21 Websites Every Webmaster Has Visited

There’s many websites out there that offer a great benefit to the website owners and each webmaster has visited each site at least once in there online career, if you haven’t visited these sites yet then I suggest you do. As we are in the search engine optimization and link building business some of these sites focus on that topic, but if you are a webmaster then these sites should interest you.

If we have missd any sites then just leave a comment, also feel free to link back to this page, all links are appreciated.

1.Google.com/webmasters/tools/
Google will provide you with information on your site which you then use to improve your website, its also a good place to check after doing any major changes to your site.

2.Google.com/adwords/
At some point in your online career I’m sure you have used a PPC campaign like google adwords, most website owners start off with google adwords as its a trustworthy place to start.

3.Google.com/adsense/
I know the first three sites are to do with google but again the majority of website owners have used adsense as they have heard stories about webmasters earning a living off of adsense alone.

4.Youtube.com/user/GoogleWebmasterHelp
You probably have visited youtube at some point but alot of users have watched one or two of Matt Cutts videos as they are up to date and relevant to webmasters.

5.Ezinearticles.com
Its a high pageranked article directory (pagerank 6) with a lot of high pageranked inner pages (ezinearticles.com/?cat=Internet-and-Businesses-Online) which uses the dofollow attribute and passes weight from its website to yours. Part of running and owning a website is promoting it and building links whilst promoting your site and its content.

6.Digg.com
This is a social bookmarking site and I’m sure you have used or visited a similar one like reddit, delicous or stumbleupon. These sites are a great way to promote your content and gain immediate traffic which could result in sales or inbound links.

7.Facebook.com
Lets face it if you don’t have a personal account you have a business account or page promoting your content, why? because its one of the biggest cattle fields online

8.Wordpress.com
Its the 17th most popular website on the Internet according to alexa.com, you probably have a blog somewhere which is run on the worlds most popular blogging platform.

9.Alexa.com
This is the ever popular traffic rank website which gives sites a rank based on the traffic they receive, it is also a subsidiary of amazon.com

10.Blogger.com
Some people start off on blogger before setting up there own blogs, others use it as a way of promotion to build a relevant link back to there site and share there content.

11.BBC.co.uk
News sites are important as they hold the information about important changes to search engines, whats happening in your niche, the economy. If you haven’t been on this particular news site then I’m sure you have been on another like Fox or CNN.

12.Ebay.co.uk
This one mainly applies to website owners who sell products, eBay is a great way to promote products, gain extra sales whilst building a name for yourself. When I list eBay items I make a donation to a charity through eBay giving me extra exposure.

13.Bing.com
This site is supposed to represent the search engines as a whole, everyone has used a search engine weather it google, yahoo, live or bing.

14.Paypal.com
Again this is one of the most popular money gateways, you probably would have used paypal at some or any of the other payment gateways.

15.Godaddy.com
This one is a bit of an obvious one, if you own a website then the chances are you registered the domain yourself and you would of used a company like godaddy.

16.Twitter.com
As soon as twitter hit the web people flocked to it and it has turned into one of the popular places to promote your content and build a following of loyal subscribers interested in what you have to say.

17.Alibaba.com
Again this one applies to users selling products, Alibaba is supposed to put you in contact with suppliers all round the world but from my experience most of the products listed are fakes or copies.

18. Wikipedia.com
Its the online encyclopedia of everything, it also tells you about reputable websites and is a good place to get your site listed. I have stumbled across this site and its resources many times when searching up topics online.

This website is a great social networking sites and any true professional will have themselves listed here or in similar places.

20. Aweber.com
E-mail marketing is an important tool for any online business as it helps drum up sales and exposure. Most website owners use aweber or a similar service as sending a large number of e-mails from your own server can have disadvantages.

Most online businesses use online banking as it saves a lot of time visiting the bank in person and is a great way to stay on top of your finances.

39 SEO Link Building Tips and Methods

There’s many great ways of building good quality inbound links, some of the easiest ways of building quality links is by simply writing good content that makes users want to mention it or rate it on the social bookmarking sites. Its a well known fact that links play the biggest part and help get your site to the top of page one in all the major search engines. I have added a list of the methods we use and if you find the content interesting then please link back to it or give us a thumbs up on one of the social bookmarking sites.

Link building will be around for a long time so you may as well use some of these tips to help build even more links to your site.

1. Write how to guides for topics in your niche, this is by far the most popular and easiest way to get people to naturally link back to you.

2. Publish a couple of good resource articles as again this is another popular item for people to naturally link to.

3. Use social bookmarking sites to spread your content, this method has been around for years but still holds a nice amount of weight.

4. Leave good quality relevant comments on authority blogs in your niche, this will help to build a name for yourself and get people clicking your link and viewing your site (possibly linking back to it).

5. Build huge lists of over 50 tips as these tend to get rated highly in the social bookmarking sites and is another great item for your users to naturally link back to or mention.

6. Write about myths or topics in your niche that haven’t been proven yet.

7. Create a list of authority websites or authors in your niche, this will show that you know what your talking about and may even get some of the authors or sites linking back to you. Its also another valuable list for your users to link back to.

8. Make sure your content is clear and easy to understand making it easier for your reader to spread the message.

9. Put some effort in to minimizing grammatical or spelling errors, especially if you need authoritative people to link to your site.

10. Include a picture of yourself and your team to seem more trustworthy, also include a privacy policy to help build trust.

11. Buy PPC traffic as you never know the users coming to your site might link back to your content.

12. Submit an article to the leading industry sites in your niche, for example if you are in the seo field like me you might want to submit your content to webpronews etc.

13. Trade articles with other blogs or websites in your niche, when contacting the webmaster be polite and friendly, make them see the benefits for both of you.

14. Email a few friends when you have important relevant news asking them for their feedback and/or if they would mind referencing it if they find your information useful.

15. This is an oldie but use directories, make sure you check them out and they are still considered to be “quality” like DMOZ.

16. Try find niche directories for your business as well as using standard directories, irrelevant links still pass weight on to your site.

17. Create your own directory for your niche and include your site and other authority sites in your niche.

18. Get involved on the social bookmarking sites by rating other peoples content and adding them as friends, this helps entice people into rating your content and following your link.

19. Forums are a great way to promote links and yourself, find topic related forums and get involved in the community by answering questions and adding your input to the conversations.

20. Look at trending websites like google trends and meme to see what people are talking about and then write original content on the matter, staying up to date with what you write about is a good way to make yourself an authority on that topic, also add links within your content to other sources.

21. Don’t be tight or afraid to give out link juice for free, sometimes it works in your favour.

22. Syndicate your rss feeds as this is also another great way to get people linking to your inner pages, unfortunately some display snippets of your content or your full content without link back but this is just part of the online world, the majority of people are honest and will include a link back to the original content.

23. Join the google business center and get your business listed there, this helps people find you and your content  easier.

24. If you sell products the get them included into google base as this helps boost exposure and sales, and I’m not just saying that.

25. Look for local websites or businesses in your area where you can swap links, most cities have there own online directories.

26. Put out a free ad in the local paper, this helps build exposure and links.

27. Press releases are also a great way to get exposure and links from, submit your newsworthy press releases to the big press releases sites like prlog or myfreepressrelease.

28. Use social networking sites like facebook and myspace, create a seperate account and page for your business, then search for users with interests in your business and promote your content to them.

29. Use sites like yahoo answers to answer questions on your topic and use your website as a source for information.

30. Wikipedia is a good place to get your site listed, but make sure you have a fairly clean reputation first.

31. This is another oldie but create a squidoo page, post interesting content and freebies whilst linking back to your site, this is another great place to make a name for yourself.

32. Another great way to get inbound links is to write reviews on similar products or tools in your niche, this gets people linking back to your site as a resource especially if you write a positive one.

33. If you have bought any products or tools then why not offer to leave a testimonial in return for a link.

34. Create a blog over at wordpress and blogger and use them to promote yourself and share information which will get people interested and click through your links.

35. You could also out source your link building services and hire a professional at a reasonable price.

36. Hold a contest.

37. Sue a major site like google, that’ll get you hundreds of thousands of links.

38. Give away website templates or tools with a link back to your site.

39. Offer free samples in exchange for links.

These are a few methods which will help you build links honestly, stay away from software as they often leave a fingerprint and usually build poor quality links.
