Reciprocal Links to Boost Link Popularity

[softclick]

Link popularity means the number of incoming links pointing to your website. This is one of the criterical factor that rank the search results. If you are have link on website with high page rank (PR4+), you will benefit from it and your ranking will boost. Im recently looking at ways to increase my link popularity.
It gives a clear definition for different link terms. Let me summaries a bit here
- reciprocal links are link exchange between 2 sites. Site A have link to Site B and vice versa
- one way link are one way, Site A links to Site B, but Site B has no link to Site A
- triangular links are one way link among 3 sites
It is not advisable to have too many reciprocal links. Yes it can be nature to have reciprocal links, but too much simply means you are suspected to do it on purpose (to boost link popularity)
On the other hand, outgoing links to good and relevant sites can also be benefiting to your website. So, don't bother to put more relevant links with great contents in your pages.
As a conclusion after the link popularity studies, here's my view on it:
1. more links to relevant sites with rich content, and good page rank.
2. a little link exchange is acceptable, but don't make it over half of your links
3. limit the max number of links to 80 in your link page. Split it if too many.
4. a better appoarch to gain link popularity is by writing search engine articles. and Quality Directory Submissions

For these services you have to go for any freelancer and submitted your self. It is time consuming. in the market freelancer are also available.Before if you are going to take this services from outside you have to choose care fully in which directory they are submitting your site. You have care about all kind of information before you deal with them. It is batter if in which directory your site is submitted it must be relevant or categorize to your site don't go for the PR, I am not saying PR not good. PR is also batter but most of directories are not accept free submissions so we can submit our site in 0 pr sites and must we indexed by search engine.
The number of websites that link to your website is one of the factors that help search engines determine your relevancy for a search term. Link Building, Link popularity and gaining new links from outside websites to your website have proven to be a popular concept for people seeking to improve their search engine rankings.
