18 Mar 09 Link Structures – Link Building Part 5
Many people got so anxious about their SEO works, that is no one to blame, we always wanted to see better and higher results. That’s the probably the only reason why you are actually reading this blog too. SEO is not a overnight work and if you rush it, you could crash it.
Speaking of link structures, you need to know two important things. They are
- Natural Link &
- Artificial Link Structure
Easily, Natural links must look naturally linked to each another whereas Artificial link structure will definitely look like we plan and create it. Natural links are actually valid and even when search engine variables and algorithms change, they might still be valid. Because once there is a new PR update, many people actually dropped their ranking as well as SERPs, and they will complaint rather than looking back what they have done in the past. It is generally because they did not build Natural Links in the past.
So, what are the differences between Natural Link and Artificial Link?
- Natural link tends not to be reciprocal whereas artificial links are.
- Natural link grows in number gradually whereas artificial link grows suddenly.
- Natural link anchor text varies whereas artificial link anchor text still the same.
Therefore, avoid your links to become artificial link structure, because they are easy to be discounted in search engine world. Also, do not exchange links in web ring and link farms. In short, the link that are ranked high in PR or SERPs are the links that are not orchestrated to be seen, favors the links that are useful, great content and informative to be found. You may as well have known that buying links and selling links to earn votes is not allowed in most search engines.
In conclusion, the most important thing about link structure is when building your link, all the search engine cherish your natural link structure and they actually dislike/discount your artificial link structure.

well, when you aim to get obvious backlinks to your site, search engine bots will consider those are artificial link structure, so, they may not give those links as quality backlinks and may not credit you for PR.
hope that helps

well, the reason is
in google, they used backlinks as only qualified backlinks.. but granted, there are many unqualified backlinks indexed in google as well.
for yahoo, they generally call backlinks, yes, you probably have more than 2000, but they are actually pointing back to your site as a backlinks, I would personally call them “point links” that are pointing back, and generally do not give many value in Yahoo SERPs too.
For example, you get backlinks from me, that’s for sure, as a comment, your backlink is artificial link and will have little value, however, definitely more value than no-follow sites.. But at least, you will have one more backlinks in google from me as my quality of site is getting better, will as yours.
People forgot that unique and original content plays big role in PR but always thinking about short cuts and finally faced devaluations of their PR. If we all build correctly and properly, we will get better in link building and it is absolutely required for the long term as well.

Artificial backlinks are not very helpful, I am pretty sure because when you google link:yoursite
you will see google’s official backlinks, if you try to build based on your credited backlinks, you can get more natural links and it will help you get better pagerank.
hope that helps
