Understanding “Off Page Optimization”

Off-Page Search Engine Optimization includes tricks which are chosen to make relevant back links towards the website to make the web page appropriate in front of search engine spiders.

Off page SEO is done with the objective to improve our site’s search engine rankings outside of our site. One of the things that we can do off site to increase our rankings is “build up” more links. More links will normally lead to improved Google Page Rank and better search engine rankings. When we are trying to obtain more links, we need to think about quality. Not all links are created equal and links from low quality sites will have little or no impact on our rankings. The best types of back links that we can get are from trusted and good sources such as universities, research papers, newspapers and top of the directories like Yahoo and Google.

Social Bookmarking

Social Bookmarking is the best method to organize, store, manage and search for bookmarks of online resources.
The SEO players look for related social bookmarking websites where they can bookmark their own website to get a back link from the site.
When we discover a web page that we find interesting, instead of having to remember the address of the webpage, we can basically save the address as a ‘bookmark’ in our browser. Social bookmarking is similar to saving favourites on our browser, except that here we are saving to a website that we can access from any computer in the world. But the important component of social bookmarking is the ‘social’ element. Each one can appear at each one else’s bookmarks. That would mean, we are looking for the content, that people already bookmarked.
We can also see how good is the quality of different content, by seeing how many times it’s been saved by special users. Mainly social bookmarking websites will display a number next to the content representing how many times it has been saved by a different user. These sites also show a continuously updated list of popular web pages. This can be an effective technique of finding remarkable content that we might not come across otherwise.
