Linkvanna is a site that we have been using for a while now.  You may have read a few tidbits about it on previous blog posts on this site.  You may have even watched a few videos in and around you tube on the subject.  I put this second video together to build on the anchor text building video in the previous post.  If you have not watched that one, I would advise watching that one first.

Here is a video of the very basics of anchor text linking and how it works.  This is part of our SEO series and shows you how valuable Linkvanna can be for your search efforts.

If you have started your own site, or you are thinking about doing so, you may have hit a bit of a road block.  If you have done any homework you will have found that you need one way inbound links pointing to your site in order for it to rank better in Google.  Google uses a complex formula to rank web pages, so every page has an opportunity to rank.  But if you focused on inbound links, you would most have a better shot at ranking in the search engines thus getting visitors to do what you want them to do on your site.  That could be to read, to click or to buy.

I have found a killer service that is really helping me get inbound links to my pages for actual keywords that I want to rank for.  Linkvana is not free but it does an amazing job at helping you control anchor text linking, something I will be speaking about a lot in the up and coming posts.

This video will give you a pretty good start, but we will continue to elaborate on this subject showing you how to use it in a great system to bring you results faster than most methods.

The Skinny

Right now the service costs $197 per month to use, there is a special right now to get it at $147 per month.  Before you go and throw up your hands thinking that is too much money, let me tell you this.  I have spent thousands trying to find good people to do my own linking and SEO work.  Most of it is wasted because everyone tries to take the easy way out and give you crappy inbound links in bad neighborhoods.  For a very small budget you can submit and make your own anchor text links and go hog wild, there is no limit.  So If you were to work hard, and do ten small 100 word blurbs a day, you would generate 300 links per month.  Can you do that much?  Maybe, maybe not, it depends on how dedicated you are.  The opportunity is there and it does work.  This is a product that I use, not just endorse.  I will be including more on this very subject in the next post.

I copied a interesting question from a forum that I go to regularly.  I feel like the answer that I gave is very helpful when people are starting to promote their sites.

The thread copy is this: How can I make sales without paying Google so much money?

One answer was given as:

Its simple to make sales without purchasing/paying for those ads but it takes plenty of research….I personally help people through my website to get free advertising and floods of traffic to their Business…The website lists only the best resources for Google,Ebay,Classifieds and more….Some sites let you place ads that run up to 360 days free…visit the site…what you need is there

I can also place a link for you on my site….lets do the link exchange if you are interested.

The answer given to this post is:

Well I hate to rain on anyones parade but you have to do some serious research when it comes to link exchanges. Most people have absolutly no idea how it is viewed by Google but they dive in anyway. Link exchanges used to be popular, but Google has started to discount them and will soon disregard them in the future. Most people want to do them, because they are easy, easy stuff has a gravitational pull for most. The problem is when you sign up for “instant backlinks” is that you have no idea where your links are coming from until they start showing up. Links on link farms stink, and you really need to know where your link is placed. Its called theme relevancy. If your site is about kitchen gadgets and your link is on a computer site (with no page rank or authority) guess what your link relavency is? Yes you guessed it….zippo. That is because your sites are not about the same thing. Google has a bunch of brilliant people on staff, they know how to find people that are trying to game the system. Link building is a slow process is you do it right, you have to find or create good links to point to your site. Anything that says “free” “automatic” “easy” or “turbo” should be ignored.
