Catholic Link Exchange - Reciprocal Linking with Catholics

Introduction

Important also in web development is to engage in link exchange or reciprocal linking. To develop a high quality Catholic web site, we need to link together through a Catholic link exchange program that will have reciprocal benefits for both our Catholic web sites. Interested Catholic web site owners who wish to improve their rankings on the search engines can link with other Catholics who have similar and related content in their sites. The search engines index sites by following all the hyperlinks that are interlinked throughout the Web. Therefore the more links a Catholic web site owner has incoming to his web site, the more the search engine robots can visit and revisit his site, and index any new web page that he has published on the site.

Catholic link exchange strategies

There are two link exchange strategies that a Catholic web site owner can engage in: first, by obtaining one-way inbound links in exchange for an article written for another Catholic web site owner; and second, through reciprocal linking - in which each site owner places in the resource links directory, the domain or home page of his site's link partner.

One-way inbound links in exchange for a Catholic article

If a Catholic web site owner would want additional quality content for his Catholic web site, he can obtain this through other Catholic web content developers. In this link exchange strategy, the Catholic web site owner who can write free content for other site owners, can get in exchange for his Catholic article, an inbound link to his domain or home page.

Reciprocal linking - Reciprocating a link made

In this Catholic link exchange strategy, we need to set-up a web page were we can state the guidelines for someone interested in link exchange to follow - guidelines where he can write in a email form the Title, URL, and Brief description of his Catholic site, and then give the information where he has placed the link of his Catholic web site. Our Catholic web site will then reciprocate this offer of link exchange by getting also the Site title, URL, and Brief description of the interested Catholic web site owner and place it in our resource links page.

Quality Catholic link exchange policy

So that our Catholic web site development is founded on ethical and quality standards given by the Web, it would be to our advantage to follow the policy of exchanging links with Catholic web sites who have similar themes with our own site - especially when they also use the same Catholic key words and key phrases to develop their own Catholic web sites. If we stick well to this standard policy, even if we only obtain a few link partners, as long as the quality of the links is good, then we have achieved a good and solid foundation for Catholic link exchange on the Web.

Google's guide for link exchange

Google publishes in one of its Webmaster Tools pages, a list of guidelines suggesting ways to legitimately obtain link popularity through link exchange. One important warning Google gives is: "Don't participate in link schemes designed to increase your site's ranking or PageRank." In the past year (2008), there was a trend some web site owners engaged in, that departed from the standard of reciprocal linking. They operated by engaging in three-way or triangular link exchange. This is too complex a process to understand; it is difficult to figure out how PageRank (Google's trademark for the importance of a web page), is optimally shared, exchanged, or increased. For link exchange systems that are not according to the two systems we have mentioned above, it would be good to be wary and cautious of them, and also to mention in our own Catholic link exchange program page, that we only engage in two-way link exchange procedures. This way, we can avoid linking schemes that may harm our web site's credibility with the search engines.
