My amazing FREE way to get thousands of natural links for free

    This tip is totally amazing and has helped me get thousands of links for free.

    Basically what you need to do is get your site ranked well in Google Images and then when people come to your site looking for images you allow them to hotlink the images as long as they link back to you.

    Imagine somebody arrives wanting an image for their myspace page. The first thing they see is some code to cut and paste to include the image:
    They install the code and you get a link.:D If this happens 100 times per day you get 700 natural links per week.

    Make sure you have a lot of bandwidth first.

    The full script for doing this technique is posted on my blog along with an example of how the script works. The key is to only show the code to people who come from Google Images so as not to upset your readers. We are releasing a Wordpress plugin to do this next week - check the blog for details.

    Any questions please post here or in the blog comments.:cool:

    I figured it might not work in a few browsers. It gets most of the people who are likely to be hotlinking images though.

    Good new idea, My requirement is this, lets say if I write a program to display visitors country flag . I host all flag images , but they need to call it like above "<a href=mydomain" ,
    But they can just remove that tag ,and use only the image .Can we restrict only these request..

    If your site doesn't have interesting pictures it's unlikely that people will want to take them to use on their sites. My suggestion is for all sites to use interesting pictures as often as they can.

    You are quite right that people can just choose to remove the link and just take the image. However the type of people browsing Google Images and hotlinking the pictures they find probably won't bother to remove the link code and won't realise they are linking to your site. They will be happy that you have provided them with some code to cut and paste.

    If you want to turn off hotlinking you can do in cpanel or htaccess. I always use unlimited bandwith hosting so its never an issue.

    but that may take up huge bandwidth of yours so it's better to have unlimited bandwidth

    most people does not want hotlink just that reason. It will suck you dry of bandwith if the other site is popular

    The full script is posted here, it works best on php sites.

    If you don't have a php site you would need to hard code the script into each page.

    If anybody can't figure out how to do this from the instructions PM me with your url and the page(s) you want to install it on.:)

    If you are worried about bandwidth you could always use one of the free image hosting sites like photobucket.

    You could but the original image on your site would need to be hosted on your site otherwise it won't get ranked highly in Google Images.

    Also, doesn't photobucket cap bandwidth as well?
