10 GENIUS WAYS TO BUILD INBOUND LINKS
AND DRIVE TRAFFIC TO YOUR SITE.
10. Create resource lists
This type of content is awesome for your readers and makes for great link bait. If you put all the work into creating a resource list than the chances are other people will simply opt to link to your list as opposed to put in all the mad work to re-create the list.
9. News jack
When you are the first to blog about something that's breaking you rise to the best position in SERP's due to Google's Freshness algorithm. Doing this makes it far more likely that others will simply link to your content.
8. Survey Says
Run a survey, get buckets of participants... loads of data and then share it freely. Or ... find ways to rope in experts to collaborate on the results - then interview the experts to produce the output of the survey that you then share freely. Or... don't share it freely just yet. Send the results to some high ranked sites and let them promote it (while giving you inbound links in the process)
7. Review a book, venue, speakerIf you provide a comprehensive review
about another author or venue's content, there's a good chance they (and others!) will link to it.
6. Conduct a free webinar
And post an archived copy online. If it’s informative, it will be shared.
5) Create a presentation
Make it visual... sexy and easy to whip through.... try a SlideShare prezzie kind of like this one!
4) Create a meme
Super easy... and there are quite a few websites that will help you with most of the magic. People are visual. So give them visuals they will want to share.
3) Find ways to promote others...… and they will want to do the same
for you. Joint Press Releases work wonders here. Double the content being PR'd and you potentially double the readership and types of people you get in front of.
2) Social widgets
make it ridiculously easy for people to share your branded content.
1) Collaborate with Perfectly Social...
… we're very keen to make sure our partners get far more out of the relationship than we do ;)
