Be Specific
Instead of writing a page about Limousines, focus your services on a bigger section and then split it out into more sub-sections:
● Limousine Rental in Miami● Stretch limousine rental in Miami● Hummer limousine rental in Miami

Link Building = Recommendations
whitesharkmedia.com [email protected]
Good recommendations
Bad recommendations
Relevant, somebody of authority
“He would know”
How does this fit in?
“If he recommends it, then I don’t know”

Stay Away From Low Quality Links
”I do you, you do me” Link building

”What if I pay you?” Link building
”I’ll take anything!” Link building
”Everybody else is doing it” Link directories
Don’t wait for links, but not everything counts
