Re: [uk-netmarketing] Link Popularity

[Alex Bainbridge]

The question is why do you want link popularity in the first place?


Right now it is very important for several search engines (although the

actual text of the link that they use is more important).


Therefore if it is for tracking links for this purpose you have to use each

search engine - they each have a system of looking for incoming links to

your site. (or individual pages).


I find that links are great for helping in search engines - but fairly poor

at providing new "users" through the actual link - same as the discussion

regarding the USA president (other thread in this forum)
