One thing about seo is not about how many links you have, but the quality of them yes the quantity doesn’t hurt, and helps, but there are important factors to remember as an seo, I got a keyword that has made it to the 8th page on Google with then 2 months, and this keyword is very competitive, and digital point is saying its getting around 4-12k searches a day.

Granted now it is on the 8th page, but it is shooting up everyday in the serps due to a quality link, now I am getting all kinds of links that are helping because of the quality ones that I had, and even the lower end links are giving me more credibility with the search engines then what they would of before beucase of the “quality links”, now my site sets in a good area.

Now I will explain how I did this, and what worked for me as an seo, just remember its not the quantity of links, but its the quality, get quality links along with lower end directories, now the lower end directories will help specially if you get listed in high end websites, or get high quality links, and it won’t take so many of the lower end directories to boost you up because Google will value these lower end directories more because you have a higher end link.

What I’m getting to here is that you can actually have 1 link that will out power 100,000 links, and yes this is very true saying that the website linked to you don’t have hardly any outbound links, I would have to say less links with good value are better then a bunch of lower quality links

Just remember not to get confused if you see someone that has 50k links, and you only have 5k links cause if you get good enough links, it will out power then 50k links easily, and another thing is to remember typically if a website is ranking in the search engines, and has a lot of value with them, then its a great link to have, it puts your website in a perspective to have credibility with the search engines.

One thing I am focusing on now is link baits, which I have been very successful at, but I haven’t done to many on this site typical due for many reasons, but now that I have some great rankings with multiple keywords I will focus on link baits to gain more links(natural linking is the best, and relevant).

I wrote this just because I think its important to tell other people what I have learned watching the search engines, and studying them for 17 hours straight at times, and waking up in the middle of the night watching Google re index my site, and serps shooting up.
