Creating Linkbait Pages For SEO

Posted in Off Page Search Engine Optimisation by Click Consult on 11th of November, 2008

Linkbait is a terms that is used to refer to pages created with the specific intention of generating links. These pages must be entirely unique and of a very high quality in order to persuade other website owners that they should offer a link and while extremely high quality textual content can be used in this way it is far more common for dynamic pages and web based applications to be used as linkbait pages. This is because they are extremely unique.

Good SEO requires the consistent building of SEO links. Requesting links and using other forms of link building can prove tedious and drawn out whereas the provision of linkbait pages can actually mean that links are offered without you having to request them or take any other action. The onus really is on the creation of very high quality and extremely unique pages in order to persuade others to provide links. However, if you can do this, the outcome can be almost viral in its effectiveness because with each new links comes potential new traffic and potential new link sources.

Linkbait is not only ethical but openly encouraged by search engines because it requires the provision of extremely desirable web pages. Organic links are an excellent way to continue building SEO links long after you have put in the initial effort and you may find that a single page of linkbait can continue to generate links long into the future; excellent for an ongoing SEO project.
