New ASP Redefines Internet Reciprocal Linking Strategies

January 23, 2001 (INB) -- LinksManager.com http://linksmanager.com, a new Application Service Provider, allows webmasters to harness the power of reciprocal linking to get the most out of their links pages. Every element - including adding new links, editing existing links, finding dead links and confirming reciprocal links - has been automated to save webmasters time.

In development for more than three years and with a patent pending, LinksManager.com is a unique service that gives users the tools to easily manage all facets of a full reciprocal linking campaign. No software downloads or installations are required, and a new account setup can be performed in less than 30 minutes. Webmasters can import their current links pages into their LinksManager account, or they can start new pages from scratch. A point-and-click cosmetics engine lets webmasters visually match their links pages with the rest of their website or create a bold new look from scratch. Most importantly, LinksManager eliminates the need for arduous, time-intensive HTML coding and can be run from any web browser with an Internet connection.

Two specific features of LinksManager shine above all others. The Reciprocal Link Checker automatically looks for links on the linking webmasters' sites. A daily report shows who is reciprocating and who is not. With one mouse click, a LinksManager account owner can remind all webmasters who are not linking back to the site to reciprocate. Another standout feature is the LinksManager Dead Link Checker. This feature scans a site's links pages, flags dead links for review, and removes them from the website until they become available. Websites powered by LinksManager will never contain links to long-closed or inactive websites.

After years of time-consuming efforts to maintain his own links pages, the idea for LinksManager was borne "...out of necessity", says Joel Lesser, CEO of Creative NetVentures, Inc., developers of LinksManager. "We've always known that reciprocal link campaigns are an excellent way to generate site traffic. But before LinksManager, maintaining a quality links page was very labor-intensive, requiring a tremendous amount of attention and effort. Unfortunately, most webmasters fail to achieve the benefits of a good reciprocal link campaign because they're just too busy to take care of all the necessary details. That's where LinksManager comes in."

The new service was designed with two main goals in mind: first, to simplify webmasters' daily operations by automating time-consuming or routine tasks. And second, to add value to their website by making their links pages interactive with state-of-the-art functionality.

Account owners will never be far from professional assistance. Developed by webmasters for webmasters, LinksManager.com offers an online support forum staffed by LinksManager gurus 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Users can even earn their service for free by referring other webmasters to LinksManager.com.

Lesser says, "Both expert and novice webmasters are very excited about the doors this service opens. The question is, what are all these webmasters going to do with all their free time?"
