Are Dead Links Killing Your Rankings?

The first thing you must do before you submit any of your web pages do is make sure that all of the internal links on your site actually work.

Many factors can & do effect the search results returned by search engines. One of these major factors is whether or not your site is full of dead links.

There's nothing worse then for a web surfer to click on your link and get a"404 link not found" error!

This is true of the search engines as well. You don't want the search engine spiders coming to your site and then leaving because your site has bad links!

Even just one or two bad links on your web site can cause the search engine spiders to penalize your web site and lower your ranking or worse yet - ignore your site altogether!

Now I know this sounds kind of silly doesn't it, after all its commonsense -- right? But you would be surprised at the number of web sites with broken links.

In fact I'd be willing to bet that 90% of all web sites have at least two broken internal links.

The reason that this is so important is that if the search engine spiders hit a dead link in your web site they might leave and not index your entire site.

If this happens you have to wait weeks, sometimes months before that spider will try again.

There's no need to waste this valuable time, getting index takes long enough as it is so make sure that all of your internal links work correctly.

This is very easy to do using your web page creation software like Dreamweaver or FrontPage or the internal site link checker that you'll find at: http://www.thieptraitim.com.

This "link checker" drills down through your site to ferret out bad links so you can fix them before the search engine spiders can find them!

Best of luck, and see you at the top!
