Any suggestions for links in posts and what's the deal with www...
Hello,
I have 3 questions:
1) I have posts on my wordpress blog that each have 3 links to the affiliate clickbank product site I am promoting. The question I have is in regards to RSS feeds. If I understand correctly, RSS submitted to aggregators provide backlinks while at the same time the possibility that others will pick it up and put it on their site (or some of the posts). Am I losing out on backlinks by only having links within the posts that go to my affiliate Clickbank products? My guess is yes and that at least one link should point back to my main site. Is this correct?
2) When I look up my site in Google with the site:mywebsitename function to see what's been indexed, the version of my site with www. only shows one indexed page, whereas the version of my site without the www. shows 12 pages indexed. Do I need to worry about this? Market Samurai shows me the same information, but also indicates that the www(dot)mysite(dot)com and the mysite(dot)com have the same number of backlinks so I am not sure how to interpret this. To be safe, should I just make sure all my articles on directories and submitted backlinks (i.e. Hubpages, Blogger and in posts etc), go to the non www. version instead of the www. version? I hope that makes sense.
3) Why are backlinks from sites such as Blogger and Wordpress.com that I set up pointing to my main site not showing up yet in Google? They have been up for a good 2 weeks and yet don't show up as backlinks in Market Samurai or other backlink checking capable programs/urls. Come to think of it, neither do any of my submitted articles including Ezine and GoArticle to name only 2. What's the dealio?
Thanks for the help!
