Welcome Webmasters to our Link Directory Information Page
Please Note: we do not participate in "triangular" or 3-way linking. Please do not waste your time or ours sending these type requests. They will be deleted and ignored.
If you own or run
a site that is related to Excalibur Brothers we would be happy to trade
links with you provided your site meets a few simple requirements.
- Your site MUST
be related in some way. If you do not see a category your site fit
into feel free to suggest a new category but also be convincing. If
it's not truly related your request will be rejected.
- Your site must
provide a clear link (footer links are ok) to your link or resource
area.
-
Your link directory must be structured.
Our philosophy in trading links is to drive human visitors
between our sites. The search engines want tightly themed categorized
directories and good content. Give them these and you will get the
benefits in SERP results you are looking for.
- We prefer only
one page per category but if you have multiple pages in a category we
require that our listing be on
the first page of the category and stay on the first page.
-
Your site must be family friendly.
In other words it must not promote hate, violence against others,
racism, intimate sex or anything else that is not generally deemed
advisable or acceptable for audiences of all ages.
- Your site must
be user friendly. This means good clear navigation, easy ordering if
commercial oriented, not load too slow and not contain excessive
pop-ups (more than 1 per page or 3 per site but we prefer none).
- A link to
Excalibur Brothers must appear on your site before you send your
request or be live within 3 hours of sending your request. Sorry
but we have too much to do to try and remember to check tomorrow or
next week if the link is live.
- Google PR:
It doesn't really matter. Everyone starts somewhere. Unless your
site has been banned and would jeopardize our standing with the
search engines we are more concerned with the content, navigation and
functionality of your site and the structure of your directory.
If your site
meets all of the above requirements follow the simple steps below and
your link will be listed within 24 hours of our receiving your request.
(Unless we happen to be on vacation or a 3 day road trip) As a link partner, you will receive special treatment with your link located in the top section of the page.
A Link Partner image  will also be placed next to your link letting our visitors know you are a Link Partner.
Step
1:
Find the category you wish to be listed in.
At the bottom of that page will be our
preferred title and description for the
theme of your site.
Step
2: A link
using the preferred title and description
must appear on your site before requesting
a link from us ( or be live within 3 hours
of sending the request). Any request that
does not have a link listed at the within
this time frame will be deleted and
ignored. (Sorry we have limited amounts of
time too.) We prefer to use text links but
will display a banner with your listing if
you desire.
Step
3:
E-Mail us the following information and we will add your
listing:
- Your Websites URL - Please Make Sure It Is
Correct
- The title you want used with your listing. It's
a good idea to concentrate on using your keywords
here rather than your store name
- The description you want used with your listing.
Be compelling but honest.
Don't over hype please.
- The URL where we can find our link.
Required upon submission.
- The category from our
LinkPageDirectory that you wish your listing to
appear in
- If you are suggesting a new category specify the
name of the category you wish and why you feel it's
related.
If you have a banner you wish us to use
please include either the URL where we can
link to your image or the URL of a page where
we can save your image from. Please do not
send a banner image with your e-mail.
We prefer a text link to our site but if
you require a banner please save one of the
banners below to your server and link it to
http://www.excaliburbrothers.com . Please also
include either a text link using the above
requested title or the description in an alt
tag with the banner.
Step
4:
If you have followed all the guidelines your
listing will be live on our site with 24 hours
of receiving your e-mail. You will receive a
confirmation e-mail showing exactly where you
can find your link, what category it is in and
what the title and description used were so
you can verify we used the correct
information.
Thank you for your time. I hope you enjoy
both an increase in visitors and sales from
your linking strategy and wish you the best of
everything in both your business ventures and
your life.
Sincerely,
Lawrence &
Marsha Piper
