I Heartily Endorse 3WayLinks To Get Backlinks- Why:
Building backlinks should be at the heart of your internet strategy. I like to use 3 strategies for link building:
1. Article marketing - time consuming, but rewarding. My advice: choose 3 or 4 major article directories. Ezine Articles is a must, ArticleDashboard is good, so is Associated Content. Don’t spend lots of time and trouble submitting to the hundreds of lesser directories by hand- instead look at services like Article United the distribute to smaller directories. I’ve used most of the paid article submission services, they work well, too - ArticleMarketer is the best.
2. Blog Carnivals - in a previous post, I discussed how blog carnivals work. Don’t neglect this powerful and free method. I’m currently working on an automation program to submit posts to blog carnivals automatically. Stay tuned for that - it’s coming soon.
3. 3WayLinks.com this method is absolutely killer. If you have the time and inclination, I recommend you hop over to the 3WayLinks web site and check it out. This is not a reciprocal link program - it’s a totally automated 3 way linking systems that automatically will find backlinks for you - you just have to put a small piece of code on your site. This service builds links slowly, with relevant anchor text - just what the search engines want.
Jon Ledger has a link building guide on the site that is worth the first month’s fee all by itself. If you sign up for the service, be sure to try the beta of DirLinks - the new, even more powerful service Jon is working on.
Keyword selection is the most important aspect of using 3WayLinks - to use the service properly, you have to concentrate on keywords where the search results for the top 10 have a relatively small number of backlinks, but have adequate search volume. You want to be able to rank well for keywords that get decent traffic. Be sure to read all of the excellent documentation on the site - and spend some time reading the posts in the support forum.
This is the paragraph from Jon’s site that got me thinking about the power of this service:
“The niche keywords are where the real money is anyway. It’s a lot easier to get 50 sites ranking for keywords that win you 2,000 uniques a month each than it is to rank one site for keywords that get 100,000 uniques a month — even though the bottom line is the same. Read that sentence again so it soaks in!”
Yes read it again - (Hint: think - Adsense).
I have over 40 sites on 3WayLinks - and my backlinks are slowly, but very surely moving up - so is my traffic and revenue. Try 3WayLinks - you will not be disappointed.

Agreed with you because i’m a regular user of ezinearticle who is the best place to submit articles to promote your product. It not only helps in backlinks some excellent article easily comes in google rankings which could be beneficial for traffic also!
Hi Carl
Very interesting article, thanks. A quick question - if the 3 Way Links system means you have to put some code on your site, isn’t it likely that Google will soon recognise that code and penalise such sites?
Cheers, Jon
[Jon, I don’t think so. The code is php code, which is read by the spiders as pure html.]
I agree with Jon, Code is Code be it PHP Html or whatever eventually Google will figure out what is going on and 3 way links will end up like reciprocal links and link farming.
Abuse will be punished when it’s found. Obviously everyone won’t be punished, but you can bet that some will just as they are now for other things…
Google uses everyone’s content on the web without providing any compensation, then deliver it to others with lots of terms and conditions. They can do as they wish with their network, but so can everyone else on the web. I wish people would stop viewing Google as some type of omnipotent wizard - it’s a search engine. If people can’t find what they want on Google - a replacement will quickly emerge. I would bet a steak dinner that Google is making more money off of the sites using 3waylinks that the service itself is collecting.
Carl, right now Google has the most clout for search engines, as such they can dictate whatever and however they like. If a few get de-indexed its no real biggy to them there are plenty of other fish in the sea for Google to pull content up in Search… Out of millions of websites it would take a butt load of sites getting droped to make any real impact on user preference of search engines.
Are they an Omnipotent wizard? No.
Are they the most used Search Engine at the moment? You bet and that is what counts at this point in time. Nothing else is really relevant.
I have used Google since it came out and I know they have dropped many sites in that time. Google dropping sites has yet to impact my searching noticeably. I imagine it will remain so for a long time to come.
Indeed, Google can pretty much do as it pleases in this regard and so it does.
