One of the tricks, in fact the only trick, to moving your site up in the search engine rankings and driving more traffic to your site is to get incoming links to your webpage.  And it is important that these links be of high quality, obviously the higher quality the links are, the more they contribute to your search engine rankings.

However, if you are a new site or blog, such as this one, how do you get links from high quality sites?  Although some of the larger, more popular sites may link to you if you post some really, really good content, chances are most of the biggest sites have people clamoring to them for attention.  They have people e-mailing them about link trading, or trading site reviews, or other marketing arrangements all the time.  How can you get the attention of the better sites?

 Quick answer, you don’t.  Don’t try to market yourself to larger webpages.  Although it would be great to have a link from them, it is often quite a bit of time that could be better spent elsewhere.  The trick to getting high quality links is to find up and coming sites, and to market yourself to them.

Look for new webpages or blogs, sites that have been on the market for only a few months, and haven’t built up very many incoming links or PR yet.  Then look at the quality and frequency of their posts.  Are they high quality?  Are they frequent?  If the answer is yes to both, chances are that they will be moving up in the search engine rankings soon.  Befriend them, and they could drag you along with them.

It is a simple fact, who is more likely to be willing to link to your site, a popular page who might get 10 link trade requests a day, or a new site who only gets 1 a week.  The answer to that is fairly obvious.

If you have some patience, after a couple of months you can all move up in the search engine rankings together.  After all, if you link to quality, albeit new, sites, and get links from them in return, that will help your SEO.  If the other webpages are actually quality, then they will be doing their own search engine optimization as well.  As their pages become more highly valued, it will drive the value of your page higher, and vice versa.

And speaking of, this a new site…. up and coming perhaps….   want to link?

 Good luck and happy blogging.
