In modern internet marketing, the best and most profitable websites
are the ones that can consistently get good positions on search engine
result pages (SERP). You’ll have to make your site climb up the page
rankings to the first or second SERP if you want to sufficiently reach
your target market. Although one-way link building has been proven to
be very effective, contextual link building is the best (legal) way to get those results. One-Way Link Building: The Old Method Link building became a popular technique for improving search engine
optimization (SEO) ever since it was found that Google’s PageRank
algorithm considered a site’s popularity based on the number of one-way
or inbound links. This, however, was open for abuse; link building
services mushroomed, artificially pumping up websites using link farms
– entire pages that contained just one-way links to other sites. Google soon amended PageRank to detect instances of such underhanded
practices in internet marketing. Pretty soon, it wasn’t just the number
of one-way links to a website that was being considered, but also where
those links were coming from. That’s where contextual link building
comes in. How Contextual Link Building Works This modified technique involves a certain site that talks about a
topic related to your own page, and then places a one-way link to your
site somewhere in the text. Contextual link building is thus most often
done in places like blogs, ezine pages and shopping sites. You would
have to make an agreement with one such site in order to have them
create a relevant page and maintain a link to your site somewhere
within that page. Contextual Link Building Works Better You’ll most likely be better off using contextual link building instead
of plain old one-way link building because it’s more ethical. It’s not
just a question of morals or ethics, though; search engines tend to
penalize or even altogether ban sites that have been detected to use
black hat SEO techniques like link farming. At the same time, contextual link building gives you more opportunities
to convert your site traffic into sales, signups or leads. The article
or page containing your link could already be a buildup or a
preliminary sales talk for your main pitch. By the time the people
click on the link, they’d already have been convinced to a certain
extent and you’d have less convincing and pushing to do. Contextual link building thus makes for a more comprehensive internet marketing strategy made up of: • Better SERP placements because of the increased number of one-way
links, meaning people using those search engines will be likelier to
visit your site • An article or a block of text that contains your link while informing the reader or promoting your site at the same time • Improved popularity of the context article because search engines
will most probably pick up all the other keywords and meta tags that it
contains. This popularity then gets passed on to your own site because
the article points to it. Hiring a professional SEO company that knows how to do contextual link
building will help you get the results – and the page rankings – that
you want, legally.
