The basic concept is simple - you link my site, I'll link yours and we'll both get an increase in traffic. I have exchanged many links in my web-based career.Reciprocal Links help you improve search engine ranking and generate more traffic to your site. The quality and quantity of reciprocal links with other web sites allows you to increase your link popularity.
Here are some tips from my experience ….
1) If you are at the beginning of promoting your site and want to see results soon, exchange links with popular and quality web sites. Don’t hesitate. Lots of popular web sites that are in another category of interest, maybe accept exchange link with you. It’s your decision …
2) Find the right site to do a Reciprocal Link Exchange These sites are normally in your website's category of interest, or sites that you feel your visitors might find interesting.
3) When you contact the webmaster of the other site, you should be kind. Tell him that you run a site that has a similar topic and describe your site a bit. Say that you like his site and have included a link to it in your site (give him the address of the page where the link is), then ask him to return the favour by linking to your site.
4) If you never get a reply or your proposal gets rejected, just forget it and find another site. Never be disappointed! There are a lot of webmasters who will exchange links with you.
5) Be patient! With hundreds of thousands of sites out there, it takes time and efforts to find and choose web sites for reciprocal links. Keep working.
6) If another webmaster asks you to exchange link, give an answer. If you deny, explain why. If you like the content of that web site then add the link. Every link is useful.
7) Prefer text links rather than graphics as this would be more search engine friendly.
8) Exchange as many Links as you can. Don’t be afraid to swap links with competitor websites. This is not going to hurt your business. World wide web is a huge area. Internet has space for everyone.
9) Don't remove your link without contacting the webmaster of the other site first. Some webmasters agree to exchange reciprocal links, add your link on their site and after a few days/weeks they remove it without noticing you. You should check the site of your partner every now to see if he's keeping his part of the deal. If he is not, contact the guy and kindly ask him to explain why your link has disappeared. If you don't get a satisfactory explanation, remove the link to his site from your site and find another partner.
Never forget …. The traffic that reciprocal links generate is FREE!!!
