LinkAssistant

Keeping a website among the top ranking websites on Google or Yahoo involves countless hours of searching for similar websites and filling in forms to exchange links. If you wish to make this tedious task faster and easier, then you should definitely try LinkAssistant. It can find similar websites for you, based on a few keywords. It also gives you the possibility of managing the found websites, viewing their rankings, assigning different statuses and much more.

LinkAssistant is part of a larger collection of useful tools, which are available in Free, Professional and Enterprise versions, for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux platforms. All programs can be installed on a computer, using the same setup file. You can choose which program to install, during the setup procedure.

Once you launch LinkAssistant, a wizard will help you get started. First, you need to specify your website's URL, after which the program will look up and gather certain details about your site and use it in your project. Finally, you must type in an anchor text, a short description and your contact information. When you are done with the initial setup, you will find a blank user interface, on which the program will display all found websites.

To search for websites that are similar to your own, you must follow another wizard's instructions. You can decide to look for any similar websites, sites with link submission forms, which link to your competitor's website or other types of sites. Next, you must add a few keywords, establish a few conditions if you need to and let the software search for potential link partners. The found websites are displayed in a table of contents, along with all sorts of useful details, like page ranks on various search engines, backlink pages, contact names and email addresses, and more. You can filter the information or customize your own work space, to view the information you need.

You can visit a listed web page or its backlink page with your preferred browser, but you can do much more with LinkAssistant's internal browser. The software can take you directly to a website's link submission form, which can be filled in automatically, with a single click. You can assign various statuses to the listed websites. Thus, you will always know which partners link back to you, if a link request is sent, if you fill out a form and so on.

Obviously, if you want another website to link to yours, you must do the same on your own site. LinkAssistant can help you create a link directory for all partners. The best part is that you don't need to type a single line of code in an HTML editor. You can choose to include or exclude various items, including a link to your own submission form. If someone fills in your form, LinkAssistant will notify you and you may add the new partner to the list with a single click.
