SEOmoz Page Strength – It All Boils Down to Links

As you can see from our last post almost ALL of the criteria for getting a good page ranking in SEOmoz is related to links. Link love is indeed very important if you want to be able to get lots of traffic. This is true for all websites in the internet and especially true for blogs. The reasoning behind this is actually very simple.

We know the importance of the “word of mouth” most trends couldn’t have gotten as popular as they have without it. If you don’t believe me read Malcolm Gladwell’s “The Tipping Point” (it isn’t an SEO book but you’ll understand just how important the word of mouth is aside from being a really good read). In cyberspace links are equivalent to gossip and referrals. The more links you have the more people will become aware of your blog’s existence. Hence whether the links point to your full URL or domain or whether it comes from Yahoo, Wikipedia, or DMOZ the important thing is for you to have plenty of them in the right places.
