Let’s assume you’ve been cruising around the internet looking for tips of Google optimization. You know that Google can bring the heat when it comes to delivering traffic to your website. Say you’ve been “getting links”, but apparently you just haven’t found the right one so far. Do you know what to look for?

A link from the top ranking page for a keyword is the best incoming link you can acquire, IMHO. It’s sort of obvious why. If you approached a professional for a recommendation to another professional, you’d also consider the merit of the person making the recommendation. The higher the regard you have for the referrer, the higher regard you’ll have for the referred service. The same concept applies to search engines. If you’re referred by the number one regarded resource in the subject, you’re likely to receive a heck of a boost to your own rankings.

How do you get a link on the page that already ranks number one? Chances are very good that you won’t, but keep looking in spots 2-100. The pages that already rank for your desired key phrase are the ones that will boost your rankings in Google the quickest. Google is a search engine that places a lot of “trust” in certain domains, and some of the trust rubs off on you when you get a link. That’s why you always have to look for links on well-respected domains.

It’s been said before, and it may seem corny, but the most likely method by which you’ll get authority style citations is by producing top-notch and unique content.
