Co-Citation - and SEO

Okay, apparently getting backlinks to your website is not the "be all, end all" it use to be. For some time the prevailing thought was to get the search engines attention - to show them your worth - you had to get massive amounts of backlinks. However, it seems backlinks won't get you where you want to be . . . there's more to it.

Enter - Co-Citation. I won't pretend to understand completely, but Jim Boykin's Internet Marketing Blog seems to have a handle on it and has a marvelous explanation of the whole thing.

As you've probably noticed, there are groups of marketers who all market similar products or maybe I should say complementary products. They'll each refer customers to each other and will all benefit from the association. And this is a natural thing and search engines recognize this. If you are a quality site - a site which provides value to the web and those searching the web, you will have people in your business or in businesses complementary to your business linking to you.

This is what Google and the other search engines are looking for. Natural linking. For a great (read better than mine) explanation of Co-Citation, check out Jim Boykin's Internet Marketing Blog.

Of course getting great backlinks is not all there is to SEO, it is a piece of the puzzle and the info on Co-Citations is great information to have.

Until next time . . .

Digging your way out of Googles Sandbox

Many have debated it’s existence, but if you’re in business on the web and your site is less than three years old . . . you’ve probably been a victim of it. I’m of course referring to the infamous ‘Sandbox’. Google’s way of say, “I won’t trust you until I can see you are trusted by your traffic . . . but of course you don’t have any traffic because Google doesn’t trust you. Ahrrg!

Andy Hagans of the Link Building Blog gives us the Secrets to Beating the Sandbox 2.0 Revealed. The self proclaimed "Organic-Is-My-Middle-Name" Hagans gives practical advice to help you dig (or maybe Digg) you’re way out of the Sandbox.

Andy writes: “The sandbox is no longer the pink elephant in the room. As webmasters, together we've cried about it, argued about it, and fretted over it. We've gone through the emotional steps, too; first there was grief (waah waah my site won't rank), then bargaining (I promise I won't spam if you un-sandbox me), anger (darn it, greedy Google just wants me to spend more at AdWords!), and finally, acceptance (OK, how do I beat it?).”

Andy gives information to first decide if you're in the box and ideas of why you're there and then gives suggestions of ways to get out of the box. His suggestions are complete with linking strategies to help you gain the trust of Google. Great information to have.

Until next time . . .
