Deep link analysis and Deep Link Ratio (DLR)

Deep link analysis and Deep Link Ratio (DLR)

You may remember, that back in Summer 2004 I first wrote about deep linking strategies, offered deep link packages for placing multiple anchors and target pages within one package.


If you are unsure what Deep Links are come back after reading that introduction.

Without further details we fast saw that deep linking improves indexing and overall link diversity and campaing performance.

This UK SEO company explains how they calculate a very useful "Deep Link Ratio (DLR)" using Yahoo queries – check your site against your competitors and you will be puzzled…

WeBuildPages have a nice tool to find the DLR ratio for your major keywords

After maybe finding out that your competitors have very high DLRs (many deep links) you may want to consider two steps

A) download the free edition of Web Ceo to check you competitors backlinks per page ( you can crawl his site and then do a page by page analysis) ... I just found out about that function some days ago… the overal tool is a premium kw ranking tool for professional SEO services as it helps you saving a lot of time with good reporting functions, proxy database, etc.etc.

B) remember that I was the first to offer such multi-anchor deep link packages and contact me for some tailored deep link packages

C) or search for a "Deep Text Link Broker" on Google… :-)
