Get FREE quality backlinks and traffic with Qassia
Qassia is a site where you can submit articles or stories to (oh no, not this type of site again!?). Wait, there’s a bit of difference with Qassia.com.
In Qassia, you can submit any articles (they call it “Intel”) that you can think of. Whether it’s about a local restaurant, information about a person, a place, or anything, it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t even have to be a “quality” post, I may say. After it’s submitted, it has to be rated by other members (at least 12) for it to go “live” on Qassia’s directory. Once it’s “live”, your site (which you entered on your profile) will get back links from Qassia and also traffic, when a reader reads your post and click on the link to go to your site/blog.
Submit an article and have your blog/site displayed and back-linked at the bottom
In Qassia, you can earn Qassia dollars. You earn more dollars by submitting more Intel or rating other people stories. The “richer” you are, the higher your posts will rank on Qassia directories. At some point in the future, I’m sure this currency can be used for something else.
A question that makes me wonder is: you’ll get unlimited back links from Qassia.com, depending on how many articles you have submitted to it. What I’m not sure is (and if you are an SEO expert, please share your view here), I thought that it doesn’t matter how many back links that you get from one site. It will always be counted as 1 back link by Google, am I right?
I got 2 Backlinks by submitting 2 articles to Qassia.com
Nevertheless, Qassia worth’s a try. You can also submit an article from your own site/blog. Simply copy pastes yours and submits “a new Intel” at Qassia. Yes, it is allowed. For a one minute work, you’ll get back links and possibly traffic if people like your Intel.
Qassia.com is currently still in private beta but has more than 10,000 members now. If you want to join Qassia.com and give it a go, you can get a closed invitation from my profile page at Qassia here (use the Register button on the left).

Mike,
I will certainly give this a test. I believe firmly that you must try it in order to see if it’s a value add.
Thank you
This is the first time I heard about Qassia. I might give this one a try.

LOL can I “hijack” your “thread” by plastering my Qassia link here? :p

I think I signed up for this under Reward Rebel quite a long time before, sometime in January 2008 perhaps?
Turnip wrote a short report about this, let me dig it up …

I think that’s the one.
He is of opinion that Qassia might not be worth the time spent in writing up quality articles.
Might be a good method to game page rank methinks?

Well I’ve submitted 4 articles yesterday (2 short ones and 2 from my blog).
My Google Analytics told me of 7 visits coming from qassia.com. It’s not bad. It may sound little, but every visit counts!
Hi Michael. This is another great tip you posted. You got me coming back for more…lol
Thanks for dropping by my site. Have a wonderful day…
Rhea Calma’s last blog post..I’m having a bad hair day…
This is the first that I am hearing of Qassia. It sounds interesting, I’m going to go over for a read.
I was thinking about your question about multiple links only counting as one. Perhaps it works like Technorati, wherein you can collect muliple links from the same site and when one link falls off every six months, one of the others then counts.
Shelia’s last blog post..Update: Sony Ericsson Open Round 3
@Rhea: Thanks for coming by too, Rhea!
@Shellia: ah.. I didn’t know that much about Technorati. Thanks for sharing a new info to me!
Hi Michael, Great information. I will try now. Thanks

Don’t be too much worried about links. It is usually considered that the more links Google sees, the more traffic you get. But back links can easily be achieved by keeping fresh and unique and original content on the site. A site that has freshly and regularly updated content attracts more traffic. If users are impressed and satisfied with your content they will automatically cast a vote. The most important thing is not code, not page rank but the content. It is said “Content is the king” The greatest challenge should be to create websites that are useful to others. Palcomonline.com
Thanks, Palcom. A nice advice
