Link BaitingThere is something in the realm of link building called “link baiting,” a process whereby links appear by themselves. You don’t ask anyone to link to your webpage, you don’t submit your site anywhere, but new inbound links appear every day.

How is that possible? Below are some ways to make this happen for your own site.

One of the best ideas for link baiting is to create an extensive resource list for something specific that your visitors will find most useful. Think about what that could be, do your research, and create that resource list.

Another similar idea is to create a “101” list for your particular topic. These kinds of lists are doing pretty well in social network marketing; they too generate linkbacks easily.
