Types of Link Partnership
Before Google hit the scene big time in the early 2000s all linking partnerships between sites was for traffic reasons. You might find a site that offered a complementary but non-competitive service and do a link swap (reciprocal link) between the two sites.
Since the rise in dominance and importance of Google, it is necessary to employ linking strategies that avoid direct reciprocal links if maximum value it to be achieved. That is not to say that a good traffic bearing or similar themed reciprocal link is to be avoided.
If you can arrange different types of links (like those listed below) your site, and your partners will appear higher in the search engine rankings as a result.
One Way Link Partnership
This is the simplest type of link. You have got a one way link to your site from another.
You are not giving a link back in return. This is the best type of link. For a link like this from another site look at submit article - you control the content of the linking page.
Reciprocal Link Partnership
