SEO and Marketing

1) There is a nice little PR5 (Or not so little) website called Listible. It is basically a web 2.0 directory of various resources arranged in lists. These lists pretty much cover most subjects so I’m sure you can find one or two for your site and even if you don’t you can always start your own. What you do is simply find a related list and add your site to it. Easy as that! You now have a strong, related link on a (hopefully) high PR page. The good thing is that the site is actually quite popular and a good listing can also bring you a bit of traffic. Don’t stop there! Find more lists that relate to your site and plug some more of your links. Even though you should not spam (too much) it does not look like there is much stopping you on Listible.

PS: Some pages can go up to PR7. Its up to you to find them

2) Have you got a web 2.0 site? I assume most webmasters would now days… Well plug it in this web 2.0 list

3) Some of you might know what its like having your story featured on Digg’s front page. Because Digg is such a big site there are a lot of smaller sites (Especially blogs) using its feeds or content found directly on Digg. For example when a good article appears on the front page of Digg it usually gets picked up by hundreds of bloggers. As a result the featured material soon acquires a whole bunch of backlinks from around the net. Instead of targeting Digg itself try and plug your link on recently featured sites. Its could be a funny video or a blog… or even a picture from flickr. In most cases you should be able to drop a quick comment with your link in it. For example this flickr picture on the front page of Digg at the moment. I simply went on flickr and commented on this picture “Im about to blog about this picture on www.exposedseo.com” (I should have used anchor, i know). My comment is visible to a lot of people right now. Over time that flickr picture will get more people linking to it therefore giving me more linking juice.

Right then guys. It seems like i have some sort of writers block because i spent like 2 hours typing up this post. I’m having problem formulating my sentences at the moment. I think i will go to bed and continue with more tips tomorrow.

Update: That little link i posted on flickr brought me over 240 uniques within 18 hours.

Today i have received an interesting email. This guy was telling me that he linked back to me from his website and he would appreciate a link back to one of his newer sites he is trying to kickstart. Fair enough i thought… I clicked on the link he provided. I ended up on this PR5 website. It looked like a genuine website with high Alexa rank, plenty of backlinks and lots of content. After a little search i did indeed find a link back to my website in this PR5 section.

Suddenly something has caught my eye. The actual submission containing some information about one of my websites and the backlink itself has been submitted just over 5 months ago. It all became clear to me. Have you heard about this sneaky way of acquiring backlinks?

Its quite simple. You find a website you want a backlink from. You then do a bit of research and find a bunch of existing backlinks pointing back to that website. You then send an email to that webmaster and pretend that the website with the backlink belongs to you and that it was you who put it there. You then kindly ask him to link back to one of your new projects you need help with. Now you just wait for reply and hope that the webmaster you have contacted is a generous dumbass.
