How many keyphrases do you use to attract traffic?
Let ed-u.com generate 1,000 relevant keyphrases including their commonly misspelled versions for your site. All keyphrases will be ready for use in your site's META tags or submission to the pay-per-click directories within one week.
We have vast experience in this field (we attract several million visitors a year to our sites with this method) and have been successful in creating substantial (and sustainable) revenue for many other sites. We will also write a professional, creative description and title for your site that will help to increase your click-through traffic.
We will research your business inside out - on-line and off-line! You will be amazed at the important keyphrases that you have missed. Take the worst scenario: If only one person per year visits your web-site as a result of one keyword or keyphrase - and you have thousands of similar terms in place - that alone represents thousands of visitors per year. Now imagine how many visitors you would get from the hundreds of keywords or keyphrases that attracted hundreds of click-throughs. Most sites can expect thousands of clickthroughs from just the one keyword or keyphrase!
For US$1390 / UK£999 ed-u.com will generate 1,000 relevant keyphrases including their commonly misspelled versions for your site.

Increase Traffic to your Web-site - Traffic Tips and Secrets...
We invite you to add ed-u.com to your list of favorites/bookmarks. Internet Explorer users please click here, and others, right click here -> ed-u.com. Also, you can learn how to make any ed-u.com page your start page by clicking here.
One link from a well-known quality web-site is often more effective than several links from low traffic sites with few external links. It is probably better to form reciprocal links with
a complimentary site rather than a competitor, although many sites achieve success with both methods.
When the spider of Google.com, one of the world's busiest search engines, visits you, it will not index your site until you have at least one other site linking to it. A spider is a small software program that visits servers (machines that store the web-sites) and automatically requests documents from them for indexing.
Route 2:
Route 3:
Route 4:
Some webmasters go one step further and create a whole page or even section dedicated to the other site in order to assure a link back. This is of course only really worthwhile if you are targeting a high traffic site for your reciprocal link or have permission to use their content for free. If you click here you will see an example of how I use Pupiline's excellent content. It not only acts as leverage for a reciprocal link, but as a relevant high quality addition to ed-u.com.
If links to other sites seem inappropriate to your main pages, then create a "friends" or "alliances" page to list them on. List the page on their site that includes your link. When the search engines crawl through your site they will not only index you, but also index your allied sites. The more people who see these pages with your link on it, the more will click on your link and visit you.
Some of ed-u.com's (and its sister site Highstreetcentral.com's) best advertisers are in fact its competitors. The internet is such a huge place that there's room enough for all of us to work together without treading on each other's toes too often.
Cooperation with your competitors to create efficiencies, close capability gaps and cut costs is an attractive path for some companies, but remember, fundamental offline business principles still apply. Collusion to fix prices is likely to be spotted by other competitors and you risk being reported to your country's trade commission.
Some webmasters would not thank you for this, because it may interfere with their own promotion regime. These webmasters believe that certain search engines penalize multiple submissions of the same URL on the same day. Many others believe that the majority of search engines have stopped this practice in response to unscrupulous webmasters spamming them with their competitors URLs (Uniform Resource Locators / web addresses) in attempts to get them banned. The search engines had no way of knowing which were legitimate requests and which were not, and innocent sites were being punished unfairly resulting in numerous complaints.
Many webmasters are willing to take the chance for you to promote their site for free. Send an e-mail to the referrer, thank them for their link, and ask if they are happy that you add their URL to your
list of regular submissions. I have been asking permission to do this for many years now and invariably receive a positive response.
Let your referrers know that web sites get dropped from search engines as a result of servers being down, unreliability of the server that hosts the site, timed out operations, software bugs etc. Tell them that this not only makes regular submissions essential, but it also serves to maintain up to date indexing of the content of their site. This will help them appreciate the importance of what you are doing for them and will encourage them to keep your link on their site for the long term.
Their success is your success. The more people who see their page with your link on it, the more people will visit your site. It really is a win-win situation.
On your virtual travels, you should also sign (place a comment in) every guestbook that you come across and include your web-site URL address with your signature.
You could also suggest that they link to you using a code that opens up your site in a new window when their visitor clicks on your link. You could explain to them that when their visitor finishes looking at that window and closes it, their original page will still be there in the background. This gives their visitor the opportunity to remain on their site for longer, therefore increasing the chances of them winning a sale.

Sleeping with the enemy
Links from other web-sites to your site are extremely important; you should trade links with as many sites as possible. Some search engines take link popularity into consideration when ranking sites (page as well as site level, and quality of link as well as quantity.)
Building the spider's web
If the hyper-links on other sites that point to you contain your important key-phrases, this will also help your ranking in search engines. If the spider finds other sites that are listing your hyper-link using a particular key-phrase - and that key-phrase matches the content of your site - then this is more likely to return a relevant result for the searcher.
Reciprocal links and identifying potential alliances
Route 1:
If a web-site is near the top of the results list, then it's a fair bet that they are attracting a decent amount of traffic. If you add them to your site before you ask for a reciprocal link, it will increase your chances of success.
See who your competitors are already sleeping with
If you come across a public statistics button on a web-site similar to yours, click on it to investigate which sites are supplying the most traffic. Ask these sites to trade links with you. Pooling resources
Some of your competitors might even be interested in building an alliance with you to help with traffic or fulfilment. Some may share content, marketing tips, trade leads or even partner with you to offer package deals. Certain businesses might foresee conflicts of interest arising from such partnerships, others see it as an opportunity for specialism.
Find the sites that already link to you
Check your referral statistics or type your web address or a phrase peculiar to your site into the search boxes at all the major portals to find the sites that already link to you and include them on your "friends" or "alliances" page. Be aware that if you have a LOT of linked traffic, your search for these sites might be timed out during high traffic periods and the full list of your linked sites may be truncated. Try again at an off-peak time.
Submitting other webmasters' pages
If you find your link on another site's webpage, you might be tempted to submit that page as well as your own to the search engines. After all, the traffic which that webpage receives correlates to the percentage of people that click on your link on that page.
...and future linking
In the future when you ask other sites for reciprocal links, always ask if you can add their sites to your submission database. This will be seen as a benefit by most webmasters and you will stand a better chance of forming the alliance. I would say only about 1 in 100 of my reciprocal links have said
yes please, we want a reciprocal link, but no thank you to submissions.
Flattery gets you everywhere
If you find sites that you really like, offer testimonials that the owners can use on their sites. Ask the webmaster to link back to your site from the testimonial.
Are you the master of your own domain?
Rankings based on reciprocal link popularity may suffer if you use a subdomain (www.yourURL.freeserve.com). The major ISPs, such as Freeserve, who use these type of subdomains, would be unlikely to be included in ranking criteria. Although Freeserve is one of the most popular web-sites on the internet it would be improbable for all of its free space customers to benefit from its overall popularity. Visit domain name generator sites for advice about finding a suitable (and lawful) domain name for your web-site.
Please feel free to copy and edit the reciprocal link request letter below:
I would suggest you take the time to visit the other site's contact/about us page to find out the name of the webmaster. This will help to increase the chances of a positive response.
