Creating “Link to Us” Code Google places importance on what the text of links that it finds on other sites. Google analyzes the text of a link and compares it to text found on the linked-to page. You want other websites to have your best keywords in the text of links that point to your site, and then you want to make sure those same keywords appear prominently on your linked-to page. One way to help ensure this to create a “Link to Us” code section on your Links page that contains link code that other website owners can copy and paste on their websites. This helps you control what the text of the link says that is placed on other sites. Using a site about house plans as an example, here is representative link code on a Link to Us page (or section on a Related Links page): Link to the Best House Plans Site! Link to one of the fastest-growing sites for house plans on the Web today! Adding our link to your site is very easy. Simply copy the code between the dotted lines and add it to your web page: |
