Sharing Links with Others
Linking out to other sites can help you grow your blog. Although you are essentially helping other sites, posts that contain links without too much original content can be some of your most popular.
Essentially, you are helping both your readers and the other blog. In turn, you might get links back from the linked-to blogs, and this will end up helping your blog, too.
There are several ways to link out to other sites, and I will be sharing the best methods for doing this, in order to make the most of these posts.
– Create an entire post for the links.
– Insert the links through your RSS subscription, making it a “service” for those who have subscribed to your feed.
– Create an in-depth reviews of the posts/sites that you have linked to. This is the preferred method, as you are actually providing new content to your readers.
Remember that you have to link out in moderation, just like anything else you do on your site. You don’t want to “overlink” to your readers, or post too many posts with just links. Readers would rather see valuable resources and content posted.
What are your thoughts about linking out to other sites and the best ways to share links?
