Link Popularity is more important now
than ever! Most major search engines use link popularity as an
important factor in ranking relevancy. Search engines have become
more sophisticated, and so has link popularity.
Link popularity is
where other sites have links to your site. The more popular the site
that links to you, the higher the ranking you achieve with the
search engines. However many search engines will penalize your
ratings if the sites linking to yours has no relevancy to your site.
In the past, in an
effort to gain more link popularity, "link farms" began
sprouting up across the web. For a fee, a web site owner could join
link farms and enjoy increased link popularity overnight. Search
engines caught onto this tactic and created better tools for
detecting legitimate links. Web sites that have links from web sites
with "similar" or "relevant" content score
higher, thus earn better placement in search engines. It is more
important than ever to develop a solid "link-popularity"
strategy.
it is extremely
important that your site be heavily networked on the Internet within
your subject matter to enhance your search engine positioning. Major
search engines use this style of link popularity when ranking web
sites.

highly relevant to your target audience then contact and request
links from each of them individually. This is a very time-consuming
process which must be done by manually, one at a time.
