Link Trading
Special consideration is given to link trade submissions but be sure to actually
include a link to 101 Newsletter Answers first.
We will want to view it and decide if your
site should be a Favorite Link. The procedure is the same as for one of the 101 Answers directories except that you need to include the
URL of the link page on your site that shows a link to 101 Newsletter Answers (see What We Need From You).
- The correct title of the website you are submitting
- A brief description of what it is about
- The site address (URL)
- The 101 Answers site it best seems
to fit (optional)
- The URL of the link to 101 Newsletter Answers (in the case of link trade submissions)
Type Link Submission in the Subject line and email this data to us at contact-us using the domain of the site it seems best
to fit (e.g. 101contentanswers.com preceded by an
ampersand).
What You Get From Us
Traffic
The number one return for you, of course, is traffic, and hopefully lots of it. We can't
guarantee how much, of course, because that depends on things like demand for your product or
service, the way your link is worded, and so on, but our
site traffic is certainly increasing in leaps and bounds. Why not capture some of it?.
Valuable Content
As a reciprocal Link Site (which means you have a link on your site to 101 Newsletter Answers and we reciprocate with a link on
one or more of our sites to yours), you benefit by being able to offer more quality content to
your visitors. Very few website visitors are aimlessly surfing but actually looking for specific
information. By trading links you get to add our 101 Newsletter Answers content to yours, so to speak, without having to
diversify your own efforts.
Visibility
If your site becomes a Favorite Link it gets displayed on 101 Newsletter Answers as well as being listed on one or
more of our other 101 Answers sites. Also, your
link remains in our link directory sending you traffic for as long as your site retains our
link. We never arbitrarily remove a Favorite Link no matter how much our sites might grow
or how busy they get.
Readymade Link Options
We have a number of links already made up to make it easy for you to choose an appropriate
one. Just go to a suitable 101 Answers site and
click on Linking Information in the main menu.
We judge the suitability of sites for inclusion in our link directories according to the
following criteria:
- Relevance – has data relating to newsletters, content, publishing, writing,
small business, or the Internet that might be of particular value to anyone involved with
newsletters.
- Usefulness – has unique or original data, or a useful and well
maintained collection of data sourced from elsewhere.
- Professionalism – has reasonably good grammar, correct spelling, sensible
layout, straight-forward navigation etc.
- Responsibility – does not include extreme views such as race, gender or
religious hate, nor a prevalence of foul language, gratuitous violence or pornography, nor
peddles tools, software etc that promote or encourage copyright infringements or
law-breaking of any kind.
Title
Preferably, the home page HTML Meta Tag, if done properly (<TITLE>Site
Name</TITLE>). Not a description. For example, if the title is 'Aunt Kath's Fruit
Pies', that is exactly what visitors will expect to see prominently displayed on the page after
clicking the link. All words in titles are usually capitalized. Avoid exclamation marks. Maximum
characters allowed, including spaces: 75.
Description
Once again, we prefer the Meta Tag, if done properly (<META NAME="Description"
CONTENT="Blah blah blah">). For example: "Delicious home-made pies baked the
traditional way using all natural ingredients. Overnight home deliveries a specialty." (but
do not include quotation marks). Capitalize only the first words of sentences and proper names.
No exclamation marks or 'funky' punctuation allowed. Maximum permissible characters, including
spaces: 200. We will truncate it if it's longer.
Site Address
Preferably, the URL (Internet address) of the default (Home) page. For example
http://www.yoursite.com or perhaps http://www.somehost.com/~auntkath (some hosts still use the
tilde to signify a site). You may indicate a specific page (such as
http://www.yoursite.com/pies) but this will only be acceptable if there is good reason for it.
Maximum number of characters to a URL: 255.
Our Link
To trade links, you need to put a link on your site that points to 101 Newsletter Answers . It must be reachable directly from the home page by
means of a pointer such as a menu item ('Links', for example). You then need to specify the page
on your site where the link to 101 Newsletter Answers appears. We will reciprocate with a link on one of our sites to yours, if your site is
deemed appropriate. Once approved, we undertake to keep your site listing displayed for as long
as you display ours, and not to remove it without informing you (provided the site's theme
remains the same and your contact address is current).
This undertaking applies no matter how busy our sites might become (and therefore, how much
traffic we might send you). Not only that but, if we deem your site to be particularly
appropriate in some way, we might elevate it to Favorite Link status and display it on
the 101 Newsletter Answers site as well.
