Way back before when SEO software were just starting, they were merely concerned to have as many back links as they can. It was more of quantity over quality. However, the days have changed and now, quality is better than quantity. Because of that, there are certain back links that you should avoid and some are those you go for.
What are the good and the bad when it comes to SEO?
The Bad and the Ones to Avoid:
· Reciprocal Links: Having reciprocal back links will probably lead you to only two things: the good and the bad. The good side is that you can seriously make it both beneficial to you and the link you are exchanging with if you have similar websites. The bad news is if it is an unrelated site, it will and can possibly stain your reputation. These types of links are very overrated, overused and simply creates spam.
· Site Wide Links: Site wide links are those links you can find at any corner of the site. From the header to the footer to left and right. Surely, it may create traffic but then it will really not help in your rankings or ratings. Having a link all over the place means that your text link is probably irrelevant compared with the other links.
The Good and the Ones to Look out for:
·Social Networking and Book marking: It may seem ridiculous for you and for some but social back links are really one of those that create great traffic. It is actually maybe one of the reasons why your sites are flooded.
· Article-related: Another natural source of traffic and ranking top when it comes to search ratings would be a nicely written article. If your links are endowed in the middle or whatever part of an article that is excellently written, your links will also be considered as very important and practical.
· Blog Site Back Links: Blog sites are now everywhere. It is a way to read about information in a funny, interesting and definitely not boring way compared to say the news sites. Since it is so popular, having a blog site link in your site will also create traffic.
