Review - "Make Your Links Work!" eBook on Building Link Popularity
Inside look at a free ebook on improving your link popularity while avoiding the traps and penalties associated with link building
Make Your Links Work! was a real breath of fresh air for me. Over the years, I've grown increasingly frustrated with the direction that search engine optimization has gone. Much of both seo and especially improving link popularity have gotten stuck in trying to find more clever ways of manipulating the search engines and, to an unfortunately large degree, cheating other webmasters who engage in reciprocal link exchanges.
That's why I really appreciated Make Your Links Work! This is one ebook that is not afraid to make those very points and to warn of the eventual crash that even those who use 'white hat' seo techniques risk.
A new approach to link popularity
But Make Your Links Work! isn't a doom and gloom, sky-is-falling warning of certain disaster. It takes a clear-eyed view of what the search engines look for in determining rankings. And it suggests an approach that offers long-term ranking gains by creating the kind of pages the search engines have been asking people to create all along: pages built to benefit searchers and not just to manipulate rankings.
This 90-page ebook is divided into three parts. Ken Evoy, the writer, invites you to start at whichever part best suits your needs:
- The overall background of seo and improving link popularity and how traditional techniques are becoming less and less reliable
- An overview of how inbound links benefit your website and the increasingly harmful effect that traditional link popularity strategies have on rankings
- Specific details about how to improve link popularity that focuses on becoming and linking to websites that remain safe from search engine penalties.
What "Make Your Links Work! does for you
In doing so, Make Your Links Work! does five things for you:
- It proposes a more powerful alternative to reciprocal linking that saves you much of the tedious work of finding link partners.
- It describes how to improve link popularity on a purely manual basis, if you want to handle it that way.
- It alerts you to the underhanded tricks that unethical link partners use to cheat partners out of a reciprocal link.
- It warns you of specific dangerous link popularity-building practices to avoid.
- It shows you resources to conduct a value-based link popularity program at minimum of time and with no cost.
How to read Make Your Links Work!
Since the book is written so you can start it at any of three places, It sometimes seems a little repetitive if you read it through from the beginning, as I did. But I recommend that you read it through.
There's so much harmful information about seo floating around the Web. You owe it to yourself to hear the alternative to the endless chase after the search engines' ever-changing algorithms that many seos promote.
