Link Building this Week (17.2008)

Brian Turner published a few great posts during the past few weeks at InternetBusiness.co.uk, including one titled ‘Google was a links-driven search engine‘. This post not only shows a bit of Google’s history (and how links were -and still are- Google’s Achilles heel), but also shows Brian’s view on the future.

And also:

• Roger Montti explains that link building is as easy as tuning in, turning on and linking out
• Michael Martinez talked about the Mechanics of linking
• Jane Copland analyzed a very effective trafficbait (I wouldn’t call it a very effective linkbait yet…)
• The SEL LinkWeek Column (this week by Rae Hoffman) was titled Link development tool shortcuts for Firefox
• Jeffrey Smith wrote about Deep links & the power of anchor text

And a few recaps of the SBM & SMX:

• SBM Unleashed: Viral Marketing Workshop
• SMX Social: Linkbait- Chumming for Traffic
