Act Wisely and Avoid These Sites when Choosing Your Reciprocal Link Partners.
Article by Kanaga Siva
Developing strategies for obtaining One Way Inbound Links, choosing the right Link Partners and building link partnerships are an important ongoing exercise in the life of a webmaster. Though one way inbound links are considered by search engines to be superior to reciprocal links, good quality reciprocal links from relevant websites are very much appreciated by them as well.
Choosing the ideal link partners is not an easy task. There are several important factors that have to be considered very carefully before you choose your link partner. Linking to some sites will not bring any benefits to you at all. There are sites that you should avoid at all costs because linking to them can get your site penalised or even banned.
Link partnerships should be mutually beneficial and provide complementary unique and valuable content that makes the visitor’s website experience enjoyable and memorable. So by following these simple steps you will soon be on the way to building successful link partners.
1. Avoid linking to websites whose theme has no relevance to your website even if these sites are of high Page Rank.
2. Avoid websites whose link pages are more than two clicks away from the home page.
3. Sites that do not have access to the links page from the home page should be avoided since it will not be easily accessible and you are not going to benefit from this partnership.
4. Websites that have links to the links directory hidden somewhere in the front page and cannot be easily located should also be avoided.
5. It is wise to avoid sites that have more than 30 links to a page even if they are categorised. If there are more links, it will be difficult to locate your link and you are not going to benefit from this link exchange.
6. Avoid linking to too many sites with low PR as this is not going to be of any advantage to you. If there is a request to be reciprocal link partners from some of these sites, be choosy and identify those you think will obtain high PR in the near future and accept the request.
7.Avoid Bad Neighborhoods. These are sites that have been penalized or banned by search engines. If you have outbound links, linking to sites with a bad reputation, you will be penalized by the search engines, especially by Google.
8. You must at all costs avoid Link Farms. These are sites that have an assorted collection of hundreds of links in a page without any categorisation and linked to each other. Search Engines dislike these sites. If you link with them your credibility could be at stake. You could be penalized or even banned by the search engines.
9.Avoid FFA sites. FFA sites are Free For All sites that allows you to place a free AD and leave a link to your website. There will be hundreds of such links in one page where you link will hardly get noticed.They will probably be there for a couple of hours only. Search Engines especially Google consider these sites as spam and will penalize you.
Building good Reciprocal Link Partnerships not only bring traffic and increase link popularity but there are other possibilities as well such as exchanging articles, e-books and starting Joint Ventures. Such link partners are often long standing and mutually beneficial.

How to Drive Traffic Through Reciprocal Link Building
How to Drive Traffic Through Reciprocal Link Building
Article by b.schaefer
Link exchange will result if you have set a topnotch site with interesting content and other related information, this will in turn help others who want to exchange links with you for an added internet exposure.
Few notes on Reciprocal Link Building
* Make sure that you are linked to relevant sites meaning you both have the same subject matter and at the same time all the links are also related to each other.
* It’s more about quality than quantity. In reciprocal link building, be on the look out for quality sites, linking to more and more sites not really related to your site is not advisable.
* This is a long and sometimes frustrating process because you still have to check if the sites have agreed on link exchange and regularly track down if the link to your site is still present on the other’s website.
* Some webmasters may turn down your link and replace it with another link. If that’s the case, take their link off your site also as this can give them good search engine rankings as one way linking and your website may lose.
* Examine the other site link pages, are they indexed and visited by Google? If the site has no follow through or are hidden from those called robots, this will do you no good, it can even damage your ranking.
* When requesting for a link exchange, consider the links that are displayed/linked to the other site, all the links should be relevant to your website. Also, the site should not have many broken links from other sites.
*Keep the number of links on that page at a minimum amount, if the page has 40 or more links then don’t waste your time there anymore.
* You can decide however if you want to have a separate link page, this will depend on the size of the site and what your topic is all about.
Be extra careful in the reciprocal link building process, make sure that all the links are relevant and all the links contained in the other website website are also related. Bear in mind also that not all webmasters are willing to exchange links, some webmasters do not allow link exchange or if they allow it, double check if your link exists on their link pages. Sometimes, webmasters do a naughty trick of hiding links after they’ve agreed on a link exchange.
Follow the link exchange rules. The site that you are exchanging links with should exist in major search engines and has good traffic ranking (Alexa is an effective site to keep track on rankings and traffic). Check regularly, let’s say every month if your link is still in the site, some webmasters also have this practice of removing other links in their sites.
Reciprocal linking is a good and free way of achieving high website ranking but you should still monitor once in a while, after the link exchange don’t stop there continue to check the status of your links and site rankings.
