1. Directory Link Service - an important online marketing tool.

Getting directory links which link to your site from relevant Internet directories is one of the most valuable "off page" things you can do to to help your ranking with the search engines.

Links from trusted Internet directories will help your website's own "trust" factor with the search engines.  Every link from a directory is a "vote" for your site. 

Directory links are valuable in that you get a one way link from another website and do not have to link back to that directory as per a "Link Exchange". 

Note that this is a long term strategy so you need to take the long view.  It takes time and effort to get good quality incoming links to your website and it takes time for the search engines to credit you for those links. 

2. Link Exchange Service - excellent for drawing traffic to your site.

Link exchange means that you link to sites relevant to your site and they link back. This, as the Directory Link Service, makes your site more "important" to the search engines and it is  an important marketing tool.  A minimum of 5 links are added to your site each month.

3. Pay Per Click Service - becomming more and more important.

This method of marketing can start attracting traffic immediately. You pay per click so the marketing is targeted. You specify the budget (a monthly sum of R200.00 is recommended). Please note that to your budget of R200.00 for the Pay Per Click you need to add the amount of R200.00 per month to administer the service and the setup cost of R350.00
