Link Vault Review

Author: Thomas Höfter

Link Vault is a new free reciprocal link exchange system, which can help you build hundreds of links to your site in a ""natural"" way and therefore greatly improve your search engine rankings. In this review I will explain how the program works, how it's features helped me and how you can benefit from them as well.

1. What Do I Need? Since Link Vault is free in it's basic version (a paid option is available as well but the most important things are all included in the free basic package) you only need a web host who either supports PHP4 or ASP. Your website may also not contain any pharmacy, gambling or adult content and has to get approved by the human reviewers, who will check every submitted site to assure that only high quality sites get into the network.

2. How Does It Work? The principle of Link Vault is as simple as logical: First you add a little PHP or ASP code to all the pages of your website (so your host has to support one of those languages to use Link Vault) which will place a small number of links (the maximum is 5 per page) on your website. For those placed links you get assigned a certain number of points, called Vaultage, which is based on the value of the placed links and the Google Pagerank of your site.

You can now use your Vaultage to build links pointing to your own websites and this is where Link Vault really offers great controls and functionality. You can specify nearly everything from the url to target, different anchor texts to the number of links that will be placed every day.

3. How Does It Help? Since Link Vault builds backlinks to your websites slowly over time (some every day) and allows many different anchor texts your link growth will seem more ""natural"" to search engines. Those will give your incoming links more value in return which will in the end help your search engine rankings more than any other link exchange program available. Of course, beside the search engine optimization benefits, the many links themselves will also increase your visitors.
