Local Links
Getting a link back from other local Hamilton websites, blogs or directories can help you rank better in Google.
But it’s not about getting links from just any website. Google has cracked down on spammy link building activities that many companies were using to increase their ranking. Google wants to see:
- Links from a variety of relevant sites
- Links with a variety of relevant words in the link.
- Links from a variety of types of sites (websites, social media, directories, blogs, etc).
- Links built up over time. (If a whole lot of links appear all at once, Google can be suspicious that you’re gaming the system and can penalise your site.)
- Links from pages that are important – a link from a powerful site in your niche is a lot more valuable than links from unknown sites.
For example, if you are a Hamilton plumbing company, try to get links from other Hamilton tradies, Hamilton business directories, general directories with “Plumber” as a category, or any plumbing related blog. If you can get a link from a website that has high domain authority that’s even better because higher the domain authority, the more power the link has and the more this helps with getting ranked higher in Google.
Building a large enough number of links from a wide variety of sites is next to impossible to do on your own. And it would certainly take away from your ability to focus your attention on your customers and building your business. That’s why we take care of it for you.
Once we have made the initial On-Page Optimisation changes to your site, we then start to build links to your site each week, and over time this tells Google and other search engines that your site is important. We work with a wide variety of quality sites to build content and links that point to your site. We focus on creating real, genuine links. (It is very important to stay well away from anything spammy or automated.) And our results speak for themselves.
Search engine results take months to build up, but are enormously beneficial for getting your perfect target market to your website.
