We all want our websites to be popular and have lots of web users visiting them. To assist the popularity of websites backlinks are a big help. One useful way of building backlinks is to sign up for various websites and blogs that give you a profile name. The user names are to be used when you are commenting on their site. Many will have the option of adding a URL for a website address to your profile details and this will be counted as a link back to your site by the search engines. Some people spend a lot of time finding and building these backlinks as they are unlikely to disappear and they can sometimes be on high pageranking websites.

The spammers and black hatters have noticed this too, of course. Before long they started spamming the heck out of websites that offered anyone the opportunity to gain a link. The result of all this computerized spamming was the development of the CAPTCHA system whereby you have to type in the word or phrase shown to demonstrate you are a real person wanting to sign up.

The spammers were not going to let this stop them and they have constantly developed better and better captcha readers to continue with their automated activities. This has now got us to a position where some of these captchas are very difficult to read by us humans. I frequently type in the wrong words because I cant quite figure out what the letters and numbers are supposed to be.

I can see a day coming when the only website visitors that will be able to read the jumble of letters presented will be autobots controlled by computer systems. The only users to be able to get these website profile backlinks will be the computer controlled autobots. I have no idea where will that leave us and what we will do then. It may be we will see clips of video and be asked questions about what happened but the captcha system will need to be very sophisticated so it can understand a natural language reply.

It is in the nature of computer programs and computer systems that they are developed and get better and better at what they do. We poor humans are stuck with the eyes and brains we are born with. We can only hope that there will be some new development that makes it easier to tell a human from an autobot. To be honest I think that is unlikely to happen. Whatever they come up with you can be sure computer programers will find a way to overcome it and us poor humans will be forever struggling to prove we are a real person.

Every day new people start out thinking they can make a lot of money online in no time at all. They have seen the marketing that says how easy it is to make truck loads of money with very little work. Most will be disappointed because it is never quite as easy as many promotions of products, systems and guides suggest.

There is no question about it, there are boatloads of money being made online every day and this will continue to grow. The questions arise over who will make that money and how they make it.

A lot of people make a good living by selling How To Make Money Online guides and courses. If you only follow the marketing forums you could be forgiven for thinking that this is the only way to make money online. The reality is very different.

Amazon And Ebay are just two examples of companies making huge amounts of money every single day by selling real, physical products. Ebay is slightly different in that the products are not their own but that should be an example to us all. You do not have to have your own product to make money online.

Selling other people's products as an affiliate is one of the simplest ways of making money online. You do not have to do any customer support or refunds. Everything is done for you and all you need to do is provide the traffic and potential customers to the sellers sales page.

Traffic is the key to pretty much everything online. It doesn't matter if you have the best product or the best website if you have no traffic. Visitors are what makes for successful websites and the more opportunities you take advantage of to promote your website around the web, the more likely you are the achieve success, whatever products you choose to sell.

There are three ways to increase your website traffic. You can tell people about your site both online and offline. You can get other people to tell the world about your website and you can rank well in the search engines to improve your chances of people finding you when they search for what your website has to offer.

All three ways are broadly similar. It's all about spreading word about your website and what people will find there to encourage them to want to come visit. There can be few things as frustrating as putting your heart and soul into producing a website you are proud of but hardly anyone  comes to look.

In an ideal world you would do nothing. The world would discover your website and they would all suggest their friends take a look. Sadly this doesn't happen much in real life so we have to do something to promote our websites.

The simplest and arguably the best way of getting more traffic to your website is when the search engines rate your website highly and put it at the top of the search engine rankings. There are various secret analysis methods they use to decide which sites get pride of place in the top ten on page one of the results for any search term but there are two things we know they pay a lot of attention to.

First is the domain name. If you have a perfect domain name for what your website is about that will give it a big boost in the search results. Secondly, we know the search engines consider the number and quality of backlinks, on other websites and blogs, pointing back to your website counts for a lot. These backlinks are considered to be a positive recommendation of your website and it makes a lot of sense because the best websites are bound to develop quite a following and lots of people will link to them. Clearly, backlinks are crucial to your success in getting to increase your website traffic from search engines but how can we encourage people to link to our website?

You can do all sorts of things to spread the word and gain backlinks on other sites and blogs but it all takes time and it can be a very tedious process. You can offer to link back to a site if they link to you but these links, known as reciprocal links, are thought to be less valuable in the eyes of the search engine algorithms.

What we want are links from sites that we don't have to link back to but then there is no incentive for them to give us the backlink. What if someone set up a service where you link to various sites and other sites link to you and all this is done in a way that means everyone gets backlinks but they are never reciprocal?

Well they have and it is a simple to use and very effective service. This type of linking is known as three way linking and it works. All sites are checked to see that they are proper websites and not just spammy sites and all have to be indexed by Google to be accepted.

You join up with the service and are then given some code to make an extra page on your website that displays the links which slowly grow over time and all this happens without you having to do anything more as you increase backlinks automatically. In return your website will gain links almost every day which builds up to give you backlinks from all over the internet. All these extra backlinks should give your website greater credibility with the search engines and improve your position in the search engine results. The end result should be a sustained increase in website traffic.

This is a very good service and very professionaly run with simple instalation intructions and good support offered via a forum.  There is a monthly fee for the service but you can have up to fifty websites gaining backlinks almost every day. The cost is only $7 for the first 30 days so you can give it a thorough test to see if you feel the cost is justified and cancel before the month is up if for some reason you are disappointed. I don't think you will be but you may not be ready for a service like this yet. You can read all about it here..<click here> and hopefully you will  increase website traffic and visitors to your site.
