Put Off-Page Links on Your Site Though off-page marketing is generally "off" your site, it begins on your site as well. The more links you have, the more the search engine spiders will find you. Use your blog, articles page and other content to link keywords to your homepage or specific on-site pages such as other articles, resources, and products and services. However, do not only link to yourself. Linking to other people's sites can also help your stats and drive traffic. Be sure to link to a site that is higher ranked than yours such as About.com, Wikipedia, Google, Yahoo, etc. Keep in mind that surfers look for valuable information, therefore link to something that's worthwhile. Otherwise they will quickly leave the site you linked to and may not bother to come back to yours. Remember the goal is also to keep surfers on your site for as long as possible. Article Directories - Make Your Content Accessible Register with articles directories and post all of your articles and resources under your or your company's name.
