Backlinks Are Good Enough to Scam for

As we all know, if you want to get free traffic to your
website you are going to need good quality backlinks.
As with everything else, there is a right way and a wrong
way to get them. So here are some tips that can help you
avoid being scammed on backlinks.

Con artist have developed some very sneaky way of getting
one way links to there site. For example, some will see
your email address and offer to trade links with you.
They start by showing you a link that they all ready gave
you on one of there pages praise your site. Then they ask
you if you would be so kind as to give them one in return.
So after seeing how nicely they asked and viewing the
glowing endorsement they gave you about your site you
decide to go ahead and give them a link back to their
site. Now you think everybody is happy and will benefit
from each others links. But will you?

After receiving your link several things can go wrong. One
thing could be that the con artist simply removes your link
creating a one way backlink for themselves. Another thing
could be that you never had a link at all from their website.
They simply created a separate page outside of their real
website so if you keep checking back you will see something
but if you check their website from the home page and search
each page your link is never found.

This can happen to anybody some make sure before you trade
links with someone that your link it can be found from the
home page and not just directly from that page they sent you.
also check back frequently to make sure that your link hasn't
been removed.

Another way they can rip off a link from you is to set up a
fake directory. They tell you that you can submit your site
to our directory for free backlinks and all you have to do is give us
a reciprocal link back to our site and you name and email
address. So you follow the steps they laid out for you to
submit your site and give them the information that they
ask for. Now you site back and hope that their directory
can bring you some traffic.

Guest what, that right no traffic. Why you ask, because
their directory is not real in the sense that no one is using
it except for the people who are submitting to it. But thanks
to your link that you gave them more people are submitting
to them and giving them links. Oh, by the way, remember
seeing that little message that says "We hate spam and your
email address will never be sold or give away by us" under
where you gave your email address? Well I hate to tell you
this but your email address will get sold and you will start
noticing a high amount of spam in your account.

So how do you know which directory to use? Simple, it all
about learning how do your research first. If you want to
submit to directories then start with the ones you trust
like Google or yahoo. After that, search on the web and
submit to the top directories found. If you start seeing
ads for directories that you never heard of and you still
what to submit to them then set up a separate email just
for thoughs directories and you won't have to deal with
the potential spam on your main email address. If you
can see which one is sending spam just remove the link
from your site.

Well that all for now. I hope this information has helped
you recognized a good link from a bad one. I hope that
you understand that you don't have to resort to dirty
tricks to get links to your site. Just be honest and
trustworthy and you will get the links needed to make your
site succeed.
