Hey Kelvin,

Backlinking is a technical jargon.
what it simply means is other websites linking back to you.

There is a hyperlink(links) on someone’s website, where if a visitor clicks on it, they would go to your website. that’s it.

In summary, when people link [back] to you. It’s called backlinking.

hope this clarifies a little bit.

regards,
Ming Chern

Hey man,

Usually, you’ll get rejected by majority of the people anyways.

How I know? Cos I reject alot myself also mah… hehe…

So the idea is to send out to a lot of people. If you ask 100 people, and 1 link gets approved, it should be good.

In any case, concentrate on building quality content and increasing the value of your website.

Alternately, social networking sites also drive traffic. Google Page Rank is now a pretty poor indication of authority for anything below PR5.

So now I don’t bother, seriously…

hi ming chern, sometimes people just dont want to link to you i guess. cos you are like PR0 and they are PR3/4/5. or maybe they are selfish or something…

so i think we need to read up on some psychology stuff?
