Seth Godin-链接诱饵
链接诱饵
from Seth’s Blog by (作者授权翻译. 未经作者和译者许可 请勿转载.)
行内人士都知道这是什么。但是对外人来说这还是个新东西。
做法如下:
在你的网站上放个图片,图片要新奇古怪但是还认得出来。
或者放点还真有点用的信息。
然后,在这个图片里放一堆链接,连到各种网站去。
要是你高兴,可以把这件事做得坦率或忏悔或挑衅。
要不就做个“十大”或“41大”列表
然后告诉别人你在做这个链接列表
让别人链接回来,这会让他们觉得有趣新颖或者让他们觉得很聪明或是很有分享心。
然后这个东西就在Digg之类的社会性网站获得很高的评级。
你的网站得到了铺天盖地的访问,比方说,25万次新浏览。
当然,其中只有为数不多的人会真的到处点击看看,与你互动。即便如此,这个干净利落的方法也值得一试,况且还可能改进你在搜索排名中的位置。
但是你这样作的最大的理由,是因为你能够这么做。
网络上的此类事情一直都有,而且很可能会一直发生。这是个无伤大雅的爱好,但是我清楚的知道自己不想靠这种做法来开展一门生意。
以下是今天的 例子.

Linkbait
from Seth’s Blog by
Insiders know what it is, but it’s a new term to many.
Here’s what you do:
Put a picture on your website. Something novel but still recognizable.
Or something really useful.
Then, put lots of links to various websites within the image.
Or, if you want, make it something remarkably honest or confessional or provocative.
Or make it a top 10 or top 41 list.
Then, tell the people you’re linking to about it.
They link back to you because it’s funny or new or makes them seem smart or just feels sharable.
It gets ranked up high on Digg and the other social networking sites.
You get a TON of visits. Like 250,000 new people.
Sure, only a few will actually click around and interact with you, but still, it’s neat to have it happen and it might very well have ancillary benefits in your search results.
But mostly, do it because you can.
The web has been doing this forever, and it’s likely we still will. It’s a fine hobby, but I sure wouldn’t want to build a business around it.
Here’s today’s example.
