Get links to your site just by asking

Add a "Link to us" link to your web pages

Wouldn't it be handy if you could get links to your site just by asking site visitors to put in a link to your site from theirs? And if you could provide them with the proper link text for each page on your site based on the page title and meta description?

Other website owners and bloggers will do just that - if they like your site, and if you make the task easy for them, they will link to you. And when you get links to your site, your website traffic grows.

That's what I've done for my site, Green-Energy-Efficient-Homes.com. And you can get links to your site for free as well.

If you'd like to see how this code works, just click on the "Link to this page" link at the bottom of this page.

How to add the "Link to this page" link to your pages

If you would like to get links to your site using my code, you are welcome to use the code snippet shown lower down, provided you accept the terms of use / license as indicated in the box below. In exchange for your use of this code, you must leave the link back to this page in the expanded snippet. I ask that you do this for two reasons:

So that others can benefit from this code as well
Because I put some effort into developing and maintaining it, and am providing it for free, so would appreciate some backlinks to my site to compensate me for my efforts (remember, the link to my site only shows up in the expanded version)

Copy the code below into an include file, e.g. linktome.shtml. Then, if you are an SBI! website owner, just add:

***linktome.shtml***

to the bottom of each of your web pages. If you are not an SBI! owner, you can of course just add the code to each file manually, or through a website template if you use a web authoring tool.

Important - terms of use - license

By incorporating this code into your website you agree to the following terms:

1. You acknowledge that Green-Energy-Efficient-Homes.com is the copyright owner of the code used to provide the linking, and you agree to preserve the copyright notice in the JavaScript source code

2. You acknowledge that Green-Energy-Efficient-Homes.com grants you a non-exclusive, non-redistributable right to use and/or modify this code, provided you abide by the terms of use / license agreement

3. You agree to leave the copyright notice and the code linking back to Green-Energy-Efficient-Homes.com intact in the expanded version of the linking code

Here's the code to add to your include file, or to the bottom of each page. Right-click inside the text box, and choose "Select all", then "Copy", and then paste it into a plain text editor. Make sure you edit it to set the style and content to your liking - but remember that you must leave the link back to my site in place (see terms of use above).

Thanks - and happy link building!
