$500 - Immediate 60 minute linking and site assessment/evaluation by phone 
Overview:
I pick up the phone and call you right now (assuming I'm in the office), and provide a "no punches pulled" assessment of your site from a link building perspective. While we talk I'll personally study your site, use my linking analytics tools in real-time to see what needs to be done, and identify the good, bad, and ugly from a linking perspective.  I tell you exactly what I'd do to improve things if the site were mine.  Among the goals: evaluate content linking potentials that can be exploited, and tell you how to do so. No person on the planet knows how to do this better than I do.  It's what I've been doing for over a decade for sites large and small.

Matt Cutts, Google

Client Comment...
Your in-depth report, was in itself, more than worth the price of admission. We thought we knew a lot about linking, but your insights proved that we did not and I now know why Danny Sullivan recommended you to us above anyone else. And thank you for spending extra time with us. That was very much appreciated

Eric, spending the money to have you here for the day saved us ten times that amount in the long run. You helped us focus, taught us everything we needed to know about building links and publicity, and our competition wont know what hit them...Having you available for Instant Messaging in the weeks following the session was a bonus

My On-Site Link Buildng Training sessions give you a day long hands-on experience, perfecting your online linking and publicity tactics.  I teach you what you need to know --basic through extremely advanced-- about linking and online publicity. I train you on the same techniques I use for my clients. I create and give you link building and tracking tools you can use after we finish. I cut through all the linking rumors and inaccurate "expert" advice and maximize your investment in your site. And then I give you a private IM address to use to reach me, so I can answer questions and clarify anything that needs to be. That's a direct pipeline to me that nobody else gets.

Below are some of the topics I'll train you or your staff how to do:

Target Site Identification for Link Building and Publicity

  • Specific venues where you should be seeking links.  Hub sites. Authority sites. Topical directories and topical search engines
  • What to avoid when seeking links.  How to keep from alienating the search engines through inadvertent linking tactics
  • When it makes sense to pay for links, when it doesn't, AND WHY
Holistic Linking
  • How to see beyond your homepage and obtain deep links
  • Hidden linking opportunities that 99% of Web marketers miss
Links for Search Engines, Links for Publicity. The Content Announcement Strategies That Work
  • How to properly announce a web site or new content
  • How to maximize the effect of online press releases
  • How to get your site reviewed (and linked) by the right people
  • How anchor text affects the links that in turn affect your rankings
Findability Review / Link Architecture
  • Can the search engines find your links in the first place? You'd be surprised
  • Steps to take to encourage on-site link crawling and crawling on sites linking to your site. 
  • On site links 
  • Lost links reclamation
Tracking and Ongoing Techniques
  • I'll show you how to create a custom tracking tool so you'll know when you receive links and publicity.
  • I'll send you my private news alert detailing the linking trends and tactics that you need to be aware of
If you'd like to book me for a training date, please use my contact page to reach me.  If your budget doesn't permit an in person visit, I also offer phone based Linking Strategy Sessions, as well as my Link Building Boot Camp.
