How to Get People Linking to Your Website…
Most people will tell you getting the average webmaster to give you one-way incoming links (one that does not require you to link back to their website) is about as easy as ‘doing handstands on a tightrope’ and much harder than reciprocal linking which does require you to link back to a site.
But there are a few ways that you can get all the one way links you can poke a stick at.
Let’s Look At How to Get More One Way Links to Your Website
1. Answer the # 1 Question Every Potential Link Supplier Will Ask Every Time They Even Consider Linking to Your Site:
W.I.I.F.M.? or “What’s in it for Me?” This might require some thought but don’t be tempted to skip this or place it in the ‘too hard’ basket.
If you can give people a ‘valid’ reason to link to your site, they will do so in droves.
One simple and very effective way to do this is to write a quality eBook (or use a service like RentACoder.com or Elance.com to hire someone to write it for you)and offer potential link partners the Reprint Rights if they place a one way link on your website for a period of 2 years or more.
You can use the same method with software, training videos or mp3 files.
NOTE: In every case, you should put up a valid website where you offer the Reprint Rights with a real order button.
And you will get a much better response if you use an expert service like Bannersmall.com to create a professional-looking eBook cover and Header graphic for your product, software and website.
2. Answer the Second Most Important Question Every Potential Link Partner Will Ask Every Time They Even Consider Linking to Your Site:
W.I.I.F.M.C.? “What’s in it for My Clients?”
- – Does your website really offer outstanding value for money?
- – Is the content relevant, helpful and worthwhile?
- – Would YOU go there regularly if you didn’t get paid to?
Why not offer a special download each month? a report, interview, pdf file or mp3 interview?
Next to convincing people there is ‘something in it’ for them, the next most powerful way to get one way links is to show them that their clients will benefit from visiting your site.
3. Give Link Partners Great Tools. Create a page on your site with a range (a wide range because, people being people – not everyone will like the same styles) of Banners, Buttons and Text Links complete with ready to ‘cut-and-paste’ html code.
NOTE: Bannersmall.com have a very comprehensive package and having used them several times I highly recommend them.
In other words, you need to make it VERY easy for people to link to you.
4. Use Software to Save Time in Locating Link Partners. I would be utterly lost without one application that saves me money, time and stress in identifying potential link partners.
5. Use the Telephone. You would be utterly amazed at how few Internet Marketers or for that matter, webmasters in general use the telephone to ask for links.
I have made more deals simply by picking up the telephone and talking to someone for a few minutes than just about anything else.
HINT: Stop and think for a moment – the very LAST thing most of us want is more emails!
I suggest using a service like http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock to make sure you don’t get a potential link source out of bed at 2am in the morning! (It has happened to me on several occasions now and believe me, does anything but put you in the right frame of mind to do a JV with the caller!).
If you do these simple things on a daily basis, you will soon find that getting one way incoming links to your site really isn’t an impossible dream.
In the grand scheme of things you get an A+ for effort. Where you lost me was in the details. As they say, details make or break the argument.. And it could not be more true here. Having said that, let me tell you what did work. Your writing is very persuasive and that is probably why I am taking the effort to comment. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, while I can see the jumps in logic you make, I am not sure of how you seem to connect the points which make the conclusion. For now I shall subscribe to your point but hope in the future you connect the dots better.

My wife and i got quite fortunate when Peter could round up his studies through your ideas he had out of your weblog. It’s not at all simplistic to simply find yourself freely giving steps which people today may have been selling. And now we see we have the website owner to give thanks to for this. Those illustrations you made, the straightforward web site menu, the friendships you can make it easier to engender – it’s mostly terrific, and it’s really helping our son in addition to us recognize that the topic is pleasurable, which is certainly seriously pressing. Thanks for the whole thing!
