My Philosophy on Links
Everyone is always going on about links, and how important links are for the success of a webiste. I agree with those people. I think links play a very important part in a website.
You get different “value” of links. A link within a blog post will be more valueble than a link on the side of the blog amongst other links.
Why?
People will much rather click on a link within something you are writing than go looking at all your links on your links page.
Some people sell links. Witch is in some way illegal. The more preferred way to do linking is by doing a link exchange. So if someone approaches you with a link exchange request, you add a link to them from your site, and visa versa. That is probably the most common links you get.
I think Links should be freely given. Not spammy. But given with love.
I really don’t mind if people post links to their site from mine. If I think its dodgy, then I will remove it. But if you, a fellow blogger or website owner want to tell the world about your site. I don’t mind.
I think that with that mindset you open yourself up to more exposure and links to your site. It goes back to the old saying. “What goes around, comes around.”
That in short, is my philosophy on links.
Do you differ in opinion?
