Linking your Local Mojo Local Website to one of your other websites or one of your social media profiles is easy. Here are some simple steps you can take to leverage your Internet presence and help all your rankings using your new Local Mojo Local Website.
All you have to do is link from your current site or profile to your Local Mojo Local Website using your business name and or location in the anchor text for the link.
Hey, that doesn’t sound very easy?
So what does that actually mean?
Anchor text is simply the words used in the link. For example if the link said “Click Here” Click Here would be considered the anchor text. If the link said “Pizza Shops in Chicago” then Pizza Shops in Chicago would be considered the anchor text.
Anytime you add a link it is important to use good anchor text. You want the text to be descriptive enough to give the user a good idea what they are clicking on. But there are also SEO or Search Engine Optimization benefits from using good anchor text. So when linking to your own business site or Local Mojo Local Website try to use good descriptive keywords in your link to get the optimum benefits.
How do you do it?
Adding a link from your existing website or social media profile to your Local Mojo Website
It’s actually pretty simple to do. You need to know how to cut and paste.
First, navigate to where you want the link to go and then just click in the address bar, select the address and copy it (control C on a PC) (command C on a Mac).
Now go to the site where you are setting up the link — your new Local Mojo Local Website — and paste the address into the link set up using the address you just copied.
It’s a little tricky, but this will give you a valuable inbound link to your site which is an important factor when determining the ranking of sites. If you are able to chose your own anchor text when adding the link we recommend putting either your company name or your main service with location. For example if your business was a bike shop in San Francisco either example for your anchor text would be effective.
Joe’s Bike Shop (this one will help your brand name search)
Bike Shop San Francisco (this one will help your local search with a service)
Some sites such as twitter do not allow you to chose your own anchor text, but you can still insert links to your Local Mojo Local Website which will help. Other sites such as blogs, or traditional websites will allow you the option to chose your own anchor text.
By doing this relatively simple thing it will help jump start the ranking of your site and also allow users to find your Local Mojo Local Website from other web properties you own.
