When another website links to your site, it essentially casts a vote in favor of the content on your site. The value of its vote depends on its own page rank. The more inbound links pointing to your website, the higher your page rank will be resulting in more natural search traffic directed toward your website.
However, as critical as it is to the success of your business, link building is also among the most time-consuming and frequently frustrating of all Internet marketing obligations. The goals of link building are centered on improving the visibility, reach & accessibility of Web content. Since links are the Web's primary system for directing traffic, the marketer's focus must be to improve their ability to drive that traffic - links create credibility, visibility & direction for the Web audience.
