What do the search engines look for when it comes to ranking your site?
There are many signals that can affect your PR. Positives and negatives are how the search engines rank your site, for instance a negative signal could be your bounce rate (how long a visitor stays on your site) as opposed to a positive which would be back links from a trusted source on the web. There are many more determining factors. Among the better solutions to build links and trust is to comment on as many high profile blogs and social networks like Digg as you can, this will spread your influence as well as raise your online status. For commenting on blogs get yourself an alert system like comment sniper. Just configure your favorite blogs and as soon as any of them post a new article you will be amongst the first to know.
Another major point to consider when building links and authority with the search engines is longevity, It’s a pretty accepted criteria for search engines nowadays; This doesn’t mean that you can’t achieve results in the short term, as long as you stick to your goal and set out a daily schedule for building links. If you want shortcuts then unless you’re a wizard in Blackhat techniques, you will have to spend some money. It is possible to see some very good short term results if you pick out the right program, and it can be very cost effective. For serious webmasters there are of course many paid paths to take including PPC and CPC. With Adsense and many other advertising companies, the trick here is to fine tune your ad campaigns and budget effectively.
Long term traffic goals
It’s a fact if you want to get to the next level of success you will have to be in the mix for the long term. There will of course come a time once you achieve your desired traffic and trust level to slow down. If you look at some of the top dogs in blogging you can see that the tactics used is a long term goal of variation and improvisation along with a solid foundation for growth. You can also see how these top bloggers utilize their readers to drive the very purpose of the blog.
