Link Wheels & SEO

Posted on | February 9, 2010 | No Comments

I've been working on a link wheel for some of F+W's Numismatic websites lately.  What is a link wheel?

I built this out as a subdomain of a main site that I'm also building for them.

The main site was recently indexed by Google and is ranking #2 on page 1 of Google for a search on "online insurance benefits."
