If your just starting out with your own website, having a links page can definitely have it's advantages.

How can having a links page drive Targeted visitors to your website?

When you swap links with others, make sure they are targeted towards your market. Swapping links is good for your business. This way your offering other content related to yours, and this will keep
people coming back.

When you swap with other websites related to yours, your link is also going on their website targeted towards your market. Swapping with other webmasters gives you the opportunity to get to know other people as well.

Have you heard before that the more websites that link back to you is good for the search engines when they are indexing your website?

Yes, it's true. If you have your own host, you can see that in your stats. It gives you information on how many other websites your website is linked
from. The more links pointing towards your website, the better placement the search engines will give you.

Having a links page brings you Free traffic. What better way to bring free targeted traffic to your website then your own links page? We can use all of the free traffic we can get and having your own links page will do just that for you.


Some might think linking to others related to their content is more like competition. But would you rather link to websites that aren't related to your content? Of course not, that's defeating the whole purpose
of linking to each other.

You want Targeted traffic not someone looking for gardening on a marketing website, right?

Next you should go surfing for websites related to yours, email the webmaster and ask them if they would like to trade links with you. You add their link to your links page, and they'll add your link to their links page.

That's it. See how easy that was.:)

Happy Linking!

All the Best,
Audra
