The best way to get your site to the top of the search engines is to have links. Links are more important than any other factor that the search engines look at when ranking your website. Each site that has a link to your website is in essence voting for your website. The more of these votes that you have, the better your website will rank.



Anchor text is the text that is visible to the user that the click on for your link. If you have a link to your website with the anchor text "make money" then that is really like the website you are on voting for your site being about making money.

There is a new problem on the horizon for link building. It used to be you could just go out and exchange a bunch of links to get your website up in the rankings. This is no longer true. Even the latest Google patent shows that the search engine is getting smarter. They are now lowering the impact of a link if it does not come from a relative page. All links help, however links from relative sites help a lot more.

The ideal way to get your rankings to soar is to get one way links from websites that are relevant to yours. At this time you are thinking, yeah right, who is going to give me a one way link from their site to mine. Actually this is very easy. All you have to do is write an article just like this one that you are reading. By submitting articles like this to directories you can get thousands of one way, free links, to your website.

Writing an article is so simple. Once you start writing articles it becomes natural. You just need to make sure you are adding value to the internet when writing an article. When you are done writing, then you start submitting. Each one you submit gets you a free one way link from a relevant page. You can also hire people to write and submit articles, though I say do it your self. There are also services that can submit articles quickly for you.

In conclusion you need to get your juices flowing and write some nice articles. Send them in to all the directories you can find, or pay some service to do it. The fastest, easiest way to rank number one in the search engines is to do this, but you better start today.
