Search engines judge the reputation of every Web site so they can present the highest quality content--the content with the best reputation. Search engines have a few ways of judging the quality of content, but by far the biggest element of a search engine's view of your page's reputation is driven by links.
If your Web site is well-known, you may already have attracted many links. Perhaps you think that you don't need to improve the links coming to your site.
But even some large companies, such as WebMD (www.webmd.com), the well-known medical information site, attract fewer links than they could. WebMD had over 12,000 links at one time, but virtually all of them to its home page, with few links to the disease information pages that drive referrals from informational queries.
WebMD ranked #1 for queries for "webmd," but not for "allergies." A campaign to attract links to WebMD's interior pages changed all that, and it can help your site, too.
