But we all know that its not that easy to have one. The only key is to be determined and never lose hope. LOL... Link baiting is good to go as long as its a quality site and relevant.

A woman (Margo Foster) who trains at my karate studio hit the news one night... I blogged about it and it tripled my daily viewers for over a week.

If you have to market your link bait, it's not worth the effort. You need to create something that is really popular and which attracts links virally. I've made two runs at creating "link bait". In both cases, I did a lot more than some clever writing: Lesser effort: The Reading Skills Pyramid Major effort: SpellingCity.com The problem with creating link bait is that it needs to be quality and useful.

I never managed to create a good link bait until now but I am not giving up-yet :) I wish it was that easy to create a good link bait.

OK so it may not in turn generate a great deal of traffic but the benefit of having the link will improve your page rank and so on... Why does it need to be expensive, just do a short video on YouTube or Camtasia and people will link to it (if its good, funny or sexy). Check out the James D.Brausch Freedom Business System (www.freedombusinesssystem.com) this will help you decide.

It is expensive to create really good link bait on a regular basis, it brings short term traffic and poor quality - conversions traffic-if any at all if the link bait is successful. And link baiting for links will mean links from all kind of sites, links that have a short life very likely and mainly using anchor texts I have no control over. I can say I am not a huge fan of link bait and I am yet to be persuaded is worthing the money.Of course this is just my opinion :) I believe that link bait is not for everyone.
