Working With the Purrfect Partners

by

Becoming successful running a website all by your lonesome is as likely as a turtle flying a spaceship to the moon. Why? Because the turtle can’t reach the pedals LOL! I made that one up all by myself! Hmmm.. ok back to the website thing. You can work on a website alone definitely, but without incoming links, your page rank will stink, nobody will visit, and you will be doomed like the passengers on the turtles spaceship.

So… how do you get links? Find the perfect partners! Find other websites similar to yours and build relationships with them to help both your sites succeed. Sometimes, the purrfect partner can be found in the most unlikely of places… For example, I have recently begun working with a group of cats and kittens in order to deliver the best web development news possible. The only difficulty with these partners is their need for frequent napping which ends a lot of meetings early…

Why have these furry partners helped increase traffic to Web Dev Notes? Probably because they add a little fun and mischief to an otherwise somewhat less exciting subject matter…! And how is this helping another website? Every one of these pictures is a link to the website from which they originate, thus thanking the creators and sending them back some traffic!

While cats may not always be able to offer the best web development advice, this week they have definitely helped prove that a picture can make an article much more valuable, entertaining and meaningful than the text itself could standing alone.
