Widgets against deep linking

Most widgets will take traffic away from you - as well as many blogrolls - when i do a search for my website using the site name the many other sites come up because that sitename is embedded in theirs as a link - so your pagerank goes up from such reciprocal linking but not in the sense of Deep Linking and other sites get to take some of your result standings (positions) through use of yout site name or link word used embedded. I sugggest that you use your sitename embedded in links on your own site too and also to embed your keywords as links to your sites in forums and other websites and blogs (comments) that receive lots of traffic - as well as including the url of your website in your profile or signature, this will increase your traffic greatly. Of course, you should also post on relevant sites that are topic related to yours, so the traffic that visits your site is optimized, and will be interested in the content of your site. Reciprocal linking is great for pagerank and also traffic (if the site linking to you displays your link visibly to a highly visited page), but it also has a disadvantage of stealing page position in the search results from you. Deep linking however also gets you in the search engines, and brings you direct traffic if posted in the right places at the right time, and on the relevant subjects. :)
