I blogged about checking outbound links before where you can the tools and operators to do that.
But I only mentioned this because of how you can check for reciprocal links.
Here are a few more ideas why checking your website’s outbound links here and there can be very useful:
1. Check for spammy outbound links
You might think that you have full control of the links from your website but that’s not always the case. Read more
Two Outsourcing Tips For Getting High Quality Content
If you’ve been using freelancers for outsourcing content, you’ve definitely had your share of poorly written articles that you received.
Here are two quick outsourcing tips to help you minimize the amount of poor quality articles and get much higher quality content written.
1. When using freelancer.com, create a project big enough so that you can select “Very small project” where bids are between $250 and $750.

Ready, Aim, … Ready, Aim, … Well, Fire Already!
When you’re starting your first online business with a website, you should do careful research with the tools available (overall demand and competition of your main keywords).
But you can also overdo it.
The problem with decisions at the beginning is that you have NO experience. All your potential decisions are based on a theory and you KNOW that you really DON’T KNOW what works and what doesn’t.
So you don’t really trust any of your decisions. Read more
The Key To Gaining Organic Links – It’s Not Only Quality Content!
The sweetest links are organic links. These are the types of links that happen without your direct effort – it simply means that someone has linked to your site or page because they liked it.
If you agree with the above statement, then notice the word LIKE.
Someone must like your site to link to it. Of course, they can simply like the content – it can simply be just very useful like the Wikipedia type of content where there’s mostly massive amounts of text on the page and very few (or none) other elements (pictures, graphics, videos, forms, etc.).
These types of sites do get organic links but they must really have an authority status and be well known to get them.
Most other sites get links from fellow webmasters and bloggers because they like the content AND they like the looks of the site.

Why You Should Do Stuff On Your Own
I got a few emails from a friend asking me for example whether it’s ok to link from T2 and T3 pages to other people, whether he should use that link above the fold or below the fold (which I all answered) and then he also asked me:
“thanks Tomaz, when you send out emails for link exchanges, is your subject line: regarding link exchange and what is your version of value exchanges email?”
I personally think that asking for such specific examples is just too much. Here’s my reply:
Don’t you think you could come up with something that would eventually work? Do you really feel satisfied and fulfilled by copying EVERYTHING?
I don’t have an exact email because I come up with something. I don’t have a copy / paste system neither for the email and neither for the subject line. Read more
5 Myths About Google Penalization
There are all sorts of penalization myths going around and I thought I’d share my views about them. Just using the word “myths” should give you the first hint what they really are.
Here are the most common myths of why Google and other search engines might penalize your site:
1.Will Google penalize me if I link to non-related sites?
No, unless you link to porn or sites that spread malware and other crap. The Internet is a World Wide Web which means that websites interlink with each other in many different ways.
If you write about your topic you’ll link most of the times to sites that are related to your topic – since you want your visitors to learn more. Read more
Benefited From FreedomIdeas.com? Here’s How You Can Return The Favor…
A reader of FreedomIdeas.com emailed me today that he’d like to thank me for all the free info on this site by giving me a link to any of my sites.
It was suggested before that I should put up a Donations button but I don’t feel it’s the right thing here.
I am happy to share what I know (or think I know ) and am really happy to see other people succeed online.

What YOU Have To Do Or What Has To Be DONE
When you start your adventure on the internet by starting your own online business, you almost inevitably assume that you have to do everything yourself.
There’s content writing, website design, link building, interacting on social networks, participating on related forums, doing research for finding suitable websites for link exchanges and the list goes on and on.
While I personally recommend that you start doing everything yourself at the beginning (to better understand how this Internet thing works), you don’t have to stay stuck in this “mode”. Read more
When Timing Is Crucial – The Blogging Traffic Rush
There are some theories that Google indexes blogs faster than classic static sites but I haven’t seen any analysis proving that. I have seen blog posts getting indexed very fast, like my last Copaclick review which I could see in Google in just 7 minutes.
I’ve also seen my articles from my »static« SBI sites being indexed very quickly – in a matter of minutes too.
But since most static websites focus mostly on keywords that get searched over and over again, blogs can focus on keywords that happen »now«.
Getting a blog post quickly up when something interesting happens is crucial to get lost of traffic. Realize that this traffic will typically NOT monetize well since people are just curios and are not in the buying mode.
But still, they might subscribe to your newsletter, the RSS feed or even bookmark your site for later. Read more
