Viral Linking

Every blogger is looking to improve their blog. Whether it is to improve their page rank, backlinks or readership, each blogger has a desire to make their blog better and more widely known. So, how do you accomplish this massive task in a world where there are millions, or billions of other sites? Try viral link exchange!

If your not sure if viral link exchange is a good idea or not, let me take a moment to explain what it is, how it works and what some of the benefits of viral linking are for your blog.

Viral linking is not a new idea to the blogosphere. You might even be saying to yourself what is the purpose of it. If you think about how your blog or site works, it is generally composed of content about a topic or product, and most of them have links of some type or another in each post.

Your links in each post point your reader to other areas of your blog, product pages for orders, or other sites for further information. Linking is good from the point that it helps to provide information and options to your readers.

Viral Linking works much the same way as any other post in your blog, with one exception. Generally when someone starts a viral link campaign, the purpose is to get coveted back links from other blogs pointed to them. Back links help to promote your blogs page rank, technorati score and improve readership by promoting your site to other readers that might not know if your blog.

So, I have read a viral link article, and decided to participate and see if I could get more traffic.

Here are the rules for this viral link campaign:

First Rule

If you are tagged, copy the links below and insert your site at the bottom of the list right under the last tagger to make sure you’re included in the succeeding tags.

Second Rule

Tag 5 bloggers from your list. Below are the links included in the tag, feel free to click on the sites that look interesting to you:

Third Rule

Provide 5 other blogs not already tagged for them to participate in the viral link exchange. Not everyone likes this type of thing, so don’t be mad if they don’t participate. One quick note on how to copy the other links provided. Just do a page view and copy the links over. I have modified mine to be in an unordered list.

Here are the blogs that I am tagging:

In Conclusion

I hope you enjoy viral linking.
