What is link popularity?
Link popularity is a term used to describe the effectiveness of relevant links to your site from other websites and vice-versa.

Why is link popularity important?
Outside links help dramatically to increase traffic to your site. Increased traffic can lead to higher page rank and better conversion rates. Many search engines take link popularity into consideration for your website’s page rank by “looking” at how many relevant links are directed to your website.

Relevant Links
Think of other relevant websites as your website’s closest friends. The more friends your website has, the more popular your website becomes. A link to your website is like having that friend recommend their visitor to also visit your site. It is equally as important for your website to recommend a site relevant to yours. Links that are not relevant to your site can clutter your site as well as the popularity of your site. Proper link placement will makes it easier for search engines to “find” the links. Finding relevant links can be accomplished through a link exchange campaign and placing instructions or a link to “submit your site” on your website.

Search engine advantages
Your website will have a search engine advantage if you practice proper link development and link promotion. Proper link promotion dramatically increase the number of quality web sites that link to you and will provide your web site with a steady stream of targeted visitors.
