LinkyLove - a review

LinkyLove serves two purposes as far as I can see. There is an element of service blog about this site as discussed in a previous post . The site is also packed with lots of valuable information for bloggers wanting to make money or simply raise their profile on the internet.

LinkyLove whilst in the business of building up lots of links through reviews like you would expect, also offers some really good advice, not only about linking but also about general SEO, Page Rank techniques and word-press plug-ins.

The site is neat and well-written, the information you find here is the kind of thing that every blogger is going to find useful – I strongly recommend visiting and even bookmarking this page. While you are there, why not swap reviews and increase the linky love?

Service Blog

Helping the Spiders find your site

I have noticed a growing trend for ‘service blogs’. Service blogs are basically rank- boosting blogs that provide links in return for reciprocal links. Many do this by reviewing your site and/or providing a link. In return, you may be required to review them or provide a link-back.

Why participate? Well you can boost your technorati rankings and maybe even improve your page-rank, and it costs nothing to take part.

The lastest ones I have come across are BlogBait and A Links Blog, my tip: pay them a visit, get your blog reviewed, get the benefit of the reciprocal linkings and watch your rankings climb. These work along the same lines as Greg Statz’s OurBlogReview . The majority of people who are authoring these blogs, have their own personal blogs, they have realised that having a service blog running alongside their regular blog can help not only their own rankings, but everyone that gets involved.
These sites may not be favoured by advertsising programmes or paid-to-blog schemes, but then, that is not what they are intended for. They are purely as the name suggests, a service to help promote those that get involved. One wonders whether the spidering web bots will one day become so dizzy following all these links, they’ll all end up stranded on someone blog somewhere?? They’re welcome to stop by here for a breather for as long as they like!
