Linking Plans
A custom link building
blueprint researched and created specifically for your site by Eric Ward
Fee: $5,000
($3,500
due up front, with the balance of $1,500 due when reports are delivered
prior to our 2 hour private strategy call)
Does it work?
We
followed the strategy you created for our site and we were skeptical,
but the bottom line is we now rank first at all the engines for our most
important search terms, and the ranking has not decreased over the course
of several engine updates. Your link building strategy and services
are the only things we have done, so it's pretty obvious you know what
the hell you are doing. My one complaint? Answer your phone more
often!

Overview
My Content Linking Strategic
Plan for your site includes:
- Detailed link portfolio evaluation
of your site and others in your niche
- I research, identify, evaluate,
and create for you a private and 100% custom link marketing (building)
and publicity plan which targets high trust online venues that can be contacted
to generate awareness, links, and publicity for your content/site.
- The plan includes multiple
linking opportunities, from basic to highly vertical, to online public
relations and social link building. The Content Linking Plan takes over
where generic link building always fails.
- Two hours live by phone with
me to go over the reports and plan I've created, and to begin the link
seeking process. We will use live screen sharing during this call, which
will be recorded live and given to you.
Details
More about the Link Building
Blueprint, aka Content Linking Strategic Plan
My Link Building Blueprint
or Strategic Linking Plan is a complete link marketing approach for your
web content. I've been creating, executing and perfecting these plans since
1994. To the right are logos for some of the sites that have used
my Link Marketing Blueprints This is a small sample. I've created over
100.
Going Beyond The Basics
Publicity and links to your
site don't just come from other web sites.
While link building is important,
if all you do is request links from a bunch of other web sites, you are
missing many other important venues. I'll research and compile for
you a reviewed list of target venues that represent quality link targets
for your content, including...
High Trust Links - editorially
earned links are trusted and pure gold, but only from very specific online
places and respected editors. Not all sites are of the caliber that
they can acquire these links, but for those that are, my approach will
result in obtaining them. I know where they are, and I know how to
seek them properly.
Topically Relevant Links -
aka "Curated Hubs" within your niche, run by real people, not link farms
or reciprocal link clubs.
Quality Links - from subject
specific search engines that are a fit just for your site's content and
features. There are vertical search engines for hundreds of topics.
Over the years I've identified thousands across every imaginable topic.
Key Web Site Selector/Reviewers,
both obvious, like FORBES Best of the Web, and not obvious at all, like
this
perfect example. I have thousands of these "under the radar" targets
and contacts that will never appear in any public media directory, but
which are considered trustworthy by the search engines, and by me. Links
from these venues are high quality links that result in improved trust,
rank, and traffic for your content.
Blogs, Tweeters, Social Linkers,
Bookmarkers and Key Influencers. This is where link marketing and online
PR really come into play. There are bloggers out there who are passionate
about very specific topics, who can be approached (properly) to introduce
your content to. This is completely different than paid blog spam/reviews.
Example - one of my clients
was a large family magazine publisher that launched a web site dedicated
to Halloween costumes. I went out and found many Blogs
about Halloween. When I contacted those Blog owners and alerted
them to the new site, every single one of them linked to it. Repeat: Every
one of the Blogs linked to my client's Halloween site. These
links are not for engines and rankings, they are links seen by people in
the exact place they'd be most interested in them. While a rankings boost
can also takes place, it is not by design, it is the residual effect of
high merit content earning high merit links.
Private Online Groups that
are a topical match for your content and that regularly write about (and
link to) other sites. I know how properly identify and contact private
email and web based discussion groups that will accept links for quality
web content within their discussion group.
Online venues and email based
newsletters that announce and review Web sites (many libraries publish
these via email and the web).
How You Use the Linking Blueprint as a Road
Map
The link marketing plan is
your road map to alerting the right people about your site in such a way
that you earn new links as a result. I'll take the plan ansd
start that process for you, making the first 5-10 contacts. You then take
the plan and do it yourself, either on your own, or with some ongoing coaching
from me. You might also decide you want another proposal from me
to do all of it for you, as I've done for over a decade.
The approach I have just outlined
will result in a far better awareness building, publicity and link building
campaign than you will ever get by just listing yourself in some directories,
or sending an automated shot-gun press-release via PRweb or Businesswire.
My clients will confirm this. I've spent hour after hour, day after day
over many years perfecting what I do, and I know my stuff.
For me, the process of awareness
and link building for Web sites is not a task, but an art.

Eric
- the Content Publicity Plan was incredible and would have been worth twice
the price, and even that would have been less than a monthly retainer to
a PR firm. Thanks! - Law.com
