One thing I’ve learned from working with SEO and link building for years:
Your main website shouldn’t be the only place where your brand exists online.
For many of my projects, I build a network of branded WEB 2.0 properties that support the primary website and strengthen the overall digital footprint.
My go-to platforms:
1. Google Sites
2. Blogger
3. WordPress
4. Wix
5. Ghost
6. Tumblr
7. Jimdo
8. Weebly
9. Webflow
10. About.me
I also use About.me as part of the strategy, although technically it’s more of a profile-based platform.
But the important part isn’t the platform list.
It’s how you build and use them.
I don’t create empty WEB 2.0 pages with a few paragraphs and a backlink.
I treat each property as a mini branded asset.
For each property, I try to build:
→ Brand information
→ Services & topical content
→ Original supporting articles
→ Consistent business information
→ Relevant internal/external links
→ Social profile connections
→ Natural references to the main website
The objective is to create a consistent digital footprint that helps search engines better understand:
Who the brand is → What the brand does → Where it operates → What topics it is relevant to.
And there’s another interesting benefit.
Some of these supporting properties can independently get indexed and rank for long-tail queries.
So instead of having only one URL representing your brand in SERPs, you can potentially have multiple relevant assets appearing around the same search ecosystem.
That’s why I see WEB 2.0 differently.
❌ Not just “create a page → add a backlink → done.”
~ Build the asset.
~ Add real content.
~ Build topical relevance.
~ Connect the entity ecosystem.
~ Keep the properties active.
The goal isn't to build more links.
The goal is to build a stronger brand presence across the web.
