Free One-Way Links - Add your BANS Site Now!

March 6, 2008

As mentioned earlier, I have been working on a new project called Niche Clouds. I am to the point with the project that I need to have 5-10 links in all of the categories and I NEED YOUR HELP!

When you get to the site you will notice a few of the pages are just blank… well, I have plans for those pages, but need to get 50-100 (or more) links into the database first! :-) That’s where you all come in… submit your links and get listed on the site before it is opened up into the BANS user forum and several other places I have it slated to be promoted. The site is registered for 10 years… so these one way links are going to be invaluable within just a few short months when the site is deep indexed and gains authority!

I cannot let the cat out of the bag… but having a link in this directory “Might” just get your site listed at 150-200 other sites, instantly!

Note: At this time, I am ONLY accepting Build a Niche Store websites, please do not submit other sites you may have.

So… How can you help? (Please read this whole page before you go to the other site)

Visit the BANS Niche Site Directory
Choose the category from the left menu that your Build a Niche Store site falls into
Suggest a term for your Build a Niche Store site (3-4 words MAX, even though it says 3)
Walk through the suggestion process, submitting your anchor term
YOU MUST CLICK ON PURCHASE - even if the cost is $0.00! Or, the link will NOT save into the database.

Since I have decided to make this free for a limited time, I cannot control how you all choose to add BOLD, Text colors, etc to your requested listing. I do however ask that you don’t submit every one of your sites as BOLD, HUGE TEXT, etc. I will have to police this manually and have limited control over it… so I just ask you all to use your honor system. ALL links have to be manually approved, which I only do once each day… if you submit today, it may not show up until tomorrow.

If you REALLY feel generous, I would LOVE inbound links to the directory! If you want to place it into the footer of your niche site as a niche directory, the code is below:

Happy Free One-Way linking!

Very generous of ya’… :)

Though you might want to fix that inbound link request, as it’s definitely going to 404 for everyone.

@ Sean -

Doh!

Thanks for spotting the target issue… ahh, the wonders of html cleanup!

Hi Mark

I would love to take up your very generous offer. However, I’m not sure if it is appropriate and I should be grateful for your advice. Also, I don’t yet know about linking and hyper-text and how all of that works. I’m completely new to all of this and am on a very steep learning curve!!!

My concerns are, firstly, that I am aiming at the UK market. Is it appropriate for me to join a US directory? I need my sites to show in the UK (we have the option to search only UK sites on all the search engines) and I was wondering if my account with Hostgator would make this difficult? Finally, I came to your course late and so am weeks behind everyone else. Should I wait until I have completed all my category descriptions, before adding my link?

Like everyone else on this forum, I am so grateful to you for your generosity - you are also an excellent teacher - thank you.

Kind regards
Denise

Thanks for the links Mark. It’s always appreciated.

I will put links to your directory for my non BANS pages so I keep the links one-way.

BTW: I created my second BANS site yesterday. Finally.

Hi Mark

I think I called one of mine “Seahorsees for Sale” - DOH! At least that phrase came up when I was typing, so I think I made a boo-boo. Could you please amend it to “Seahorses for Sale” - what a goof.

Thank you!

I will definitely change it for you!

Sorry, Mark. Busy finishing up midterms this week! But now, spring break (wahoo!). So I’m heading over to add my BANS sites. Also, will give you a one-way link from my PR 2 non-bans site! =)

Mark,

I submitted 25 links belonging to 25 BANS sites of mine, and you added only one.

It took me a lot of my precious time to do that much!

How do you justify it?

@ GB -

Thank you for submitting your sites! I walk through the site once each day and approve all links in the database… there are however, several that were not fully completed, that only show as suggested terms…

I will look into what may have caused this…

Mark,

Thanks for the great idea. I’ve returned the favour and added a link to Niche Clouds in my footer.
