    While we know that Google is cracking down on Paid links as they have penaltise multiple popular sites along with lowering the Pagerank of many sites. This actions send a message that we need to stop (Obvious Paid Linking), and go toward more of genuine links. Now my definition of genuine links is organic link which was linked because you had something interesting on your website. How the heck will you get something interesting? The process of getting links through the interesting topic of your website for free is called Link-baiting. This idea has been around for quiet some time, but it still works.


    I am going to show why this is important with search engine and how you can put it in effective use.

    Feel free to read the article:

    Self promotional at best, just like this thread. You don't even scratch the surface into link baiting.

    If you do it right it does work and help sites. It takes more work than most people think.

    Agreed. Plus, your article is really boring, heh.

    I'm launching a site in a few months where ppl can do linkbait brainstorming or if
    you prefer, "great content" brainstorming.

    What I have so far can be seen in my sig.

    open to feedback.

    Read your article - I don't think you clearly describe what link baiting is...
