Now-a-days, most WebMaster's understand the importance of trading links with other sites. Afterall, besides the obvious logic of "The more roads to the site - the more visitors" - trading links has great Search Engine Ranking benefits. Which have been proven many times before, so I will skip going into any long "Statistics prove...." talk. (If you want more info see our good friend Google.)
Anyway, so what is the title all about? Well... me being over-zealous in my link trading. ;)
Ok, because I foresee the need to upgrade my hosting to handle larger loads I have been doing some research. thewhir.com posted an article called The Web Host Marketing Roundup in which several of the top hosting companies were reviewed in terms of growth. MediaTemple had the largest growth. One of the reasons is probably because sites that use MT usually have a (mt) logo on them (like the 9rules sites!).
