If you have a link directory on a website, how do you stop link theft by sites that don’t link back, or trick you into thinking they do?

Whether link theft is anything to get concerned about depends on how many links your website has, the quality of those links (Google Page Rank) and how many of those links you lose. Search Engine Ranking is certainly something that’s becoming more dependent upon the links to your website.

You might be forgiven for thinking that when a website no longer links back to you, that it was an accident your link was removed from the link directory. Of course accidents happen as I know from using some link manager software. Just one click in the wrong box and a website link disappears the next time you update your link directory. But the real link thieves are those people that use methods to rob you of a link.

Here’s 7 Top Ways Link Thieves work and how you can avoid being their next victim.

1. If a website asks you to exchange links, don’t link to them until they have given you the URL location of your link in their link directory. If you link to them first they may forget to add your link.

There are some extremely irritating things that have become an accepted part of life for virtually all webmasters and as the website administrator of the Wandle industrial museum, I promise you these things evan happen to the small local website’s.

One such constant annoyance is the stream of illogical emails demanding links.

Email is an interesting medium, part of the “problem” is that computer’s don’t smell; ie the knowledge gained from or created with a computer has no texture, or context. It’s there and then it’s gone, email disappears then seemingly arrives instantly and it is this that makes it emotionally cheap at the source.

This is written communication; where you can’t undo an offensive message and there’s a human being at the other end, reading your email and reacting to it with human feelings who will most likely misunderstand any ambiguities, and who can then archive and/or forward it.

Here is an example of a link request I recently recived from an irrelevant website; Note that email is not necessarily subject to protection by intellectual property rights.

Online statistics shows that about 10% from online visitors make immediate purchase on the web site. Other 90% of visitors may leave your web site forever, without making any purchase. Do you want to lose 90% of web site visitors that were driven with so many efforts?

Internet marketing has time-proven tool that catches targeted visitors on your web site and transform them into loyal clients. This tool is known as autoresponder.

Autoresponder is very similar to a mailing list. But its aims and functioning differ.

Mailing list is used to send the messages to its subscribers; autoreposnder GATHERS subscribers and then sends them messages.

For example, you got to the web site about University scholarships, and you are not ready to buy anything from this web site right now. But you see a pop-up window or subscription form saying something like, “Sign up here to get free and fresh updates on new scholarship programs”. Hm, you start thinking. If you are a targeted visitor and feel motivated to get a scholarship, you will surely subscribe to free updates about new scholarship programs.

What is an email message in terms of communicating in Internet? Usually people say this is a specially coded message that can deliver information to the specified address(es). But this is a very formal explanation.

Email is your voice in Internet. Though the technologies of transferring sounds and live video images are developing rapidly, still email remains the most universal tool for communicating in Internet. So, email is the voice of your web site. If the web site “speaks” with a professionally set voice, using good tone - the web site gets high credibility. That is why a proper management of email for the web site is very important.

But emails are not only message carriers to your clients or prospects. They can be a powerful advertising cool, educational guideline or eZine which helps to promote the product/service better. Emails can serve as a good feedback from the clients. Only your imagination can limit the benefits of using emails for your online business.

A funny thing happened to me three months ago. I decided to practice what I preach and publish a new article online. Hey, its easy to get sidetracked on other projects online and drop or forget about what works. We all do it.

It started when I was in a particularly good mood and itching to write about something I could publish online. I decided to post it for free on four article hosting and distribution sites. The four I chose were PermanentAds.net, GoArticles.com, Article-Emporium.com and EzineArticles.com.

The article I chose to write about was about buying tools online. Later, on April 28, I wrote an article about the early warning signs of mesothelioma cancer. After a couple of weeks of writing each article I decided to beginning checking Google and Yahoo’s search results to determine how many urls were displaying my two articles. The absolutely fantastic results obtained thus far are staggering.

My article about tools, with the title “Start Your Next Home Improvement Project With Tools and Hardware You Buy Online” now appears on 127 different Google search results (or url addresses). You can check it yourself. Just go to Google’s search box and type in the title of my article, being sure to put quote ” marks before and after the title. Like this:

Be picky about who will link to you; shoot and scatter does not always work.

Just having a website is not enough to get yourself noticed. You will need to do a number of things in order to have your site better known. Here are three ideas that you may want to use.

First, find another business that is a good fit for what you do, and have your information displayed on their site; you will probably also need to display their information on your site. Do not just pick any site to exchange information, make sure they have the same business values as you. I personally do not use other sites unless there is value in it for both parties.

Second, make sure you are active in newsgroups such as Yahoo Groups in your area of expertise. Newsgroups are not a place to tout your business but they are a place to give free advice and get yourself known in the process. Just make sure the group you join and the advice you give fits in with your business model.
