  • This means that you make people aware of your website and build their understanding of it. In any action, there will be a reaction. During one Google Hangout video which was published on YouTube, John Mueller was questioned about what he knows about links. He replied that you have to introduce your site by advertising. Then, let the people decide whether or not your website is worth visiting.
  1. Social Media
  • There is no iota of a doubt that social media is a terrific means to increasing page visits and online sales. Thus, you should associate yourself with those who are known in social media.

That will make your business image look real good.
  • You can start your own event as well. Try joining a small group and this will eventually boost your confidence in public speaking. Inevitably, you will become respected and known.

  • Connect with people who are in the same industry as you do for as long as they are not your competitors. It is easier to get links if your linking to a site which are linked to their colleagues. The links could come from testimonials, reviews, and endorsements.
  • Links are like friends. In order to have a friend, be that friend first. If you make the first move in linking websites, they will do the same to your website. So, do share links to the establishments that you support, and you will get links in return.

 

Are FREE links truly free? Links may seem free, but they will surely require you to do a lot of effort. Links have to be organic and natural.
