the search engines.
Those are the points to remember when you exchange links. When you search in google for link:yoursite.com you will be able to see the important backlinks for your site (or your competitor's). Usually pages with PR4 and above will show in google backlinks and these links are the most valuable link partners from the viewpoint of the search engines.
