SOME BACKGROUND INFO...

Link exchanges are a form of cross promotion and can drive new online and foot traffic to your business. Link exchanges can also really help your SEO, Search Engine Optimization. Now, you may ask, what does search engine optimization really mean? Basically, your website and/or business listing is optimized for best placement on search engines.

When people go on the internet, if they do not know the exact web address for what they are looking for they will search for it. Also, many people I know use the search boxes in lieu of an address bar. Meaning, even when they have a web address, they enter the address in the search bar.

Your concern is, will your website come up in the top ten listings when people search. The more links you have coming to your site, the better your search engine ranking.

TARGETED TRAFFIC. Before you can understand targeted traffic, you have to have defined who is your target audience. Your targeted audience is part of the foundation on which your business is built. The belief that you should share with anybody and everybody in hopes that maybe somebody will be interested in your offerings, is erroneous.

We each only have so much time, energy, and resources, so we must be strategic in in our movement. Defining your target audience seems so basic in business, but so many business people, especially many network marketers, seem to overlook this important element and in turn have low sales results while many time creating a brand image of being a pest, not to take seriously, spam, etc.

When choosing link exchanges, select exchanges that market to your target audience and to people and/or businesses who would refer to your target audience. Think about what type of things does your target audience do, where do they go, what things do they like, do they rent or own. These questions will help you know where to find your target audience and thereby help you choose the best link exchanges.

Below is information on three types of link exchanges in an article by Edwina Warder, CEO of eBiz Marketing. Edwina uses eBiz Marketing's link exchanges as examples. You can determine if they will drive targeted traffic to you.
