Link Referral (Web Site and Blogs Promotion) - Featured Review

LinkReferral – Featured Review

Link Referral in the mission statement is promising to provide budget or free alternative to search engines in bringing additional traffic to your Web Sites. Quoting the description of how it works from the company Web Site: “In order to participate, all you need to do is login and visit a maximum of 30 sites and 5 reviews in a 24 hour period for the highest possible ranking in your site category. Obviously the higher your ranking, the more traffic you will likely receive. Rank is determined by the sum of visits + (reviews X review quality), and then finally by the latest login time. You can expect to receive 20-60 extra visitors a day of people who specifically chose your site to visit from a modest amount of daily participation and that number is growing daily as more members are participating in the program.”

I am a member of this community for about a week, and I want to bring you my 2 cents on how the site can be useful for your traffic building efforts. First of all, the site has a pretty high online ranking (as of today, Alexa traffic rank is 5,271; last wee it was even better – in the middle of the 3,000). I did not plan to purchase upgrade, so my task was to evaluate the member ability on bringing your site to the top of the list by all means available with imposed restrictions. The results of this experiment were quite satisfactory. I could manage to climb to the rank 7 in my category with my site, so it is published on the main page of the category listing. I got 6 site reviews in a week, and I am proud of not loosing a single point of the score (read below a disclaimer to this statement), and I got a certain traffic flow from the site.

The disclaimer I mentioned above is related to the fact, that there are not many quality sites there, at least from those, I have already reviewed. In fact, any blog or self-multiplied one-page site can become a member, including unashamed sales and promotion pages. So, every good site or blog is clearly visible and respected by the community members. The good outcomes I could count from this site use are: getting 4 people linked to my site or added it to their favorites (and these are the most valuable addition, as these are people that care of what I am writing about) , finding two really good informative blogs that I have included in my Blog Lines favorites myself; moderate additional traffic to my blog.

In conclusion, I want to claim, that the review is not sponsored, I do not get any compensation neither from the host site, nor for other organizations. In current days, it is an important note, I know. Also, I will not benefit from your membership as referrals, as referral program is working only for paid membership. Anyway, it is a site to be considered in your efforts for your blog or site promotion.
