The linkbaiting, this unknown. 
I decided to start this blog entry with a straight leg .
In the first post, and without any show, now suddenly a hot topic specific and very strange name: linkbaiting .
This is a useful technique when you want to start a new blog (like this) and is based in attract other bloggers , who may have started the blog from time to induce them to enter a link in your blog. Easy right? Not really.
To make the concept clear you personalize it and say 'I', owner of the new blog quipresente 'SEO Alfa' , I receive the interest of a handful of links from other bloggers . As I am a serious and respectful person, I avoid going around the net to include these links in personally other sites (a practice also very unseemly if not properly regulated). One way to accomplish this is to create some content say 'interesting' , drawing attention and producing some spontaneous link, any link that is voluntarily entered by the owners of other blogs in their own blog.
At this point a question arises, again, spontaneous because a blogger who visit my site 'SEO Alfa' and this post is 'interesting', should you point out in his blog and maybe dedicate a liked link? The answer is this: because the temptation is irresistible (though whether this last statement were hurting the feelings of our bloggers because of the attempt manipulative limitation of its free will , let me say that this is not the case: He does not feel psychologically induced, but must convince yourself, which is completely free to choose whether or not to give a link to this little, tiny newborn blog and much in need of loving care).
Before digress, perhaps I was saying that the temptation may be irresistible to link? To understand this last step of the argument, we think of as a blogger hungry fish that swims in the great oceans of the web. Find all but little of what he seeks: dall'insipido and little plankton nutrient (ie news items without his life wandering from one site to another), some indigestible waste of dead fish (piece of writing copy-pasted that runs for years). Then, at some point, sees an irresistible lure (ooops, I said bait or bait , which linkbaiting ?). Our fish can not resist, it pounces on its prey and ingurgita (but the prey was merely a decoy made deliberately to attract bloggers and to get some much-needed link).
Now get ready to fish, then. But
bait that we use? must be first noted that some techniques are prohibited and unsportsmanlike (besides, even in traditional fishing is prohibited the use of explosives or special networks). Even limiting the discussion to the lawful, however, the material is there. It starts with simple bait and clean up to a particularly aggressive type. Here (source
