Link exchange refers to the process of swapping hyperlinks with websites that are related to your website’s product or services. Relevant quality websites that place links to your website from theirs can increase your company’s PageRank which in turn can increase the number of visitors to your site, producing the potential for higher conversion rates (converting visitors into taking further action or completing sales transactions). Most of the main search engines analyze link popularity as a factor in determining the positioning of your site on the results pages.
Inadequate or poor link exchange programs can harm your site’s position on the search engine results pages. There are companies that offer and promise to automate your link exchange program, promising thousands of link exchanges. Some of these so called “link farms” can actually lower your rage rank by offering non-relevant links. Keep in mind -the goal is to drive qualified traffic to your site.
