BlogRolling Amnesty Day - Feb. 1st thru Feb. 3rd  

0 comments

I got an Email last week from Jon Swift reminding me that this is the One Year Anniversary of Blog Amnesty Day .
I first learned of this from Jon and Skippy when I was so brand new to Blogging that I didn't even know what a Blog Roll was.
Blog Amnesty Day first came to life February 3, 2007 when Atrios, the proprietor of Eschaton, declared a Blogroll Amnesty Day.
This was a dark day in the 'Blogosphere'.
When I hear the word 'amnesty' I think of words like 'justice' and 'pardon' but in this case it would mean more of a sovereign act of unbiased kindness to do good.
Unfortunately this wasn't the case for this Day of Amnesty.
Instead, some of the big fish emptied their Blogrolls and this certainly wasn't a very benevolent or sovereign thing to do at all.
You may be saying OK Carol..so what?
What's this got to do with me?
Glad you asked.
It’s an honor to be in someone’s blogroll. It’s also a very big part of creating your blogging community.
Blogrolls link blogs to each other, creating their own network. It shows you’re a fan. It shows you like what they do. And it shows respect for other’s work. Consider a link in your blogroll as a brag not a request.
This year help us celebrate Blog Amnesty Day as it was meant to be.
If you Blogroll Me!, I will BlogRoll you.
Simply leave a comment here and I will be right on it!
Now go my Blogging friends and spread the word!

There are very few marketing methods, if any, that are more effective in generating huge traffic for a web site than relevant links from other web pages and blogs.
These links are the real secret for the huge success that many web sites and blogs have enjoyed for a long time.
This is because links tend to last for a long time, constantly sending targeted traffic to a site.
This is the reason why an effective web master has to constantly be thinking of ways and means of generating a constant flow of new links pointed at their site.
Actually everything they do should be done with the acquisition of links at the top of the list of objectives that is at the back of their minds.
There are actually many ways of generating these valuable links to a site.
This includes the writing of content that is effective in link-baiting or attracting links from other sites.
Usually such content will tend to be either controversial or based on a hot issue under discussion in the industry covered by the site.
Alternatively it could be a valuable resource useful to many and other sites will therefore tend to quickly link to the relevant page on your site.
Link-baiting content is capable of generating hundreds of links pointing to a site in a matter of hours.
The other effective way of acquiring these valuable links is by distributing some of the articles on your site to other article directories complete with a resource box that will have prominent links pointed at your site.
These links will tend to be complete with anchor text, which is also very important in helping a site gain better search engine rankings and therefore traffic.
The other very effective way to quickly accumulate links is by purchasing them.
The huge advantages with purchasing links include the fact that you can control the rate at which you acquire them and they will usually tend to be very high quality links that will win you regular traffic for years to come.
There is nothing that is as valuable as links pointing at your site from other relevant or related topic sites and blogs.
The traffic generated from such links will tend to be much more targeted than any traffic you receive from search engines.
In other words, the value of good, relevant links goes beyond search engine rankings and with the correct strategy on links, it will not matter too much what leading search engines do when you have a growing number of links generating healthy traffic to your site.
