Linkbaiting is today an essential SEO tool if you are looking to improve the positioning of your site in search engine rankings. Although the practice has been around for some time now, the incidence of it has increased dramatically over the past year. This is largely because good linkbait can really improve the level of traffic to your site and garner those all-important links that could greatly improve your rankings.
So what is linkbaiting?
Linkbaiting is a number of techniques and practices that are all placed under the one umbrella by webmasters, all of which have the aim of attracting links from various relevant spaces, forums, blogs and sites across the Internet. Those techniques and practices may include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Competitions/Awards
• Embedded Tool Links
• Informative And Entertaining Articles
• Highly Controversial Comments/Blog Posts
All of the above linkbaiting techniques can be used in a very positive way so as not to be detrimental to the credibility of any website.
So what can you expect to achieve?
Linkbaiting has a number of benefits, some of which are immediately visible and some that take time to manifest themselves. For example, a good piece of linkbait can bring thousands of visitors to your site straight away but the links generated will obviously not increase your page rank overnight.
In the short term, linkbaiting will attract both primary and secondary visitors, with the former linking to the linkbait and the latter finding it via those links from primary visitors. If your site is commercial, this will also bring an increase in revenue generated. In the long term though, it is the page rank that matters. The more sites that link to you, the more important your site is considered to be and the higher it will ranked, especially if those links are strictly one way (the type of links that linkbaiting achieves). Of course, there other factors involved in the ranking of your page, but linking is an important one.
And so if you are looking to increase the traffic to your website, the page rank and the revenue it generates, linkbaiting is an important component of any strategy.
