How to convince webmasters that they should link to your site
Every week i get a email from axandra.com. This week was the topic how to convince webmasters that they should link to your site. You can sign up here and scroll down and subscribe to the mailinglist. Linkbuilding is very good for your seo and here you can see the 5 tips.
1. Offer something in return
The easiest thing that you could offer is a link in return. However, not all webmasters want to exchange links.
There are many things that you could offer in exchange for a link. This could be a discount for your products, an ad on your website or even a simple hint.
If you find a broken link on a website, inform the webmaster about the link. Tell him that your own website might be a good replacement for the broken link (if it is).
2. Ask your current link partners
If another website already links to you then they might add another link to a different page on your website.
Getting a second link from existing link partners is much easier than getting new links because you don’t have to explain yourself anymore. The other webmaster already knows you and your site.
