Those of us that make our living on the internet know that page rank in the major search engines are important. We also know that Google is the king of all search engines and getting on the first page of Google increases your chances of getting targeted visitors to your web sites.
Search engine optimization is something that should be balanced and you should have many different avenues for Google and the other search engines to find you. I'd like to cover the backlink theories.
Many people think that the more backlinks you have, the higher in the rankings you will be and the search engines will eat that up. In a sense, that is true and in another sense that is false. I own about 15 sites and one has about 33,000 backlinks. No kidding, it's got more backlinks than Bill Gates has dollars but it's not on the first page of Google.
In this particular instance, that's not much of an issue for me because I get about 400 unique visitors daily and the site generates a nice little revenue stream for me and it only takes about 20 minutes a day to maintain.
I have another site that has only about 800 backlinks and it's on the first page of Google for several keywords. It's a competitive niche and this site makes me some real nice money... time to manage about an hour a week.
What's the difference? The quality of the backlinks. The first site I talked about was one I bought all set up and the previous owner thought that all those back links would get him rankings. Not.
The second site I set up and developed... it's less than 5 months old, is a PR2 and is on the first page of Google for 8 different keywords because of the quality of the backlinks. I have it linked to high PR sites using those competitive keywords and my url imbedded in the keywords.
Much less work, much better ranking on Google and much more revenue because of the quality of the backlinks, not the quantity.
Want your site on the first page of Google?
Be willing to spend about 15 - 20 minutes a day putting your information on PR5 sites and next thing you know, you'll be ranked on the first page of Google!
