Exchanging Link

Exchanging links is or should I say, are, part and parcel of sharing your site with another person's site. It is akin to barter trade.

If you are using Wordpress, this is how you can do it.

Step 1: Go to your Wordpress admin dashboard. Click on Link on Write Tab.
Step 2: All you have to do now is fill in the necessary information.

Three things to remember:

1. You have to categorise your links so not everything appears as blogroll. Just add new names to the categories

2. You have to decide if you want the link to open on a new window. Usually a new window is desirable if it is not your site. It will keep your site open when the link is clicked.

3. If you have clickbank account, you should enter your hoplink address instead of the site addresss. (Clickbank account is necessary if you wish to promote a product froom the marketplace.)

I do not try to elaborate too much on what is good or bad about exchanging links because in my opinion, any website that helps people to improve their quality of life should deserve a chance to have a link partner. The website does not necessarily talk about making money, but it has to point towards giving solutions. That will encourage your readers to come to your site and browse.
