Hello, welcome to this episode of The UnNoticed Entrepreneur. Today, we are going to a place called"Rockville, Maryland" in America, and we're gonna meet Farzad Rashidi, who is a Co-Founder of a company called "Respona". Farzad, you are gonna help us to understand the sort of curious black art of "backlinks" because link building is something that some of us know a little bit about, and you know, a lot more than we do. So I'd love for you to share with us, how does "Respona" help the unnoticed entrepreneur to get noticed? So, the way Google works, the core algorithm, Google is kind of like a spider that crawls the web. And when other relevant websites in your space that contains some authority themselves, link back to you, mention you and talk about you, that's, and I assure Google is a "vote of popularity" and that helps your general or domain authority, as we said in any types of industry to increase, and that also increases your likelihood from your own website pages to start getting rankings for Google. So let me walk through an example. One of the simplest examples of a link building campaign, which most SEOs don't even consider it as then building, is what I'm doing right now. Being a guest on another podcast. Believe it or not, that is an SEO strategy. Let me take it step-by-step. So when I come on as a guest on the show, your website is going to put up the episode with the transcription and potentially links to "Respona" ultimately mentioning me and the company that I come from. So when Google crawls that new page that you put on your site and sees, "Okay, Jim is a smart person with carries a level of authority and is vouching for Respona.""He's had their Founder on the page and is linking to their website. And he's mentioning them, is talking about them." So that is another vote of popularity. And we get value. And you also get a link to your website that also helps your search pages to have a higher chance of getting up into search results. So kind of strategies like this where you basically building mutual beneficial collaborations. It's kind of the basis for any sort of link building campaign, and that's kind of something that led to the creation of "Respona" that helped us sort of streamline that entire process from discovery, to finding the right person, getting into context, and outreach. There's a simple rule of thumb. If it's easy to get, it's no good. If his hard to get, it's good. So anybody can go on Twitter and Facebook and just post a bunch of things and link back to their site. So Google never prioritizes them. So they developed a tag called "No follow" back in, I guess 10, 20 years ago, that all of these social media user-generated content, ads, forum links, Reddits, you know, Quora, all sorts of social media, and none of them actually carrying sort of weight. Now this is just a trailer for a full 20 minute show. The show will be dropping into your feed in the next day or so. So do look out for it and do enjoy it, share it, and review it. Thanks for listening to this trailer of The UnNoticed Entrepreneur.
