"How exactly does
it work?" |
| |
Our service is to seek out
sites in your market niche online that are highly relevant
to your target audience and have excellent link potential,
then contact and request links from each of them individually.
This is a time-consuming process which must be done by
hand, one at a time.
Carefully targeted link requests will be made on your
behalf, and a page of potential link partners will be
generated for easy uploading and integration with your
Web site.
There are no shortcuts, and no automated software
is used.
The goal is to establish a professional and mutually beneficial
relationship on your behalf with the right link partners
for your business.
Here's why this is so important to your Web business today:
If you're not linked online to your target audience, they
cannot know you are there and will not find you. If you
have no traffic, you will have no sales.
Additionally, 19
of the top search engines and directories today
use link popularity from within your niche market to determine
your positioning. In other words, if there are no targeted
links to your site, your search engine rankings will suffer
dramatically.
To announce your site, get you properly linked within
your niche market, bring you pre-qualified site visitors
that are prone to buy what you offer, and improve your
placement with the major search engines and directories,
here's what we do:
o Our service
begins when we look through your Web site in detail.
Then, based on your site content, keywords and intended
audience, we seek out and find key link partners in
your niche market.
o The initial
link partner identification process will take approximately
one month, during which time we look for the best
link partners for your Web business on the major search
engines and directories. Because most of our clients
seek to improve their Google positioning, this is
where we concentrate our energies. We also look through
vertical industry portal sites (vortals), discussion
lists, edited Web guides, ezines, Webzines, eDigests
and print yellow page Web directories.
o During this
period we go through each potential link partner site
individually, measuring their market relevance by
site content, search engine positioning and traffic.
Our selection criteria includes:
I. Web sites that are a match for your site content
and objectives
II. Web sites that are not 'link farms'
III. Web sites that actively seek site submissions
IV. Web sites that represent a strong chance for
inclusion
o To determine
link potential we explore each site to see if they
currently provide you with networking potential, including
outgoing links to other sites in the your niche market.
If they do, they will be made aware of your Web business
via contact through personal email or an online form
with a link request.
o We then develop
an HTML page listing each of these key sites. This
page will be delivered to you for easy uploading and
seamless integration with your Web site. As soon as
this page is posted and we are notified of the exact
link page URL, we complete the initial contact process
by notifying each potential link partner individually
about your site. In a personal email we detail exactly
why they should reciprocate with a link from their
site to your site.
Please note:
o Not all sites
will link back to a site seeking link popularity,
and many will not link back immediately. Expect to
allow the same time frame as an SEO campaign after
posting the links for full results from your campaign
to manifest and all incoming links to be established.
Our job includes continued follow-up, without additional
charge to you, on this ongoing process; additions
of new link partners to your links list and removal
of non-linking sites.
o We do require
the same time frame as an SEO campaign from the day
you post the link page on your site and notify us
for each and every link to appear. For larger campaigns
of 100 or more targeted links, this can take even
longer. We will continue to pursue more link partners
on your behalf to meet the Linkagexpress guarantee
- at no additional cost to you, of course. This gives
us the requisite time needed to allow all links to
manifest for your campaign, keep the links list updated,
contact new potential link partners, remove the 'deadwood'
and so forth so that we can bring everything to a
successful and powerful conclusion.
This is the most targeted, professional way to announce
your Web business and build awareness for your site
within your niche industry and marketplace online.
We GUARANTEE a specific number of carefully targeted
link partners for your Web business, but please note:
Our GUARANTEE is for the minimum number we have
contracted to deliver for your campaign. Because we
actually pursue far more link partners than the minimum
guaranteed number you have asked us to pursue, our
process has the strong potential to generate a much
higher number of targeted link partners for your site.
Our experience demonstrates a high percentage of carefully
targeted sites in a link popularity campaign will be
glad to link to you if you offer content of value.
This is in their best interest, just as it is in yours.
Please note that over and above the specific number
of GUARANTEED links you receive through your campaign,
the additional number of link partners we generate for
you depends entirely upon the perceived value of your
site for the particular link partners pursued. That's
why it's in your best interest to include content of
value on your site. Content may include:
a. Free "how-to"
articles, reports or newsletters pertinent to your
clients
b. Topical information such as local news or updates
on your particular industry
c. Downloadable software
d. Clips: video, photos, graphics or sound
e. Links to other value-added sites (that's right:
links bring you more links)
In terms of a traffic increase, sites we've worked
with often experience a significant increase in traffic.
As you'll read in the testimonials on the left of this
page, in some cases this has been as much as a 300%
traffic increase. This increase will continue building
over the months to come.
Traffic will come from sites linking to you directly,
and will also come 'indirectly' (but significantly)
from the search engines and directories as your positioning
improves.
The effect on your search engine positioning can take
up to 2 months (or longer, depending on the particular
search engine). Please note: the search
engines must find your incoming links on their own as
they spider the sites linking back to you. These search
engines will also continue to consider other key elements
in the ranking of your site for a given search phrase,
including your site content as well as the use and placement
of your keywords.
Our service is an important step in a long-term, committed
effort on your part toward effective site promotion
and networking. Simply put, if you are not linked, you're
invisible. No-one will know your Web site is there.
The goal is to establish or add to your network of incoming
links in order to increase the quality and quantity
of your traffic directly AND to improve your 'link popularity',
which is now a key factor in achieving your best possible
positioning on the major search engines and directories.
Our link popularity campaign will give you the foundation
you need to reach your target market on other key sites,
but we strongly encourage you to continue the linking
process we have started, whether on your own or with
additional targeted LinkageXpress campaigns. As the
Internet expands, you need to keep expanding your reach
as well.

"Do you link me to FFAs or 'Link
Farms'?" |

NEVER. We look for individual
niche-specific sites, not software-generated link clearinghouses.

engine rankings, and we avoid them like the plague. That's
why we take the individual, one site at a time approach
- so we can find you the best possible link partners for
your Web business and generate lasting link popularity

"What kind of link popularity
campaigns do you handle?" |
|
We cover the full spectrum.
About 85% of our business is for business-to-business
and consumer sales companies.
The rest of our work involves link popularity and marketing
campaigns for membership organizations.
We are selective in the businesses we serve, and reserve
the right to refuse service to any site we feel has zero
link potential or degrades the Web and Internet.
These include sites we personally consider to be offensive
or negative, non-professional sites hosted on free services,
and 'cloned' affiliate sites. Because we conduct our campaigns
entirely by hand, we are limited in the number of projects
we can take on at any given time, and work on a 'first
come, first served' basis.

|
"How long will it take you to
complete my link popularity campaign?" |
|
We will require up to one
full month to complete the research steps of your campaign
from the date it is scheduled. It will take several months
to get the full benefits from the campaign. During this
period we ask that you remain patient. We will send you
monthly reports detailing our progress.
As mentioned above, we conduct campaigns in the order
they arrive in our offices. If you have an immediate need,
we encourage you to contact
us now to schedule your link popularity campaign right
away.

"Is itimportant to host a reciprocal
link page on my site?" |
|
Yes. Today it's essential.
Most sites expect you to offer a reciprocal link in return,
so start planning for this now. You must link to this
page from a primary page on your site - preferably the
index page, because that's what your link partners most
want. We will generate this links page for you in basic
HTML so you can easily integrate it with your existing
Web site design. This links page empowers you to become
an outstanding portal resource for your industry niche,
with visitors coming back repeatedly to use your links.
There are other benefits you need to know about. For the
search engines, it is extremely important that your site
be heavily networked across the Internet within your subject
matter. Link trades enhance your positioning in the top
search engines which increasingly look for sites with
high 'link popularity'.
If you are worried about losing traffic, please remember
that the value of links is clear for the Web's biggest
sites: AOL.com, CNET, The New York Times, HotWired, Netscape,
Yahoo!. None of them hemorrhage traffic despite pointing
to other sites.
In the words of Submit-It founder Scott Banister, "Yahoo
is a big link to elsewhere, and they're worth $billions.
Links work." [BACK

"Is it necessary
to review the list of link partners in advance?" |
|
No. We work with you closely
before we start your link popularity campaign.
In this way we'll generate the optimal list of potential
link partners for your needs.
We seek link opportunities with the best possible partners
for your Web business. Because we do our preparation
properly in advance, your campaign is guaranteed to generate
links that increase the flow of targeted prospects and
customers to your site.
