Link Building offers your website wider search engine coverage
This includes some important paid search engines (such as MSN, Ask) that you might not have submitted your website to them. All search engines do not list your website for free, but would pick a link to your website from other websites they identify, and eventually list your website in their result pages.
Use Cases
A use case is a description of how users will perform tasks on your Web site.
A use case includes two main parts:
- The steps a user will take to accomplish a particular task on your site
- The way the Web site should respond to a user’s actions
A use case begins with a user’s goal and ends when that goal is fulfilled.
Description
A use case describes a sequence of interactions between a user and a Web site, without specifying the user interface.
Each use case captures:
- The actor (who is using the Web site?)
- The interaction (what does the user want to do?)
- The goal (what is the user’s goal?)
How do you write a use case?
Generally, you write the steps in a use case in an easy-to-understand narrative. This engages members of the design team and encourages them to be actively involved in defining the requirements.
Kenworthy (1997) outlines eight steps to developing use cases:
- Identify who is going to be using the Web site.
- Pick one of those actors.
- Define what that actor wants to do on the site. Each thing the actor does on the site becomes a use case.
- For each use case, decide on the normal course of events when that actor is using the site.
- Describe the basic course in the description for the use case. Describe it in terms of what the actor does and what the system does in response that the actor should be aware of.
- When the basic course is described, consider alternate courses of events and add those to “extend” the use case.
- Look for commonalities among the use cases. Extract these and note them as common course use cases.

Known more about Free for all linking.
A free for all (FFA) link page is a web page set up apparently to improve the search engine placement of a particular web site. Webmasters naturally will use software to place a link to their site on hundreds of FFA sites, hoping that the resulting incoming links will increase the ranking of their site in search engines. Experts in SEO techniques do not place greatly value on FFAs. First, most FFAs only maintain a small number of links for a short time, too short for most search engines to choose up. Second, the high “human” traffic to FFA sites is almost completely other webmasters visiting the web site to place their own links manually. Finally, search engine algorithms count more than link numbers, they also verify relevancy which the unrelated links on FFA sites do not have. Another drawback to FFAs is the number of spam e-mail webmasters will receive from members of the FFA.

Automated On-line Survey Methods
Evaluation of Web content effectiveness is difficult this is a given. And conducting surveys and interviews is time consuming and often costly. However there are other means to perform Level 2 evaluations (Evaluation Learning). In this module the focus is on the use of a type of statistic called Web metrics and novel ways to analyze them.
After completing this, you will be able to:
- Describe the difference between basic and advanced Web metrics.
- Explain why Web metrics are limited in what they can reveal.
- Discuss how Web log data can be re-conceptualized as a survey sample of Web visitors and why this is useful.
- Define the Maslow Hierarchy of Human Needs.
- Relate the Maslow Hierarchy to Kirkpatrick’s Four Levels of Evaluation.
- Explain how Maslow’s Hierarchy can be used to examine a user’s experience with your Web site.
- List the five “Traffic” indicators suggested by Darren Peacock and explain their significance.
