Effective (and legitimate) SEO technique: Link Wheels

Sunday, 31 July, 2011 Updated on Wednesday, 27 March, 2024 by Dejan Levi

Here’s something that doesn’t come along everyday: a nice idea for a new SEO technique which is both effective and, crucially, perfectly legitimate (i.e. a so-called ‘white hat’ technique; meaning that Google will reward rather than punish its use). Enter: The Link Wheel…

The principle is essentially quite simple. First you register on various social media and web 2.0 platforms, before writing articles on each one that link both to eachother and also to the main page whose search rankings you wish to bolster.

It really is as simple as it sounds – a rare example of a tremendously effective SEO technique which requires zero development or programming experience to implement. The key to doing it effectively of course is not so much in the technical know-how of coding, but in writing effective articles which will draw attention and link well to eachother, and to your main page.

Though such a strategy has been possible (and evident in practice) for a long time, it nonetheless is now more appealing than ever before since the potential for creating a snowball effect (in a web traffic sense) is ever greater with the abundance of link sharing tools currently popular on the web (everything from Twitter, to Facebook’s Like button and so on).

All in all, the link wheel represents a superb SEO strategy for those without extensive coding or development experience and one with very decent future prospects, whose efficacy will only grow the more it is employed (i.e. the more articles/posts you are able to create).
