Sure-Fire Techniques for Linkbaiting

We all want to be linked. Links builds the internet, no links no web. Now all we have to do is get a part of those links to stand-out in this big, king-size, enormous, large, oversized web ;-) But how?

Link building is the hardest part of SEO, 80% of your work should be into link building if you want to get higher search engine rankings. Now, that could be hard and that can eat a lot of time brother! So, what we have to do is let your readers do that 80% of hard work!

Linkbaiting, it’s easy to say that Linkbaiting is easy but the truth is, it’s quite hard. You need to build a superior article or an extremely huge list. But you could also try it the easy way. Making funny videos or quotes, the problem is: do you have the guts to do it? Well, if not you could stick to the article/list way. A good example of this is Steve Pavlina. I mean, man! He writes articles as long as 7000 words!

You could also try creating a controversial story, funny and unique. And entertain your readers. After writing your great article, you then make a headline. I’ll tell you, if you worked 3 hours on your article, work also 3 hours on that headline. Headlines are very important because almost all readers judge article by their headline.

Ok, ok, I’ll give you an example, what’s better?

Campaigns are fully customized and 100% transparent ensuring you’ll achieve your business goals.

Instead of simply getting website visitors, it concentrates more on delivering quality leads and sales.

High-Quality SEO companies only do white-hat SEO. These are strategies that are in line with the terms and conditions of the search engines. That means there’s no chance of being penalized through it. While White-Hat SEO requires more time and effort because it requires manual and quality work, it always pays off in the long run.

Offers “affordable” packages of P10,000, P20,000, etc. Ask yourself, is it really affordable if you don’t get results?

Uses vague and technical-sounding terms to sound good. Words like “Robots.txt generation” and “Google Analytics integration.” However, in reality, a good SEO specialist can do this in just under 5 minutes.

Guarantees #1 ranking on Google. Sketchy SEO companies that say that they have a “special relationship” with Google and offers priority submission and the like. Read more about it here.

Offers a one-size-fits all SEO campaigns without considering your business’ objectives.

Since they won’t be able to reach their over promises, some may resort to giving you fake results by directing bots to your site so that it appears that you’re getting more visitors. Remember, always look for results–may it be leads, results, and/or rankings.
