LET'S TALK
BUSINESS
Make Link Popularity Work For Your
Site
Search engines pave the way for obtaining information over the
Internet. For that reason links play a major role in whether or not
your website receives the attention it deserves.
Link popularity has to do with how search engines make the decision
to rank different websites. This can often make or break the success
of a site.
Google laid the groundwork for other search engines to follow. This
is primarily ranking to sites that have links to related information
from other worthwhile websites.
Keywords matter in regards to link popularity. The more often a
keyword is used the more difficult it makes it to obtain the end
result of link popularity.
It's not as simple as managing to link up with plenty of other
websites. Quality is your aim, not quantity. Link farms are
everywhere on the Internet but they only make your search for link
popularity a nightmare. Look past these awful "endless lines of link
pages" and continue your quest for exceptional quality.
It cannot be stressed enough- quality of a site must always be put
before quantity. Cast aside junk sites masquerading as sites of
worth and soldier on to higher peaks!
Now it is time to get down to business and look at what you need to
do to improve your website rankings.
What you need to do first is to get your site listed in a directory
that is popular. Yahoo or an Open Directory Project are two
excellent choices. If you have a business- oriented site Yahoo will
charge you approximately three hundred dollars a year but it is free
if your site deals with anything else. Open Directory lists sites
for free no matter what they pertain to.
Look to major categories such as national ones to list your website
in. Sure smaller sites are very nice but can they really help you
achieve your ends? Think big!
Are there many sites on the net that offer the same kind of
information and/or services as yours does? Invest some time in
finding out. Related sites are a valuable resource when it comes to
link popularity and that's what you need to find out.
Do your research first as not all sites have an interest in linking
up with others. Search out sites and see what they have to offer and
see whom they are linked to.
First things this, make nice with the other website. Before you do
another thing, link to their site and then kindly let them know.
This should start you down the path for a profitable linking
partnership in a business sense.
In your correspondence with your link partner remind him or her that
the linking will serve to help both of you as far as bringing
traffic to your site and hopefully leading to greater sales. Be
honest but not phony and be encouraging as well as supportive.
Now that you know how it is done, do the same thing with every
website that fits your particular criteria. Keep link popularity in
your mind at all times and remember to put your best foot forward!
Visit the search engines often to determine if your efforts are
paying off. Don't be too discouraged if progress is slow. Stay
focused!
One last point, make your website everything it can be in terms of
layout, color, information, etc. No one wants to visit (or link to)
a dull site. Make it shine!

INGREDIENT SUBSTITUTIONS
Continued from last week...
Flavor Oils
It is not recommended that you substitute flavor extracts for
flavor oils. Oil based flavorings are necessary for hard candies
because the liquid portion of the extracts add too much liquid,
causing steam, to the hard candy syrup.
Flour (as thickener)
1/2 tablespoon cornstarch, potato starch, rice starch, arrowroot
starch, or 1 tablespoon quick-cooking tapioca can be substituted for
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour.
Flour, Cake
1 cup minus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour can be substituted
for 1 cup cake flour.
Flour, Self-Rising
1 cup all-purpose flour plus 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and
1/2 teaspoon salt can be substituted for 1 cup self-rising flour.
