Outbound Links Are Good for You – And Others

Posted: 27 May 2011 10:00 AM PDT

Outbound Links are Bridges Between IslandsLinking is what holds the fabric of the Web together. Without links between web pages, and between websites, the Web would be nothing but a lot of isolated islands. It would be much harder for people or search engines to discover new sites.

We tell you all about the value of outbound links for your website in our new article, Why Outbound Links Matter. Even though they don’t directly affect your site’s search engine optimization (SEO) the same way inbound links or elements like page titles and alt text do, outbound links can demonstrate your good citizenship on the Web, earn you more notice and even more inbound links.

For your viewing pleasure – and possibly, saving you a bit of time – Why Outbound Links Matter also contains a short video explaining the high points. You can see our growing collection of SEO videos on our YouTube channel and on their own page in the Learn section of AboutUs.org.

Analyze your site's outbound links with the AboutUs Site Report.Our Learn section offers you more than 100 articles on a wide range of SEO and Internet marketing topics. It’s part of our package of free and paid products and services for helping business owners drive a stronger Web presence, and more traffic to their websites.

Among our services is the newly launched AboutUs Site Report. It tells you all about the most important elements on your site for boosting its presence in search engine results. It also tells you which other websites you link to from your site, so you can figure out whether you’re still linking where you think you are.
