Article Marketing on the Internet is a whole different story
Why do you need links to your website or blog? Because the more links pointing to your online website or blog the more important the search engines think you are. Remember Search Engines are robots and when they spider your website all they are looking for is content and links. Beware: Do not pay to get thousands of links.
This very important. Getting thousands of links to your website will give the search engines a big red flag. S.E's like websites that get links the old fashioned way...slowly. What is the best way of getting links? They best way is by asking other website owners who have similar sites for a link on their website and in turn you put their website link on your site.
This is called a reciprocal link. Sort of like "you pat my back and I'll pat yours". The only thing wrong with this picture is that it takes forever to seek, find, and send email to each website owner asking for such a link. There is one way to automatically add links with very little work it's called Reciprocal Link Exchange and it works like this.
You create a web PAGE to your website for reciprocal link purposes...you can call it whatever, I recommend "whateverpage-directory.html". You then upload it to your root directory. That means all webpages listed under your home page. Then start by visiting other website owners with similar interests or niche websites and asking the owner for a link exchange. There are literally hundreds of link exchange websites or reciprocal linking schemes in the world wide web.
I would stay away from websites that claim thousands of links in a couple of days. There are numerous legitimate linking services. Another way to get free one way links is by article writing. It is the best way to get free one way links. You should write articles to the best articles directories ezinearticles.com goarticles.com and others. You can just google "articles directories".
