Magic Of External Links
August 17th, 2008 | by Ankit |In late 90’s webmasters were scared about linking to external websites, Some of the common myths were:
- According to the PageRank formula, External Links will harm the existing PageRank of a Page/Website.
- Visitors might leave and will never come back.
How External Link can benefit ?
- Your domain will appear in the referral analytics of the site you are linking, inviting site owners (Atleast this is what I do.) to check out your site.
- Yes, External links are looked from search engines and if its really good then you will be rewarded for that :-). (like: HITS)
- What I can see, There are many bloggers who love to link you if you are linking them.
- Remember, A site’s outlinks can be used as a good predictor of a domain’s relative trustworthiness.
- External Links are always helpful in getting your users some additional information.
- Linking out will never result in loss of visitor for your website, If your website is gud enuff they will come back with simply hitting the back button or simply writing your website url in the address bar.
