How to Rank Well Without Inlinks

The idea that you cannot be found on the web if there are no inlinks to one's site was recently the subject of a debate between myself and a fellow geek. My response was that one does not need ANY links to have a good ranking. This myth about inbound links (at least in my view it's a myth) is silly.

  1. Between embedded tracking code for Webmaster Tools and Analytics, your site will be indexed by Google and other engines will follow.
  2. If you do not use tracking code then embed a video.
  3. If you have no embeded code whatsoever, GOOGLE WILL FIND YOU simply because your server is in a range sharing other sites.
  4. If you have a dedicated server and no embedded code, Google will still find you IF YOU MAKE OUTBOUND LINKS from your site!
  5. You have no outbound links, no embedded code and a dedicated server - Google will find you within 3 months at the longest.

Now to the idea of ranking well with no inlinks: The answer is one can rank very well without PageRank or links with keywords pointing to you. How? Simply by having the following:

  1. Good content
  2. Deep content
  3. Patience to get out of the sandbox.
