Bing stress Quality over Quantity

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

The major search engines have stressed over and over again about the importance of good quality links over a good quantity of links.

This is very important to rank high in the search engines – especially the big three – Google, Bing and Yahoo.

Although they do not say the quantity does not benefit at all and try and move aware from this. I am quite confident that having many low quality links as well as high quality ones is very important to rank high. This said, Link farms are a no no. Don’t submit your site to them as these can get you penalised in the search engins.

Link Builbing through social media

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Is it true that links from social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Google Buzz and the many hundred other ones count as quality backlinks to a website? No, this isn’t true.

The main reason why this is not true is because if it did matter, then each and every user of these social media would spam the heck out of these sites and start to link like crazy back to their hundred’s and thousands of sites a million times!

Yes, crazy as it may sound but it’s true.

Exception. If the backlink on Twitter comes from a very reputable user, then this may have positive effect on rankings!

All the major Search Engines take backlinks into account

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Many people are under the impression that only Google places relevance on backlinks whereas the other search engines such as Yahoo and Bing do not. This, as many of you will be aware is not true and all the three major search engines take backlinks into account.

However there is a difference between the search engines.

Google is known to place a lot more relevence on backlinks where as Bing is a little less and Yahoo are different.

Could this be the Key as to why Google is top of the list for search engines? Nah, I don’t think so because Bing is catching up quick, very quick!
