		<description><![CDATA[In the late 90s, submitting your site to a search engine meant entering your site URL into the search engines where your site would then be crawled and indexed. Nowadays things are quite different.  Each search engine has its own "Webmaster Tools" section where they ask you to create and submit a dynamic sitemap telling them exactly what content you have on your site and how important it is. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Blog commenting and link building can help increase your backlinks and improve your website's overall popularity. This can help you rank higher for a Google search term. There are a few ways to create links.  A main one is commenting on blogs.  This allows you to capitalize on the popularity of someone else’s blog, and get even more links based on that popularity.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The idea of tracking backlinks is not a new one, but when backlinks first started to play a big role in rankings, there was not really a good way to track them. Now it has become easier, but the problem is that there are now almost too many options for this kind of tracking. It can make things very confusing for someone who's just getting started with SEO (Search Engine Optimization). ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Backlinks, or inbound links, are an essential building block in the SEO (Search Engine Optimization) process. Backlinks help search engines to establish a site’s popularity; however, simple inbound links are not enough to boost a site’s rank in SERPs (Search Engine Result Pages). Getting the highest quality backlinks is equally important.  Knowing the proper backlinking methods can help you to better utilize this essential SEO tool.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Backlinks are the inbound links to a website; each backlink indicates a vote from a third party (website). Maximizing the quantity and quality of your backlinks is crucial to search engine rankings.  We have shared many times with our readers through articles and throughout our website that content generation, based on extensive keyword research, onsite implementation and offsite syndication are the key SEO processes involved towards generating the highest quality and quantity of backlinks.  A strong commitment to constantly updated new content is essential to make this all work.  It is also very important to monitor / analyze backlinks … yours and those of your competition.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When you set up a web presence, one of the things you want to do is start getting backlinks. They help your search engine ranking, and the more places that link to you, the more people can find you. However, not all backlinks are good ones. There are plenty of places where people can trade backlinks or buy backlinks, and a lot of those places just offer spam. Link farms are examples of places you don't want to find your site listed.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tracking backlinks is important, but you also want to track their growth. Why? Because you want to keep moving forward, and you can't do that if you don't keep getting more backlinks. It's important to remember to keep expanding your web presence and your business endeavors, even if you seem to be doing well in the present.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Link building is the most important element towards achieving great search engine rankings for your targeted keywords. While you can purchase backlinks and you can create Backlinks just by registering with online directories, the best Backlinks are those that are highly relevant, targeted on just one or two keywords and are naturally occurring.  These Backlinks score the most points with Google et al.  Content is the main fuel needed to actually attract and secure these Backlinks ultimately building your way to an impressive quantity and quality of links pointing directly into your site. So let’s review some basic forms of content and how you can use the content to build links.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just as friends are important to your authority (influence) on Facebook, and followers are important to your authority on Twitter, Backlinks are important to your website’s authority within search engines. Backlinks are inbound links originating outside of your website to pages within your website.  However, not all Backlinks are created equal; Google et al value Backlinks differently based on how they are achieved and the source of the link itself.  You can purchase Backlinks.  You can register your URL on thousands of Directory sites … this will create Backlinks but it will score few points with the search engines as they are not highly valued.  The most highly valued Backlinks are driven by great content that is adopted or linked to by high value websites.  High value websites include those websites that have high Google PageRank (PR).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Link building is an essential part of any Search Engine Optimization plan to boost your website's position on Google, Bing, and Yahoo! Unfortunately, it is also the technique that is most frequently done incorrectly by people who are new to SEO and all too-often ignored or avoided by SEO companies doing poor work and generating poor results. While link building is one of the strongest SEO techniques, it does need to be done right. Building links ineffectively will only waste your time and effort because it will do little to improve your ranks.]]></description>
