I’m not obsolete yet!

PhilC over at Web Workshop has written another great article. this time focusing on the Inbound Link Text..

You would think that this particular topic would be common knowledge by now.. But we constantly see people, especially those claiming to be SEOs, claim that links no longer matter, or link text has been degraded as a factor at Google.. So far no one has been able to present solid proof that this is the case.. In fact, link building is still the #1 method of driving your site up the charts.. If it weren’t there wouldn’t be so many people out there selling their services at submitting your site to a long list of directories..

As an example, some of us are pushing san diego web design up the charts without actually being a web design company.. The thread is a fun read as well..

Good job Phil on laying this subject out in a manner that everyone should be able to understand.. If you want to participate in the discussion, right now it’s just us stroking Phil’s ego – but a discussion should evolve, join us over at SEO Froum..
