How to Attract Links and Increase Web Traffic – The Ultimate Guide

by Brian Clark

Links and traffic… who wants some?

The number of excellent resources that have come out since the beginning of the year on attracting links and building traffic has really mushroomed. Plus there are some timeless classics that are still very relevant today.

I think it makes sense to compile the very best in one handy location and share it, so here’s my entire collection. If I missed your link and traffic resource let me know and I’ll take a look.

Now, it doesn’t matter if you like the term “link baiting” or not. It’s the process that one goes through to attract links that matters, not whether you prefer to think of your content as bait for links. I like to think that creating content that increases web traffic and builds links simply falls under the general social media optimization marketing buzz phrase that is gaining in popularity.

So, here’s your ultimate “how to” guide to creating content that attracts links and drives traffic in the social media environment:

1 Richard September 20, 2006 at 1:58 pm

And how many links will this link bait post get?

As always, thank you for your excellent (self-reinforcing) post!

2 Brian September 20, 2006 at 2:01 pm

Richard, I’m sure I have no idea what you’re talking about. :)

Thanks!

3 Lee Odden September 20, 2006 at 2:05 pm

I’d like to think these posts about driving links and traffic would qualify for this list:
Link Building for Blogs
10 Creative Traffic Building Ideas
25 Tips for Marketing Your Blog
But then again, I’m biased and this is Brian’s post - not mine. :)

4 Brian September 20, 2006 at 2:08 pm

Lee, your first one is already up there… don’t think I would leave you out. :)

I’ll look at the other two as well… these have just been my bookmarks I’ve collected over time, so I’m quite sure there are others that qualify.

5 Lee Odden September 20, 2006 at 2:21 pm

I totally missed that - thank you for including it Brian - this is a very bookmarkable list!

6 Dharmesh Shah September 20, 2006 at 2:47 pm

Though I appreciate the list (and I’ve filed it away for future reference), the sheer volume of stuff is a little daunting.

I’m wondering if from a “blogging strategy” perspective, you would have gotten more people to read this if it had broken up into smaller “chunks”. Or, a “best of the best” list.

Then again, who cares about that, it’s useful the way it is. :)

7 canocao September 20, 2006 at 3:02 pm

I’ve used all these methods to bait links to my site. Many of these work well.

Thanks.

Not an exact match, but I wonder if this one might fit -

10 Cristian Mezei September 20, 2006 at 7:00 pm

Brian, great list. Most of them, already read and knew by most, altough some are still good for any veteran out there.

I am sure that this small guide on link buildingis of no great importance :p

11 John A. Manley September 20, 2006 at 7:44 pm

Maybe this is covered, but a good tip for building links is setting up a spot on MySpace. It’s free. That website is one of the popular online, so just having a link back to your site will help your page ranking in the search engines.

This month, I just started taking SEO seriously. Thanks for the post.

John:

The SEO benefits from a myspace profile are minimal unless the particular profile also gets backlinks. The search engines know to discount links on popular sites that anyone can make an account on. The trick is to find sites that the Search engines have Not yet discounted and put your links on those sites.

But a myspace profile is a good idea from a branding prospective for many sites.

13 limcs September 20, 2006 at 9:58 pm

Nice coverage, Brian.

Not to forget to use the power of free press release to get more exposure and backlinks:

Press Release Quick and Easy Guide
An Indepth Look Into Free Press Release Site

14 Brian September 20, 2006 at 10:01 pm

Good call. I’ve got that addressed in the Viral Copy collection of resources, but breaking the topic out is probably smart.

15 Jason September 20, 2006 at 10:48 pm
16 Martin September 21, 2006 at 1:14 am

Brian … nice “How To” with lots of useful links, a sure bookmark must with a digg it button. ;)

17 Dominic September 21, 2006 at 3:07 am

Thanks for the Article Marketing tips. I reckon it really pays to have everything sorted out for your resource box so you can convert as many visitors as possible.

18 Richblogger September 21, 2006 at 4:01 am

Another great article is this one from Mrs. Scobleizer:

22 Easton Ellsworth September 21, 2006 at 9:53 am

Great list, Brian. If someone wanted to get a group of reviewers together, they could potentially create a collated list of traffic and link building tips … hmm …

Wow, thanks for rounding all these up in one bookmarkable post ;). Our how-to is up as well if you’d like to check it out!!

34 Mary September 21, 2006 at 2:54 pm

Put this in a book, sell it, and we’ll all buy it and read it. I’ve been using some of your tips and I find them productive and useful. Thank you so much.

I’m going to each and every site you’ve recommended and I’m going to read all of them.

But where is the time. I’m up to midnight, every night, and I feel overwhelmed at times. It’s worth it. I’d rather blog with flair and fun, than blog like a boring hack.

35 Mary September 21, 2006 at 3:05 pm

Thank you for this huge list of how to attract web links and increase internet traffic. I am grateful for all of the writing tips: I would rather write a funny, useful and entertaining blog than a boring one.

Here’s my submission to Darren’s ‘howto’ blogging project:

36 Matt September 21, 2006 at 4:46 pm

I read your site almost everyday! Great list of How to’s. Thanks for participating in the Group Writing Project. My How To is up also.

37 Doug Karr September 21, 2006 at 7:36 pm

I see a lot of tips but no analytics there… you can’t improve what you can’t measure, here’s a guide I wrote as a guest blogger:

Great compilation of list, thanks.

39 Terinea September 22, 2006 at 4:21 am

Alot of good resources to get started with. It’s about using the stuff that works best for your website/business.

40 Antonio Luis Climent Albaladejo September 22, 2006 at 1:15 pm

I put a simple metasearch engine in htt://www.climent.eu/BUSCADOR/buscadores.htm (I think I will be able to improve it). That could be something like linkbaiting, but the problem now is how to get people in that web page.

41 Bobby Chindaphone September 22, 2006 at 2:40 pm

This has got to be the best compilation of search engine marketing strategies! Thanks a bunch!

42 Graham English September 23, 2006 at 9:42 am

… very useful links too. My how to is up.

43 Chad Horenfeldt September 24, 2006 at 10:07 pm

Great post - I plan to look at 2-3 sites per day and pick up new tips along the way. Is there one tip out of all of these that you would say is the most important/rewarding?

44 Phil Gerbyshak September 24, 2006 at 10:32 pm

Great list! Thanks for putting it together. AMAZINGLY helpful!

45 tonymontana September 25, 2006 at 8:31 am

Very useful links! Some of them I knew. But I think the content is what that matters.

46 digilee September 25, 2006 at 5:13 pm

48 Brian September 26, 2006 at 5:20 pm

>>Very useful links! Some of them I knew. But I think the content is what that matters.

Uh, every single one of those resources says that the content is what matters. That’s what “creating compelling content” means. :)

49 Håkan Gustavsson September 30, 2006 at 1:46 pm

Very useful for me! Great links, great tips.

50 Keith October 1, 2006 at 4:02 am

I totally agree with the ideas you have mentioned. But I got another suggestion for bloggers to find blogs that are of similar topics and ask for link exchange. They could go to blog directories (e.g. http://blogannounce.info) and then go to the category their blog belongs to and then visit other blogs. Post comments and then contact the blog owner. I like this method because similar blogs tend to attract the same targeted groups and thus are more likely to lead referrals. And by the way, bloggers could submit their blogs to directories and get more traffic.

51 D Avicenna October 1, 2006 at 1:56 pm

Another great list! Thanks Brian.

52 Dan October 1, 2006 at 3:46 pm

Another site that will help build more one way links to your website is http://www.contentpop.com

Just submit your most interesting content, if it’s good, it will get traffic.

i hve no website but am trying to find out about making money –getting paid for directing hits to other websites–i am totally in the dark about this–i think it is called web linking–i would have to learn how to make a website and all the rest–any advice on going about all this–from scratch–perhaps a good book–would be appreciated–as i said i am total neopphyte. hope to do this from outside united states

91 Thomaz July 25, 2007 at 4:55 am

92 Learn Spanish July 28, 2007 at 4:28 pm

Very thorough list. I like these and have been seeing them around more and more.

Once thing I will be curious to see more of in the future, is people giving more details in these lists than just the link and title of post.

I like this idea how to attract links to website. Keep in touch on great stuff.

103 egorych September 9, 2007 at 1:49 pm

All SEO now is building links… Links matter more than content itself - content is hard to recognize as an original text without good incoming links. And Google can do nothing with this.

104 Bill September 11, 2007 at 12:21 am

Its wonderful, Sweet!

105 Mike September 18, 2007 at 10:27 am

Great article, I was reading and I can say that a lot of web marketing information are available through those links, specifically the SEOpedia one. This article describes very well the way to use titles and meta description tags, a good way to improve the visibility of a website in search engines.

I have been using Google adwords and Yahoo search marketing to advertise my site http://www.collegecreditbuilder.com and have found that the keyword traffic is very expensive, but results in actual click-throughs, whereas the content match feature can burn through you daily budget with many clicks, but no actual click-throughs. I know there are click-fraud lawsuits pending, but it seems like something is still not right.

I know full-well how hard getting links to a site is and, in the end, you have to sit down and spend a fair amount of time ‘just doing it’.

It’s worked for me and I’ve doubled my site’s traffic in the past month. Here are a few articles and resources I referenced:

I haven’t read everything on this page, so maybe this has been mentioned. But a free program that came out late in 2007 or early 2008 is a GREAT high ranking blog finder for most any niche.

Extremely easy to use and huge time saver in terms of searching for quality blogs. Just look up Comment Kahuna in Google and download!

Thanks for the resources. These all are of great help.

Making links are like making a spider web to trap visitors. but you pose a risk of getting trapped yourself too. The most important key to link popularity is developing good content. if you have good content your link will no doubt will be popular.
