Sources Of Free Links For Credit Repair Companies
Getting you website to rank well for high traffic terms is not easy
, especially in financial services industries. According to SEOmoz's Search Engine Ranking Factors, three of the top 5 ranking factors are related to the links pointing to your website. Having a targeted (links with descriptive anchor text from websites in the financial service category) and diverse (links from multiple root domains) portfolio of links goes a long way towards maximizing your ranking.
The problem for credit repair companies, however, is that obtaining legitimate links is difficult. Because of the negative perceptions of the credit repair industry, few webmasters are willing to link to the websites of credit repair companies forcing many to try high-risk link building tactics such as purchasing links, purchasing sponsored blog posts, or resorting to blog and forum spamming.
For sites focused on long term success, these risky link building tactics are a scary proposition because they can result in animosity towards the brand from other webmasters and even worse, a rankings penalty from the search engines. While punishments are not a sure thing, and many companies seem to be able to run in violation of search engine guidelines with impunity, being one of the unlucky ones that do get penalized could take a credit repair company from profitability to irrelevance overnight.
Instead of relying on high risk link building methods, there are a number of community driven sites where you can earn targeted, followed links in exchange for your participation. Four such sites are listed below.
1) AOL Answers (aolanswers.com)
Recently converted to AOL Answers from Yedda, this site functions similarly to the wildly Yahoo! Answers except that when answering a question, you have the ability to include followed links with the anchor text of your choice. You can create a profile page with links to your site.
Standard spam prevention measures are in place to prevent abuse of the system, but as long as you take the time to provide good information that is of use to the askers on the site, AOL Answers can be a good source of links and traffic.
2) Credit Repair BEST (www.creditrepairbest.com)
Much like AOL Answers in premise, this site differs by having more hands on moderation and by being solely focused on credit repair topics. While the site is not as popular, this links you will receive are much more targeted.
3) Credit Repair Thoughts (www.creditrepairthoughts.org)
Credit Repair Thoughts is a standard Article Dashboard site that is focused on the credit repair industry and has been modified to provide authors with more SEO benefit when compared to other Article Dashboard sites. The site is diligent about approving only relevant, high quality articles so your links do not get watered down by thousands of spammy or poorly spun entries.
4) BloggercizeMe.com, MarsBlogger.com, Blog.com, etc.
Built using the WordPress MU publishing platform, these sites allow you to create your own Wordpress blogs on their domains. While not a substitute for having a blog on your own domain, creating mini-blogs (half a dozen posts) with links to your site helps you add links from a larger number of domains while still preserving the topical relevancy of the pages being linked from.
