Links make the internet, without a doubt the Internet consist of millions and millions of links. These links form the backbone of the internet and also provide a way for the major search engines to monitor which sites are more important than other ones.
How does this work?
If the main objective of your website/blog is to insure a steady stream of visitors then you are going to have to do some linking.
What are links?
Links are URLs or web addresses like this one www.workconnexions.com That can link a word to a website or the reverse.
How do you get them?
1. A visitor to your website may like what she is reading if they like it enough they may decide to put a link on their website or in a blog post to your website.
2. If you have friends that blog you can ask them to link to your website if they blog in the same topic sphere or consider it to be interesting enough?
3. Another way to generate links it to link to other peoples content they will then be able to see that you have linked and may decide to link back.
What are the best links to have?
The best links to have our from high ranking websites. Google ranks all websites from 1 to 10 with Ten being the highest. The higher the page the more valuable the link is.
Is Commenting on a blog/website Linking?
Yes if you leave a comment on a blog or on a news/web site. What you may have not be aware of is that some sites while allowing commenting, do not allow Google to follow the links. So your comment/link may well have no effect on your site. This is known as no follow. There are a number of applications that can monitor this in your browser.

Over the weekend I was updating some of accounts that I have on certain networking site likes like, propeller, Marktd, WorkConnexions.
I have just taken a look at the stats for the last couple of days and I have had more that 150 percent increase in traffic. The main reason for participating in community is that you can engage a group of readers with similar interests.
But It is important to pick the right community first.
For example if you are into Art and photography than Stumble is a good choice, if you are into business development than try www.WorkConnexions.com.
Not only do communities provide extra resources for your particular interest.
They also give you the chance to show you skills. Join a community today…
I have Just Signed up for my Entre Card to see what it is all about. Inspired by Owen who has just developed a widjet so that you can see the last droppers (visitors). Could this replace blog catalogue and mybloglog who’s traffic to my site has dropped of recently. It seems a very fair system. You gain a credit every time somebody picks up your details by clicking on your Entree Card widget. This is by far the best system yet. The sign up process is very simple and you can get up and running in within 20 minutes. So if you have 20 mins to spare I recommend giving it twirl. I am looking forward to reporting back soon with more in depth thoughts about this. Don’t forget to check out Owen’s widget here.
