We’re already at the end of September. This month has been one stinky month for affiliate commissions for me (so far), but I fully expect a big bounce up starting in October.

Although it’s important (very much so) to ensure our pages are clean, sparkling and ready to rock with customers - we also need a strong force of inbound links pointing at our sites (duh!). The more the merrier. Mostly for search engine rankings, but a lot of times the sites providing the inbounds can provide you with some traffic.

Here are some good resources for gaining one way links:

Info Vilesilencer
*Kick butt list of search engine friendly directories. Links are clean (not script generated), free submissions and non-recips. The best directory list I’ve found yet.

List Of Article Submission Sites
*My personal list I work through (most of them). I tried choosing sites that were easy enough to submit to and dig around. All are free.

Don’t forget (Some of these are mine - a couple are a friend’s):

Chilly Cool Directory General Directory
Nifty Shops Directory Shopping Sites
Shopshootah Directory Shopping sites
Fabarooni Directory General Directory
Fabaroo Directory General Directory

Super Tips For Submissions:

The holiday season is near - can ya feel it?

Enjoy your day!
