Yup. Took the horses out of the barn and showed one of those new-fangled homes with
an indoor privy. What will this generation think of next? A carriage that goes thru the sky?

"Sure enough, I found link exchanges on 2 of the top 3 Phoenix real
estate results. They don't have very many links on each page and they
look like they were put together by different companies as well. I'm
guessing they have been there for awhile as well."

Hi Malcolm,

The explosion in blogroll linking is, effectively, reciprocation, in
many cases. A lot of the sites in the top rankings that you looked at
for your post that do not have reciprocation directories, are, in
fact, benefiting in a huge way from blogroll reciprocation. It is
just two different mechanisms to get the same thing...valid, relevant
links.

Any agent that wants to pursue blogroll links can certainly get them
a lot easier, in an organized manner, by using our Blog Comment

Dirk, thanks for the posting this link about your blog comment assistant - I'm going to try it out.

This might be just the type of thing that agents need to easily keep track of blogs and blog posts.

As the "parent", I am a little bit to close to it at times to see it objectively from the user perspective.

So we're asking for user uinput right now, to make it the best it can be.

Before Search Engines????? Was there ever such a time?

<Paul Silver said:
I was being facetious, Suzanne... The web development company I own was
started in 1996, and we were certainly aware of the search engine idea at
that time... there were things like Gopher, Veronica, and the like, sort of
directories of information, but they were spaghetti type sites, allowing you
to dig deeper and deeper, but not to search... mostly for academic work, and
I am not sure if these still exist... but that was it... it was soon after
that Yahoo started showing up as a player.

Ancient history is interesting...>

In 1988 I was in the Philadelphia area and had some friends that were computer geeks. They were members of a loose network of computer friends that could be connected to a few university main frame computers (all dial up) for the purpose of passing around research information. Part of that computer space was used for chit chat and jokes. What happened was that access to the university computers was limited to just a few people. The people that had access to the university computers would download the text files of these conversations to their own hard drives ( think they called them nodes) and that information was then copied to other computers by some else which in turn were accessed by others and so on. The network was privately owned and to get access to the network was by invitation only. I remember a discussion about some scientist's experiment on cold fusion. The conversations and debate went on for weeks while others tried to duplicate the experiment to no avail. It was like following a soap opera. I remember that it took about two days for the information to get from the West Coast to the East Coast. This was before the internet, but at the time there was discussion of a faster way of communicating, but there was no name for it as I recall. At the time there was certainly no Search Engines.

No no no! Do not do it!

You are better off concentrating on one way links to you, unless the link out has real value from a content point of view. This is not complicated, this lengthy coversation exists only because someone want to sell linkbuilding services, not because any two way linking will do you any good. Usually the back link exists on a page that nobody sees, including the robots. Instead, build real links by building profiles on sites that provide a real html anchor text link; and or buy real one-way links from real sites that are topic specific to your target, and have page rank and traffic. You can also sell these but beware the link brokers they will get you penalized by Google eventually - Google does not like them.
