Monitor how many links you’re generating

It’s important to monitor how many links you’re generating because you can cross-reference that information against improvements in ranking to estimate how much effort your SEO push is going to take. e.g. If you generate 300 links and your site goes from number 150 to number 15, you know that you should be topping the rankings before too long. If, on the other hand, your ranking has only marginally increased, you know you need to work a lot harder.

You can monitor how many links you’re generating in a number of ways:

• Search Google for “www.imtiaztips.t35.com”. Google will then display a screen which says, “Google can show you the following information for this URL:” At the bottom of the list of option is “Find web pages that contain the term ” www.imtiaztips.t35.com “”. Click on this option. Google will display all the pages it can find that have “www.imtiaztips.t35.com” on one of their pages. Normally this indicates a link to your site. (TIP: Bookmark the search results page so you can perform this search quickly and easily as you will probably find yourself doing it quite often.)

• Go to http://www.marketleap.com/publinkpop/ and type in your domain name. This tool itemizes your links by search engine (i.e. tells you how many links each search engine has found) and also provides graphical trends.

• Go to http://www.alexa.com and type in your domain name, then click ‘Sites Linking  in’ from the left of the page. (TIP: Alexa can also be used to track your ranking metrics.) 

Monitor who’s linking to your site
Always keep track of who’s linking to your site. Apart from simply being interesting, it will give you some idea of who is interested in your site and your material, you can assess their importance (PR), and also more accurately target their needs with future link generation tactics. Probably the easiest way to track who’s linking to your site is to set up a Google Monitor at http://www.google.com/alerts . Google alerts notify you when your URL has been published on a web page.
