How to Use Online Links Effectively

An Online link basically refers to a connection or clickable link online. On the internet, online links are a vital component of websites and can even help you improve your search engine ranking.  Links are a great way to build relationships and help business owners establish trust among their visitors and customers.

There are many ways to use links for business success.  First, start with the content you are already providnig on your site.  All the information you've provided on your site about yourself, your business, testimonials and other relevant things that you know will be useful to your website visitors.  Each of these sections can be reached by the use of an online link. 

Remember, quality is one thing web users look for when researching information online. Another is ease of navigation.  Links help ensure your site is easy to move around on in an ordered fashion.  If your site is confusing or has no obvious roadmap, your visitors will find this confusing and soon leave. Hence, you need to keep this in mind anytime you update your website.  

Broken links are another website no-no.  When visitors click a link on your site and the page does not exist or they get an error, their attention span will rapidly dwindle.  Ensure you do an audit of the links contained in your website at least every 6 months, more frequently if you have the resources.

One way of building links back to your own site is by submitting articles to directories. Savvy Web Women has written quite a few articles to date on the power of using articles in your business. Articles are your chance to show your readers that you are an expert and are capable of giving them valuable information. At the end of your article, include a link back to your website. Your author resource box should also have a link back to your site or blog.  These links are called back links and can really help push your website or blog up the page with search engine rankings.

If you're a member of a networking group which allows you to post articles on their site or the site's blog, make the time to utilise these golden opportunities and make use of these links. The purpose of providing links in the articles you write is to give your target readers easy access to your website.  It is literally just a mouse click for them to be directed back to your site.  Many readers will do this if they have enjoyed your article and wish  to learn more about you or to find other articles you may have written.  Members of our Web Secrets Success Club enjoy an exclusive opportunity to post articles on the Savvy Web Women website.  It's a great way for them to establish their credibility in their field of expertise.

Listing your website and a link to it on an online business directory is also highly recommended. This will ensure your site gets easily searched. Some networking sites also make this directory feature available to members so make sure you take advantage of this as well.   

Now might be a good time to do a stock take of any networking sites to which you belong and see what benefits they offer to members.  If posting articles or offering a business directory listing is available to you, make a note and add it to your To Do list. The benefits can be enormous for often, little or no cost.

Exchanging links is also a very common practice among Internet users. This is done either one-way or two-way. A one-way type of link is when a particular website links to another site with relevant content. In other words, the site you link to is complimentary to yours or it may contain relevant and interesting articles there that you'd like to share with your readers. A two-way or reciprocal link, on the other hand, means website A links to website B and vice versa. This can be arranged between the two websites involved.

To make your site easy to link to and attractive to other business people and publishers, you need to establish your authority in your specific field. How do you this? Again we go back to providing quality and useful content. Writing articles that find solutions to problems such as the "how to" type or those that share tips and strategies will secure the best results for you. 

When you write, use simple and conversational language so that people will easily understand your message. Edit and proofread your articles more than once to make sure there are no grammatical or spelling errors.

Five Minutes with...

Kylee_LeggeKylee Legge The Publishing Queen

Question 1             
What has been your biggest challenge in business and how did you overcome it?

My biggest challenge in business has actually been myself. I made sure I learnt from the best early on so effective marketing and getting business was never a problem for me. My biggest challenge was I got a good reputation and good quantity of clients quickly and easily but being a shop-a-holic I spent the profits just as quickly as they came in to market and continue to grow my business. I now have a good team to work beside me; a bookkeeper to make sure I am managing my money correctly and a business coach to keep me in line. Now that I have learnt how to manage my money by controlling my spending there is always plenty of money in the bank and plenty coming in on a regular basis so I no longer need to worry about cash flow.

Question 2
If you had to start your business again from scratch, what would you do differently?

The Publishing Queen is actually my second business and that is exactly how I established it - changing everything I didn't like about my old business to create a better business for me and in turn better service, quality and prices for my customers. I changed the following things:

1. Don't have a physical office but run a virtual office. This way you can work from anywhere in the world, at any time of day (or not work as the case may be). You don't want to have to go to work 9-5 or for you business to stop functioning because you didn't turn up one day.
2. Don't employ anyone but delegate to sub contractors who can work self sufficiently from their own home/office with their own equipment at no expense (insurance, super, equipment, training, unproductive hours etc.) to you other than the pre-agreed rate for the job they are doing for you.
3. Automate everything into systems that run without you needing to do anything. My favorite system's are the ones that put money straight into your bank account while giving your customer their purchase instantly and all you have to do is watch the money appear in your account.

Question 3
Who do you admire and why?

I admire a wide range of people for different reasons. In business I find it is best to surround yourself with the best of the best and learn to imitate the qualities you like in others to improve you as a person, your business and what you can offer your customers. If I had to pick one person I would have to say Stuart Zadel Australia's foremost 'Think and Grow Rich' expert. He took a book he didn't even write, and distributed it all over Australia to create 3 very powerful outcomes. Firstly he loves what he does, secondly he has an automated system to ensure he gets paid good money for doing it and thirdly he is getting a very powerful message out to a large volume of people for fr.ee. This is what I teach all my customers to do and what I aspire to do every day. Love what you do, help as many people as you possibly can in a life changing way by doing it and make sure you personally are looked after financially as a result of your efforts.

Question 4
It takes a lot of determination and dedication to succeed in business. What keeps you motivated?

Honestly the adrenaline rush. That might sound strange but I love what I do, love helping people publish a book to fulfill their dreams (and provide them with enough money to be able to get paid for what they love to do) and I love getting paid for what I would do for fr.ee. That is 3 lots of adrenaline being pumped into me repeatedly on a daily basis. How can you not keep doing what you are doing when you are having fun, changing lives and getting paid for it!

Question 5
What are your 3 biggest success tips? 

Interesting question as this is almost what the first 1/3 of my second book is about.

  1. Start Now - the biggest thing that stops anyone achieving anything is themself. Don't procrastinate just do it now, it doesn't need to be perfect it just needs to be started and perfected later.
  2. Don't Stop - the second biggest thing people stopping people achieving is not completing a task. Work on 1 task at a time and don't start task 2 until task 1 is not only completed but successfully marketed and already making money for you. Splitting your focus is the best way to lose control of everything and complete nothing.
  3. Repeat and multiply - once something works (and starting and finishing it puts you well on the way to success) don't just do it once. Do the same thing again and again as if it was successful the first time it will be successful the next time. Make sure you multiply as well eg. if you marketing is successful on book 1 keep doing it but to be even more successful bring out book 2 and apply the same formula you used to create the first success to it and you will be twice as successful.
