Linking from High Authority Sites

[PropertyPortal]

Dear Mozzes, We're running a property portal for real estate classifieds which receives around 300.000 visits monthly.

PA 47 DA 37 Mozrank 5,3 MozTrust 5,8 PR 4

Apart from our real estate classifieds we are producing proprietary trends and statistic, a rare commodity in the country we operate. Luckily we are about to enter into a partnership with one of the leading newspaper portals in the Country, appreciating PAs in the 80-90s.

In this coming partnership we will provide:

1. Market statistics, which we can imagine as a chart followed by our logo and a "Powered By", which shall link to our site.

2. An in-framed part of our site in their portal where we list properties for sale, that will carry affiliate strings.

In order to for us to get the maximum link value of this high authority site, how should we build the integration and linking?

We've looked at similar examples here

or maybe like the Simply Hired logo here:

Advices here would be super appreciated.

Thanks Eric

Interesting question Eric.

One of the first things I'd do is write up a professional press release to announce the partnership and post it on your partner's site.

This way, you get a nice contextual link from the newspaper.

And if your partnership ever goes sour, you'll always have that link.

Onto your question: I'd say go simple, like the Simply Hired example.

Remember: after the first link, links from the same domain aren't as powerful.

So you're goal should be to maximize the partner links for traffic and funneling PR...which a simple image link can do.
