		<description>Hi DaNae,

Yes, it would count for both! In fact it would count for all word combinations: top laptop reviews, top laptop, laptop reviews and even top reviews.</description>

		<description>Tomaz,

Thank you for all of your great information! I ran across this wonderfully informative site just a little bit ago. Thank you!

I had a question about the keyword in the link text... Say the keyword that I want to rank for is Laptop Reviews, but I ask them to link to me with Top Laptop Reviews. Would that count for Laptop Reviews and Top Laptop Reviews? Or do I need to just request for just Laptop Reviews?

Thanks!

		<description>Hi Nisheth,

Follow the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.freedomideas.com/make-your-site-known-link-building-strategies-and-tips-step-7/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;link building strategies&lt;/a&gt; in the order I suggested them. You can also sign up for Value Exchange and suggest link exchanges with sites that have PR0. 

Of course, try and get a link from higher PR sites but be aware that the probability of getting a link is small. Nevertheless, if you persevere, you will get them.

Once your PR is higher, it will be easier to get higher PR links. But again, start with directories and article submissions and some PR0 link exchanges.

Other webmasters will also find you when you have some PR so there&#039;s much less work involved.</description>

		<description>Hi Tomaz,

Thanks for the tips! I&#039;m deep into link building right now for my website and I must say it&#039;s challenging. It seems like a chicken and egg problem. How can you ever to expect getting high PR links until you already have a high PR page? And once you have a high PR page, who would be interested in exchanging links? (It&#039;s kind of like trying to get a job without any experience. How can you get experience if no one is willing to give someone without any experience a job? :))

Do you think it&#039;s better to get a bunch of PR0 links instead or just focus on getting high PR links even though rate of rejection is much higher?

Thanks!</description>

		<description>Hi Carolina,

There is a saying that if you get a 10% response rate from link exchange emails you&#039;re doing really well. ;)

You just have to keep going and nicely reminding them about your link proposal. They&#039;ll be even happier is they see a link to their site already posted on yours...</description>

		<description>I have a couple of contacts who failed to reply to a (good written) link exchange e-mail. My problem is that my bosses need the links. We are a committee active on the memory of the Righteous which is growing and trying to be there in the memorial and human rights environment. So I will have to retry to be linked back by some big institutions of the field. 
Do you think I can plainly go and say I need them to link back or there is some other valuable strategy for second attempts?
Thank you,
Carolina</description>

		<description>China hit the nail on the head. Google doesn&#039;t care about content, people do. I&#039;ve seen many a website with great content and a big fat zero Pagerank. Google needs to sort the PageRank business out, and start making content a priority (if it can). PageRank on its own is often meaningless!!!</description>
