Show off your site's page by linking to it

Another way to increase your search engine optimization is by linking your site to others. AboutUs offers several "badge" choices to put on your website that link back to your AboutUs article. Read more about AboutUs badges on our blog.

If you would like to let your website visitors know more about you through your AboutUs article, you are warmly welcomed to put one of these badges onto your site. These are some of the latest favorites:

Add this badge to your site with the following HTML. This code links directly to your AboutUs article! It's quick, easy, and a great way to create community:

white background:

<a href="http://www.aboutus.org/YourWebsiteDomainName.com">
<img src="http://images.aboutus.org/images/9/9d/auBadge_B.png" border="0">
</a>

transparent background:

<a href="http://www.aboutus.org/YourWebsiteDomainName.com">
<img src="http://images.aboutus.org/images/9/91/auBadge_trans_80x110.png" border="0">
</a>

Paste this code into your site's HTML. Then change YourWebsiteDomainName.com to be your domain name. For example, if your web site was http://www.example.com, then your website domain name is just example.com.

The image will link over to the AboutUs article for whatever website domain you add the code to.

More Badge Choices

You can also choose one of these alternative badges. The code and instructions for using it are the same as above except for the image url.

Dynamic Widget

With this code you can get a dynamic widget that will tell people about your website, pulling from the tags and top summary on the site's AboutUs.org page. It can be used in blog posts or on a website.

Make sure to change YourWebsiteDomainName.com to the website you want the widget to be about. More on the AboutUs widget
