Link Building
• Link Building
A reciprocal link is a mutual link between two objects,
commonly between two websites, to ensure mutual traffic. For
example, Alice and John have websites. If John’s website links
to Alice's website, and Alice's website links to John's website,
the websites are reciprocally linked.
• Three Way Link
A three-way link exchange refers to a kind of reciprocal link
exchange among three domains instead of two. A reciprocal
link exchange that is so popular today among webmasters is
mostly a two-way linking.
Press Release
• Press Release

or video release is a written or recorded communication
directed at members of the news media for the purpose of
announcing something ostensibly newsworthy.
• Forum
Forum signature linking is a technique used to build backlinks
to a website. This is the process of using forum communities
that allow outbound hyperlinks in a member's signature. This
can be a fast method to build up inbound links to a website
Search Engine Optimization value.
Press Release
• Blogs
Leaving a comment on a blog can result in a relevant do-follow
link to the individual's website. Most of the time, however,
leaving a comment on a blog turns into a no-follow link, which
is almost useless in the eyes of search engines, such as Google
and Yahoo! Search. On the other hand, most blog comments
get clicked on by the readers of the blog if the comment is
well-thought-out and pertains to the discussion of the other
commenters and the post on the blog.
• Article Submission
Article submission is an effective way to quickly spread
specialized knowledge related to your business. If you have an
e-commerce website and a need for more traffic, a good
quality article submission service can make this happen within
quite a short timeframe.
