Reciprocal Links
Effective 1 January 2006, we provide reciprocal links for related websites with a Google Page Ranking of 1 or better free of charge. Sites with lower rankings may purchase a reciprocal link for $5 per year. We do this for two reasons: first, Christmas sites come and go quickly. A higher ranked site has a chance of being around longer and that link thus serves our site users better. Second, we have worked hard to achieve our own page rank and do not want to diminish that accomplishment by linking to sites that would degrade our ranking. To submit your link for consideration, please see this link.
Sponsored Links
New sites and sites looking to sell to our audience are encouraged to purchase links available on various locations of our site. Please see our rate card for more information.
LinkChristmas.com
We do maintain a Christmas-only link directory at Link Christmas.com. This search-engine optimized site is the World's Biggest Directory of Christmas Links.
MerryLinks.com
We do maintain a Christmas-only link directory that is user-managed. Our team of volunteer linkmasters will approve your link as long as it is Christmas relevant and fits within our established categories. These links are free of charge.
The Merry Top 50
We encourage all Christmas site owners to join the Merry Top 50 -- our topsite of the best Christmas sites online. A topsite is a list of websites that ranks sites based upon votes. When you register for the site you get a tiny bit of HTML code to add to your page that will show the Merry Top 50 button. (We are on the Merry Top 50 as well, our button is located in the left margin of all our site pages). Every time a site user clicks on the button on your site it counts it as a vote. The more vote your site gets the higher you move up on the list. The Merry Top 50 is a free service and, as one of the longest running Christmas topsites online, you will get plenty of Christmas visitors by joining it.
Feature Linking
We frequently quote or mention websites in our articles. We sometimes ask other website owners for interviews, which also results in links. In our newletters and on affliate sites we sometimes provide site reviews for other sites online. Any links we use in these projects are free of charge.
Shared Content
We are very interested in establishing partnerships with other Christmas websites. If you have content that you would like to showcase on our site, please contact us to discuss your idea. Typically, we prefer to share content one-for-one between sites. Such arrangements we have worked in the past have been very beneficial for all parties.
