The Best way to promote a Link List
Hello everybody, i am kindda new to the industry. I was wondering what might be the best way to promote a link list. I am curently submitting free-sites with links to my site to other LL's, also galleries in TGP's. If any other webmaster wold be so kind to share from their experience i would verry much apreciate it.

One thing I would suggest is for you to populate your LL with some Free Sites. At the moment it looks very bare.
When I started my LL I used my own Free Sites, other people's free sites from here and Hosted Free Sites from various sponsors. I'd aim for around 25-30 sites in each niche to get going. You could also try Link dumps - you'll get a trickle of traffic - and the SE's will pick you up quicker. Also, hard link exchanges with other LL's. Cheers ![]()

If you build freesites use a few of your outgoing links as links to your LL. My LL has been around a while but I still do that.

One thing I would warn you about -- and I learned from experience -- is to decide upfront what quality of submission you want to accept. In the beginning I took anything on my link list just to beef up the inventory, but in the long run, I ended up with a lot of webmasters just grabbing some FHGs and adding a couple of recips at the top. The traffic will get tired of seeing the same FHGs they see everywhere. And if you decide down the road that you want to clean it up, you'll have a big job on your hands.
But the problem is that nobody wants to submit freesites to a link list that's new and trafficless. One of the things that I do is that I harvest links from other directories. I visit my favourite directory, then I start clicking links, if I like the freesite I paste it into my own interface, and then, I write my own title and description. (I do this last bit just so I don't piss anyone off.) It's a lot of work, but it'll populate your inventory with good freesites, and the webmasters owning the freesites will start to see you popping up in their traffic logs and start submitting to you with your recip.

Don't get discouraged; it's usually the last key that opens the lock...

You have several options...
One of which may be to exchange links with similiar sites. You can post in the links & traffic trades forum here on GG&Jim as well as other places. Another option might be setting up a toplist script on your site and then maybe buy some traffic to pump to your trades. Yet another area you could work on is your seo and try to get free traffic from the search engines. One more option might be to start a blog on your domain there, which may help increase your se presence as well as your traffic. Hope these options prove helpful. Goodluck. |
