Who is ready for a free review on the SEO you have been doing (or need to be doing) for your website?

I will personally check your website on a few points to make sure you are on the right way to achieving high rankings on important keywords.

I will be reviewing the following factors:

Is your website indexed well by search engines?
Is your website optimized for keywords?
Does your website have enough quality content?
Is your website popular enough in the eyes of a search engine?
More!

Note: Only websites/blogs related to Travel, Tourism or Hospitality will be reviewed.

I will review 1 website per week and report about it in my blog. Getting a review also means getting a link to your website from this high quality blog ;-)

Send an e-mail to: SEOsecretsTravel@gmail.com with as subject: SEOReview. Send me your name, website URL and please tell me if there’s something particular you want to know more about (Link building, optimizing for keywords, creating content, etc.). If not, that’s fine too.

Get your chance for a free review! Act now. E-mail me!

For now I will only write blogs and record audio for each review. Later on I will be recording video and posting it on the famous video sites as well.

Quick Start Guide for Travel Linkbuilding

Getting started with linkbuilding for travel websites can be tough. Many people’s first thoughts are “Where do I start and how should I do it?”. Let me answer that question for you.

#1 Submit your website to travel directories

Go to the following websites and submit your travel site:

#2 Submit your website to forums

Visite these forums and post some threads and replies related to your keywords. Use your keywords to link to your website. These forums hand you the ability to link your text in the textbox.

#3 Submit your website to social networks

Ning.com makes it possible for you to submit your own content and create your own profile with links to your website. Just like with forums, you can decide which text will actually link to your website.

#4 Submit your website to blogs in the comments

You can comment on travel blogs related to your keywords. I will not list any websites here, but I will tell you how to find them. We are going to use Google for this.

Use the search query in Google and change YOUR_KEYWORD to your city or country. Open the search query in Google. Then comment at the bottom of the pages. Comment on at least 5-10 related blogs.

#5 Answer related questions on Q&A sites

Go to the following websites, search for people asking questions related to your city or country and answer them with good information.

Are you up for finding some great tips that will get you started with quality linkbuilding? Let’s get started!

If you follow my tips on Twitter regularly, you might have seen some of my Google search queries. They give you access to websites that are related to your keywords. And of course, they are all dofollow (meaning: search engines will “see” the links and are thus not blocked by webmasters).

Here are my most powerful search queries to find websites to post your links to, related to your keywords.

After clicking the links, make sure you change “YOUR_KEYWORD” in the Google search bar! Change it to your destination or country.
