The internet is this vast, nebulous cyber world where you can find anything you look for, whether it is information, products, services and often rather unmentionable things too. Everyone can slap up a website and pretty much do as he or she wishes. Yet statistics show that roughly eight out of every ten websites fail abysmally.

The reason for this is that they do not make sufficient money to stay viable. They do not make money because the do not attract enough site visitors in general. They specifically do not attract enough visitors in their target market because they do not practice optimal implementation of SEO. One of the red flag areas where they fail with SEO is the failure to build valuable back links.

Quality of back links

Too often people jump on the internet bandwagon without having educated themselves on the do and don’t factors of search engine optimisation. They simply see back links and run with that, no matter the value factor of back links. It is paramount to realise that each back link is seen as a vote by the big search engines. The quantity of back links is not the deciding factor; it is whether the back link is of any value.

A valuable back link is a vote of confidence in your website and a dodgy back link is a vote in the opposite direction. So having a few back links for high visibility and high status websites are extremely valuable. Back links from websites rated as unreliable, have spamming and duplicate content means danger to your website.

Responsible link building

Building quality back links is vital, but the word quality cannot be stressed enough. Random back links from totally unrelated websites are meaningless. These do not bring people in your target market to your website. You do not need literally millions of site visitors; you need site visitors in your target audience that will take action and be converted to clients.

It is not difficult to keep tracking where your back links come from. For any website owners who are worried about the value of websites linking to their own, there are tools to be utilised. Back link checking tools are brilliant for websites to see exactly who and what is linking to them.

Use the tools

No online business website can afford to have their back links kill their ratings. Using a back link checking tool allows you to trace those bad neighbourhood links and get rid of them. They are killing your traffic, your ranking and your business. You can have the best SEO practices possible. Allowing back links that drag you into the mud is the supreme website killer today. Too many people still do not realise that many of those dodgy back links send heaps of traffic to their websites that are not human, but simply bots. It is time people take back the internet to safeguard their businesses and not simply accept back links to create numbers. Work with your SEO consultant. Keep and eagle eye on those back links to give your website the chance to prosper.
