My guess is if you are reading this article you are not at the top of the search engines, but you are still hiding your links away and following the advice of the SEO world, and praying for that holy grail of a first page search engine placement.
Why webmasters hide their links is beyond me completely. What exactly are they scared of? That someone may leave their site and go to another site? I have news for you, t
Search Engine optimization is the process of maximizing and promoting your web site in such a way that it will come up in the search results, preferably the top ten search results for your preferred keywords.So what are the best ways to approach search engine optimization?I think that the 3 best ways to search engine optimization are:1) I think that getting backlinks is one of the most important things you can do for your search engine optimization. There are a few different ways to get backlinks to your web site. One of the ways is to swap links on your web site with other web masters with web sites that have similar themes.Another way to get backlinks is to use web directory submission. Literally submit your web site to the top 50 online web directories, and you will find your backlinks go way up.And the last way to get backlinks is that of writing articles and submitting them to the various online article directories. You must include a link to your web site in the articles for this method to work.2) The second way to search engine optimization is that of managing the content on your web site itself and your source code. I like to include my keyword phrase in the title, description, keywords tag, and naturally in the content. I like to use the keyword phrase early in the content, and la
As a webmaster myself I grew increasingly weary of hearing how "important" my links were in the eyes of a search engine. Now this may sound brave or stupid of me but believe me when I say it is neither. I could not give a FLYING HOOT how important Google, Yahoo, MSN or the "Gurus" think my sites are and I don't care what my PR is.
Am I completely nuts? Not at all, you see my sites have plenty of traffic without me needing to worry about search engines. Sure I can always use more who can't? But I am making a very good living and without a big advertising budget or spending hours and hours on SEO.
Why do I say that I don't care how important search engines think my sites are? Because in 6 years as a webmaster and webhost, Google, Yahoo or MSN have NEVER signed up for any of my mailing lists, they have NEVER bought a product from me and they have NEVER joined as a member of any of my sites.
The opinion that matters to me is the opinion of my visitors. It is PEOPLE who buy my products and services and not search engines. If they like my site they may even recommend it to their friends. That is what I care about!
It is nothing more than logical common sense therefore that if I want PEOPLE to visit my site I need to get links to my sites in front of REAL PEOPLE! Even Google themselves say "Build your site for visitors not search engines"
As webmasters we all need to stop the stinking linking thinking and focus on what the REAL value of a link is. This is not rocket science, links are valuable if they bring visitors period! One variable, one consideration it's really simple.
In the last few years with all the SEO hype and advice links directories have disappeared to the bottom of pages, featured only with tiny text links. Or worse they have been renamed "resources" or "partners" in the hope they will not be interesting to surfers.
What's the point in that? Come on think logically, again is Google bot going to sign up? NO! Is Google bot going to buy? NO! So what is the point in going to the time and effort of putting your link on another site if only a bot can find it?
Oh that's right! It will improve your search engine rankings and bring you thousands of visitors. WILL IT? Are you at the top of all the major search engines for several popular keywords and getting thousands of visitors a day from them? If you are congratulations! I hope you are still there when the search engines change their algorithms next month.

How much do you spend on travel expense (transportation, meals, lodging, etc.) for conferences, meetings, sales presentations, and training? How much of that expense would you like to save?With recent advances in PC and Internet technology, even small businesses can save large portions of their travel expenses. And those savings can start today.If doing business involves frequent meetings with small groups of co-workers, customers, prospects, or vendors, and if travel expenses are often part of the picture, then it's time for you to learn how you can cancel those expensive hotel reservations, tear up the plane tickets, and keep the car in the garage.Here's how: online conferencing. Yes, it's here, it's practical, it's secure, and it's very inexpensive.When you think of technology for meeting at a distance, you may be picturing special rooms equipped with tens of thousands of dollars worth of specialized teleconferencing equipment. That was the 20th-century solution. Some large corporations still use it. But the smaller, more nimble businesses of the 21st century choose online conferencing. It's easy and it requires no special equipment other than the PC, Internet connection, and web browser you already have.The new generation of online meeting tools let you meet whenever you want with anyone you wish.

In the traditional sales model, presentations are made in person at the client’s place of business. Today, however, rising fuel costs have translated into higher airfares and gasoline prices. As a result, the travel budgets of companies around the world are straining at the seams. Similarly, company executives are recognizing that traditional business travel consumes a significant amount of a salesperson’s time, thereby negatively impacting employee productivity. Both travel costs and a salesperson’s time increase the cost of on-site meetings, and represent resources that could be better leveraged to generate additional sales. As a result, businesses are increasingly seeking less expensive technological alternatives to on-site sales presentations. This paper explores computer desktop sharing solutions as a means of leveraging resources to drive sales success. Specifically, this paper addresses four questions: What is desktop sharing and how does it work? What are the benefits of desktop sharing? How can desktop sharing tools be used in sales? What features should an effective desktop sharing tool include? Although business travel and on-site sales presentations are sometimes necessary, many on-site pitches can be replaced by online presentations at a fraction of the cost. Effectiveness an

Many people when they sign up for a maid service are worried about things being stolen out of their home. Yet if you stop to think about it that scenario is highly unlikely because if this happened then the company could not survive and they would be run out of business due to negative word-of-mouth you see?Nevertheless this is one of those things that Maid Service Franchises have to deal with and unfortunately it is a false public perception that must be over come. This is why it makes sense for a public relations campaign, which includes joining the other side of the crime game and promoting participation in a Neighborhood Mobile Watch Program. Why? Well because it really will not cost them anything and consider the following reasons if you will;MERRY MAIDS FRANCHISEES: This maid service franchise is part of Service Master and also part of Tru-Green Chemlawn, American Home Inspections, and other residential and commercial service franchises. The Service Master Franchise system's original Founder, Marion Wade, was quite a great community spirited leader. Although the corporate culture has changed significantly, you find Merry Maids and Service Master franchisees as cooperative, helpful and committed. We have had success with them in the past and they tend to have many crews of cleaners throughout the town.Why not cap

Why webmasters hide their links is beyond me completely. What exactly are they scared of? That someone may leave their site and go to another site? I have news for you, that's what internet users do, they go from site to site it's how the web works.
I have more news for you, EVERY page of your site at the top right has a little "X" that will take people from your site. EVERY page of your site top left has a home button that will take people away from your site. And those two things you can do NOTHING about unless you are the creator of Internet Explorer, Firefox or all the other web browsers.
Wait! I have even more news, the one SURE THING about ALL visitors to your site is that they ARE leaving. I don't care how hot your site is, I don't care how great your product or service is. I am not staying on your site for ever and neither is anyone else not even you!
These days I personally choose (and believe me I learned this the hard way by giving up a lot of traffic to follow the advice of the SEO "Gurus") to put my links directory right there in my main page, and on EVERY page where it can be seen easily by my visitors. You see as people leave my site I do have a choice where to send them. By hiding my link section I would by default send ALL of them back to Google or Yahoo or what ever search engine they use. I choose to send SOME of them to other websites, websites who like me appreciate the free visitors and in return send me some of their departing visitors.
If you are hiding away your links make no mistake you ARE sending your departing visitors back to search engines. Search engines who give you NOTHING in return. Maybe you even pay them to advertise now that's sensible send them all your visitors free of charge and pay for some of theirs.
If you were to show your link section clearly, and I have a link on your site there is a good chance they may come to me instead. And IF you show your link section clearly I will certainly return that favor and send you some of my departing visitors.
How I get traffic to my sites is nothing new, it is not some "AMAZING new traffic system", it doesn't cost anything and it certainly doesn't require a lot of maintenance once set up. It is based on how the web has always worked, links and people.
That has never changed, my guess is you are just not utilizing that method any more. I made the same mistake and gave it up for a while too. By hiding your links you are reducing the number of visitors you get now, in the hope of thousands of visitors later. Personally I'd rather have 300 visitors a day from my links now than a "Maybe" of 20,000 a day some time i
