    Link bait creation falls under the task of link building, and aims to increase the quantity of high-quality, relevant links to a website. Part of successful link baiting is devising a mini-PR campaign around the release of a link bait article so that bloggers and social media users are made aware and can help promote the piece in tandem. Social media traffic can generate a substantial amount of links to a single web page.

    Link Baiting has different types ..like
    News hooks,
    Infographics,
    Unique content hooks,
    Widgets hooks,
    Informational hooks,

    Linkbait is essentially a piece of content placed on a web page - whether it's an article, blog post, picture, or any other section of cyberspace - that is designed for the specific intention of gathering links from as many different sources as possible.

    Link bait is content on your site to which other sites link because they want to, not because you ask them to. Traditionally, links are hard to get, requiring you to sacrifice your first born child (and at least link back, which nullifies their value in some search engines.)

    Link bait is referring to a site on your article then letting that site know that you referred to them, with the aim that they will also link back to your site.

    Hope that helps. Have a good day!

    Link bait is any content or feature, within a website, designed specifically to gain attention or encourage others to link to the website. Matt Cutts defines link bait as anything "interesting enough to catch people's attention. Link bait can be an extremely powerful form of marketing as it is viral in nature.

    Say something amazingly ass-kissing about a blogger.

    Tweet that blog out to the blogger directly.

    They will link to you.

    Repeat that process 20 times ON THE SAME URL.

    You'll get 20 links to the same page.

    And you'll have one hell of a long blog post.
