I have a website and I started link baiting methods to get more world wide web exposure. I was amazed to see that within 45 days I reached to first page from fourth page of SERP for my primary keyword. Client was so happy that he gave me bonus! I have started this thread to share my link baiting experience and to get more feedbacks. The strategy I followed: I conducted online survey and using the data made a press release. The release spread virally giving me great press exposure. I wrote negative for my own business and asked people to tell me what changes they want in the system to make it more effective. We distributed free stuffs on the website using a simple squeeze page. All these things took 1 month to implement and finally in few more months time, I was on first page. Please share you such experiences so that we can use them in our SEO activities...
I think the hardest part is just coming up with something unique and useful that people want to link to it. Then it is just a matter of getting it in front of the right eyes that have the desire to help spread it. It is amazing what just one well placed link can achieve for a website.
In field of finance, it is very easy to spread the content. Use numbers or figures to make a blogpost. There are many blogs just waiting for the new content. if the blogs are on wordpress, there is a great chance of them getting cached by Google immediately giving SEO benefits to the original blog....
