LinkedWords - The “Social Networking Utility” for Web Sites

Yes, I am sure you are linked in. We are also linked in. Millions of people are also linked in across the popular social networking sites. However can you say the same for your web site? Is it linked in too? Can my web site also be linked in anyway, where? There are literally thousands of different social networking sites on Web today from small verticals to the big ones where people can connect to each other. What do you think it would be if there was the like of “social networking site” aimed at and meant for web sites instead of for people? Would not it be great for your web site? Come to think of it. We, ourselves, have been thinking that way for quite long time now.

LinkedWords.com is not the new kid on the block, it’s been around for several years now and represents a major contextual platform that has already proven itself effective in maximizing contextual linking among web sites across the Web. 

Can you however think of LinkedWords (LW) as “social networking site” aimed at and meant for web sites instead of for people? Well, we do. The way people connect to each other, gather together in family, friend and professional groups by interests at social networking utilities like Facebook, MySpace and LinkedIn the same thing web sites do at LinkedWords.

Here web sites get contextually linked in LW' platform on a content area level through targeted linked words to connect to each other on relevancy principles and group by context and by interests in an effort to become more visible and be found in context on web.

Networking your web site among and in competition with more than 100M web sites worldwide has never been an easy thing to do, but sites contextually linked in LW's platform are gathering together by context, relevancy and interests to stand out, share targeted communities, users, visitors and reach to potential clients all for free.

So it seems LW is the first and only “social networking site” not for people, but for web sites. In other words, LW does for web sites what popular social networking sites do for people. Interesting isn’t it?

Today, 2.5 years since its launch, LW is reaching more than 1M unique visitors per month, mainly shared among the sites linked in, thankfully to and derived from more than 100,000 content areas from around the Web contextually linked in its platform through targeted linked words. LW's platform capacity has some 38M more words organized in proper contextual paths that remain yet to be contextually linked in.

LinkedWords is now receiving more than 1 million unique visitors per month; keeps on growing

Launched back in the middle of 2006 LinkedWords has essentially proven over the past years to be very effective vehicle in helping web sites get contextually linked on a content area level so that Internet users and smart robots discover their information in context. Since then the contextual platform has rapidly grown from 30,000 uniques per month back in its early days during 2006 to over 1 million unique visitors per month these past months of 2008.

The successful formula seems to be simple yet very effective: the higher the number of small to mid level sites’ content areas contextually linked in LW’s platform - the higher the number of contextually targeted unique visitors shared among those web sites linked in.

Both Google Analytics and Quantcast measured traffic are now reporting for over 1,000,000 unique visitors per month.

Some interesting facts in regard to the site’s traffic and usage to note are:

1) The 400,000 unique visitors’ mark per month was surpassed for first time in April 2007;

2) For the entire 2007 LW ended up with more than 4,500,000 unique visitors to its contextual platform;

3) For the period of 12 months between Apr 2007 and Apr 2008 LW ended up with more than 7,700,000 unique visitors to its contextual platform;

4) The highest number of monthly visitors so far was encountered during the month of April 2008 when the platform had more than 1,300,000 uniques;

5) 47,564 is the highest number of daily unique visitors ever happened so far, which occurred on April 07, 2008;

This year (2008) was however not all glorious for LinkedWords. During the month of April '08 our platform has experienced an unprecedented growth in the traffic reaching over 1.3M unique visitors, which resulted in a failure on one of our servers causing major downtime. The impacted period was from Friday, April 25 to Friday, May 16, 2008. Millions of unique visitors to LW were affected for which we apologize again for any inconvenience this may have caused your contextual connections and thank you one more time for your understanding. It took us more than 4 months to completely recover both our platform and our reach.

Despite the major downtime that took place during the entire month of May ’08 and had later affected our traffic for a period of several months starting from May and ending on August ’08 considerably slowing it down the consolidated traffic for the entire 2008 is expected to be in the 10M range, which is double increase from 2007.
