ability to change those links, Sites that have PR and cover our choice
topic ....
Enter the Free Hosting Sites
One of the easiest and most often overlooked resources on the net today
are the free hosting companies. Free hosting companies make money by
upgrading accounts into paying accounts or selling services to you.
One of the huge advantages to a free hosted account and your SEO efforts
is that search engines are more and more looking at the number of unique
inbound one way links that are pointing to your website.
So what is a aspiring SEO junkie to do? Well luckilymy link addicted
friend there is an answer..FREEand ME rhyme for a good reason. There
are 100's if not 1000's of free hosting companies dying to give you 50 -
100 MB accounts for your email address. I am going to give you a step by
step way of building as many inbound links as your little (or big) SEO
heart desires.
Step 1: Find the Freebies!
Fisrt start by going to our friends the searchengines and search for
"free web hosting", "free web site" or any otherpermutation of the free
hosting terminology.
Here are a few to get started:
http://www.topfreewebhosting.com, http://www.fateback.com and
http://www.50m.com
Step 2: Get Ready to Track
With so mayny free hosting companies in existance it will be a challenge
to keep track of all the data, so we will use our friend excel to help
us along. Make a handy dandy spreadsheet of all the sites you find. On
this spreadsheet have the following columns "Name" "URL""Login Page"
"My Username" "My Password" "My URL""Content Type".
Step 3: Decide the content Type and Get It
After you have cataloged all of your prosepects wewill need to creat
content, luckily this is the easy part as there are 1000's of articles
out there free for the copying (as long as you mention the author). So,
choose a topis that is relevant to your website andgo forth and
copy...
Step 4: Sign up and Publish
Ok so we now have where we will get hosting, we have the content and a
way to track it all...YAY! So what we need to do now is getstarted.
Now, the real trick is getting your pieces of real estate and not being
marketed to death. Setup a Yahoo, MSN or GMail account(if you can) to
use for registering all of these accounts. Once you get your free email
account, head to number one on your list and get registered, make sure
you doucument all of your infomrationas it will make your life that
much easier in the long run.
Lets talk briefly about registering. When signing upyou will usually
need to create a "Sub Domain", this will be XYZ.whatever.com. Try and
find a Sub Domain that matchec the type of contentyou will be creating.
So lets say you are making content about Real Estate,so you would try
to include that keyword "Real Estate" in your Sub Domain (ie.
realestate1.whatever.com.
After you have signed up it is time to publish. Using thierfree website
builder or your favorite tool, create a 4 - 10 page site (using your
articles and a home page). On each article look for keywords that are
relevant to your site and hotlink each page at least once to your site
that you are SEO'ing. Or, go the cheap route andcreate a footer link to
your site (bah that's too easy and does not look very natural:P )
Well you get the picture :) Rinse and Repetethis process as many times
as your heart desieres and we are now started.
Step 5: Getting Indexed
So, we took all this time to create 1 Million (ok alittle less) itty
bitty micro sites, now what? Well you need to get the Search Engines to
actually notice you..right?So lets go over 2 proven methods of
achieving this goal.
Method 1. - Submit and wait...pretty easy method,submit your site to
the crawlers and wait for them to come along.
Or if you are focusing on Google, hook up each site with AdSenseand
submit the site (this is unproven, but has worked for me)
Method 2. - Create the inevitable Link Chain (or PR chain I like to call
it)
This is actually slightly complicated, but with our handy dandy
spreadsheet, should not be too hard. First we will assume you have a
site, If not go buy a link to get started :P. Eitherway we need to
point a link at at least one, if not 3, of our freehosted account to
get the link ball rolling.
After we have pointed a link at one site, we need to expand our chain of
links. So our next step is on this taget domain is tolink from the home
page to 2 or 3 of our other free hosted domains. The important factors
here are to not link back and forth within the free hosted accounts but
to link one to another one way only, and not do it in large noticable
quantities. The best method of this is to actually enbedthe links
within the text of articles.
Now, if done correctly you will never trip an algoalert because or a
few factors.
1. We are linking to sites not owned by you or on the same IP address.
2. The content of each site you link to should not have any of the same
content (so no duplicate content filter trip)
3. Each site will have up to 10 pages but not less than 3 (so it is not
a link page only)
So to recap What exatly have we done? We have createdmicro sites that
have good content, and is on topic to what we do. Wehave created a
possile income source with adsenseon our micro sites and we have
assited our SEO efforts at no cost except for time.
