Increasing your PR with relevant links.

Expand Post »
We are creating back links with our search engine/directory. We are wondering if this will have value for people to increase their PR for their site. This is done through the sponsored listing that we have. We have not done the formal launch as of yet. We are waiting for the PR to increase on some result pages. It would be great to get some feedback from people regarding this. Our goal is to help the smaller business minded people who don't have unlimited budgets.

Re: Increasing your PR with relevant links.

The PR that your site will give will be so low that alone it has no SEO value. It won't be a good investment for someone to do. You will need to grow your directory to be one of the top ten or twenty on the entire Internet for it to possibly become worth it.

Re: Increasing your PR with relevant links.

I am not sure I understand what you are saying. The site is growing every day. That last two months we have made modifications and are still doing them. We will have over 500,000 people a day coming through our site by the end of October. If the PR is a 5 or more on the relevant keyword phrases why would that not be a good $25 investment for someone?

Re: Increasing your PR with relevant links.

So you want to sell links? Well, your home page may be a PR 5 but your inner pages are not. Plus the amount of PR sent to them via those links will be small as PR is shared amongst all links on the page plus the dampening factor reduces the value even more. Plus with Google cracking down on link selling there is a good chance those links will have no value regardless of any other factor anyways.

The only use those links would have would be for potential traffic if your content is similar to theirs. And never sell links based on projections. It doesn't fool anyone. You can sell links based on your current traffic and if your traffic goes up then you can charge more.

Re: Increasing your PR with relevant links.

I appreciate your feed back. The links we have our part of our sponsored listings and they also have back link capabilities. The one thing I never do is sell based on projected traffic. People can find out the average traffic to my site based on internet sources so that will speak for itself.

It is good to get objective feed back from others in the business. The goal is to get the landing pages that people advertise on to a PR 5.

Thanks for your info.

Re: Increasing your PR with relevant links.

I think it is very hard time to sell or buy links as google keep watch on these sites, best to sell ad space or join an ad network or affiliate program.

Re: Increasing your PR with relevant links.

The whole idea is to sell ad space, but it has an extra benefit for back links. Ad space is sold as in a search engine, but we made modifications that there is a link to your site on whatever page you want. We are now working on traffic to increase PR as well as over traffic rankings amongst the Internet's best sites.

Re: Increasing your PR with relevant links.

Hi,

The idea of earning income by selling links is good, but may not be wise. The reason is GOOGLE is tracking paid links. cluster of links, Google will easily track and will result in low value for the link buyer.

But i have noticed that for our site http://www.vkinfotek.com
reciprocal links with community sites has resulted in a slight increase in number of hits.

Re: Increasing your PR with relevant links.

I don't look at it as selling links on http://www.isrchnkd.com. The links are a bi-product if you will that will benefit your site. Check out the format. We are working on other servers right now as the traffic has been increasing tremendously.
