Reciprocal linking... do we know each other?

[Ricardo Zea]

Hello people.

I´m thinking on arranging some reciprocal linking with some other websites, but I have my doubts about it.

There are these sites that offer a form to fill out with the information of your website, but they ask first for you to have their link already on your site.

My question is, how good is the method to boost rankings when my link it´s not going to show on the of the other site´s home page?

Thank you.

Reciprocal linking has worked great for me. Your link doesn't have to be on the home page in order for you to get a boost in rankings.

When exchanging links just make sure there is a clear path from their home page, where your link will be displayed, and the search engine spiders will find it. Also, make sure it is a plain html link and not a dynamic url.
