LET'S LINK WEBSITES!
|
|
Hello, and
thanks for considering linking your website with ours.
In Part
A, find out what linking sites (also called "exchanging links") is all
about and what the benefits are to each of us.
In Part
B, find out how we can link sites... it's just 3 easy steps.
|
PART A - LINKING
WEBSITES
WHAT IS LINKING? HOW IS IT DONE? WHY DO IT? |
Let's start with the
WHAT & HOW. Linking websites is nothing more than (a) us
putting a link on our website pointing to your
website (along with a descriptive blurb) and
(b) you doing the same for us. You can see what we mean by visiting our
links page. (Note: you DON'T have to have a
special links page in your website.) Anyway, our point is that linking
websites has nothing to do with merging
websites or exchanging
files or data or info or anything like that.
Now for the WHY.
There are two basic reasons. One is highly touted but
overrated, the second is a underrated but in
reality the most important reason.
Let's dispense with the
overrated one first. Supposedly, if we link sites, then your visitors
will see your link to us and come visit
our website, and vice
versa. Personally, we doubt this happens much at all on the internet,
even when the two linking websites target a common market. And in our
case, the chances are even less because frankly relatively
few people looking for
something on our website
would have any interest in what's on your
website and vice versa. Could happen, but it's a
long shot.
So why should we still link?
Because of the second and relatively unknown
reason: Linking will
boost our respective websites' ranking among the
search engines for keyword searches, and that's where the action is.
Both of us are interested in penetrating our respective markets, and one
way of doing that is through our websites, which is
why we have websites. More to the point, you (like us) are
hoping prospective customers will find
your website when they do a keyword search on their favorite search
engine. But but what if you're on page 15 of the search results and
your competition is on page 1 or 2? How do you get
your website up the ladder and on page 1
(or closer to it) of the search results?
There are several things you
can do, and one of them is to have other websites link to
your website. Why? Because the search engines (Google,
MSN, Yahoo, etc) see someone linking to your website as a "yes" vote...
and the more votes you get, the more weight your site is given
when they do their indexing.
Bottom
line: You gain by us linking
to you, and we gain by you linking to us. It's as simple as that.

PART B - HOW TO LINK TO
BARCLAY ENTERPRISES, INC. |
If you
want to exchange links, let us know and we'll create a link to you on
our
links page.
Then, all
you have to do is reciprocate by putting a link to us on your website. It takes
ONLY 3 EASY STEPS:
|
STEP |
NOTES |
|
STEP 1
DECIDE WHERE ON YOUR WEBSITE YOU WANT TO PUT A LINK TO US. |
It can be on any
page you want, and you don't need to create a
separate "links" page the way we have.
Remember, we really don't care if human visitors even know it exists...
we just want the search engines to be able to find it when they do
their indexing.
However, for the
same reason, it MUST
be a page that can be eventually
reached via internal links. In other
words, the page where you have the link to us must not be
a stand alone page with no internal links to it. Why? Because the
chances of search engines' webbots
finding such a stand alone "island" page
is extremely low, and even if they do, they won't put much
credibility in it. Thus, the likelihood
of them capturing and indexing your link to us
would be essentially zero. |
|
STEP 2
CREATE A LINK TO US. |
Below are our preferences
(in descending order) of how your link to us might look.
You can decide what's appropriate
based on the style of the page where
you'll be putting the link. You should be able to just cut 'n'
paste, and feel free to change the
font:
Option 1 If you can "do it up big",
please use this format. (This is how your link in our website looks.) Note that the keywords on the top line are
hyperlinked to our website. Having keywords hyperlinked is actually more
important to the search engines than hyperlinking the domain name. (But we
hyperlink both.)

Option 2
If you can only do a "one
liner", please consider using this. Note that the entire line is hyperlinked, not
just the domain name. If you need to eliminate anything, drop the domain
name. The important thing is to hyperlink the keywords to our website.

Option 3
If you can only do a
shorter "one liner", then the keywords alone are the most
important thing:

equipment for sale
Option 4
If all you can do is our
domain name, then that's all you can do and it's better than nothing!

STEP 3
LET US KNOW YOU'VE DONE IT. |
You can email me at
repairs@barclayent.com.
Also, tell me how a visitor/webbot would reach the page in question (i.e., what the internal link trail is for
getting from your home page to the page with the link). |
