It is probably common knowledge that website traffic building is the only way to start making money on the internet. If you don’t have traffic coming in to click on your links, how on earth are you going to make any sales? First of all, you must realize why Google traffic is the best, how to optimize your website for Google, then you must find other methods other than Google.

Why Google Traffic is the Best

Google traffic is the best way to gain traffic to your website. Not only will you receive targeted traffic depending on what keywords you decide to pursue, but you will also receive a daily amount of traffic for free! That’s right, by utilizing search engine optimization [SEO] , you will receive a daily amount of traffic for free. It may take a while but in due time, you will eventually gain the results you want.

Google as a search engine is better than all the other search engines as well simply because Google directs approximately 80% of the searches on the internet. That means there have been millions of people that have performed billions of searches! It is important that you get your share of the internet as well.

How to Optimize Your Website for Google

It is important that you find keywords that are highly searched but have low competition among other websites. When you find these keywords and put them on your webpage, Google will see you as an authoritative source, and therefore rank you high when a person types in that keyword in the Google search box. It is highly important that you find as many long-tail keywords as possible, so you can get a great amount of organic visitors on a daily basis.

Finding other methods besides Google

It is important to find other methods besides Google as well, because as the old saying goes, it is never good to put all your eggs in one basket. Therefore do some research on other ways you can get targeted traffic to your website. Some of these ways include social networking sites such as myspace, facebook, friendster, and others. Make sure you do not spam, because spam is illegal, however, if you have valuable information that you want to expose to the public then by all means, make your presence known.

One of the traditional methods for getting links to your site is to engage in a link exchange. Many webmasters still spend hour after hour promoting their website by trying to exchange links with other webmasters. So what is a link exchange? And does this technique really work to send more visitors to your website?

First of all, a link exchange can be informal or formal. An informal link exchange is the process that most webmasters use of just sending out emails to as many webmasters as they can find. Hopefully, a few of those webmasters will reply and agree to exchange links. This means each webmaster puts a link to the other webmasters website on his or her own site.

A formal link exchange generally refers to an internet based system that is set up to facilitate these sorts of link exchanges. There are some well known link exchange systems on the web that are easily found via a web search. These systems make it a bit easier to swap links but this process still requires quite a bit of time and effort to get any links.

Link exchanges like this used to work reasonably well in driving traffic to websites. However, the search engines have gotten more sophisticated with their algorithms and this sort of link building exercise does not work anywhere near as well as it once did.

There are several problems with this sort of link building approach. First, all the links are reciprocal links, which means that each site has a link to the other site. Search engines greatly prefer links that are one way rather than reciprocal. The problem with getting one way links however is that you cannot just contact other webmasters and ask for a one way link back to your own site. They will ask “what’s in it for me”?

A second problem is that more and more webmasters now realize that this approach doesn’t work very well anymore so most of the time webmasters will simply ignore requests for a link exchange. Even in the “old days” it was an incredibly onerous and time consuming task to send out email after email to other webmasters. But now the response rate is so low that it hardly makes the effort worthwhile.

These days you really need to get one way links to make any progress in promoting your website. These links should also be from relevant websites, since search engines now reward websites for getting links from other related websites rather than random websites. So how do you get these links?

One way is to purchase text links. However, the search engines frown on the process of purchasing text links on specific sites, because in the past this approach was used too often between sites that were completely unrelated. It can still work to increase your page rank on a limited basis, but this should not be used as your main linking strategy.

Another way is to comment in forums or on blogs. This approach can work ok, but forum and blog comment pages generally do not have much link value so you must do a great deal of posting. Furthermore, blogs are often set up with the “no follow” attribute which means that links you get there will have no SEO value.

A third way to get links is to write articles. This is still a good way to get links and to market your website, but it takes a reasonable amount of work. You must write lots of articles to be successful at this approach.

A new and better way to get one way related links is to use an automated system that finds these for you. If you can find and use a system that does this, then you can save a great deal of time and money over the other approaches.

Internet Presence - Case Study: Recipe for Success

Learn how - anyone - can leverage this Case Study to build a visible Internet presence.

I’m constantly amazed at the number of business professionals unaware of how straight forward it is to build a visible Internet presence. I recognize there may be business professionals who also don’t care about this — whatever there reasons. That’s fine.

I’m writing this for business professionals who care about how they can leverage some very simple and non-technical concepts in an incremental attempt to impact either themselves or their businesses professionally.

In July, I spoke at the San Francisco Chapter meeting of the Marketing Executives Networking Group about leveraging on-line networking platforms and article publishing sites to build a visible Internet presence.

Many of the Silicon Valley Marketing Executives in attendance were amazed to learn how powerful on-line networking sites (e.g., Ecademy, et al.) and article publishing sites (e.g., EzineArticles, et al.) are to not only build a visible - personal - Internet presence, but they were also amazed to learn how you can leverage the exact same principles to drive a visible - corporate - Internet presence.

I used an on-line networking platform member as an example of how he’s driven his website not just the 1st page of Google, but the 1st hit in Google out of over 100 million hits, against the keyword phrase: Personal Success Program.

I decided I needed to build my own Case Study after this presentation. In short, here is what I did:

I drove a website against a keyword phrase to the 1st page of Google in less than 30 days leveraging the power of an on-line networking platform and article publishing site.

And if I can do this (i.e., someone who doesn’t know anything about Search Engine Optimization), anyone can do this.

What’s the recipe?

Let me first start with the chronology.

Less than 60 days after putting effort into raising the ranking of my “Case Study” website (against the keyword phrase: Internet Presence) my”Case Study” website consistently ranks in the middle of the first page of hits in Google out of approximately 170 million hits. Incidentally, my actual “Case Study” website also consistently ranks in the middle of the first page of hits in Google out of approximately 347 million hits (against the keyword phrase: Search Advantage).

The specific details of how I leveraged these concepts to drive my “Case Study” website to the first page of Google are visible to anyone on the Search Advantage website.

Applying these - exact - same principles, substituting your name for the keyword phrase, will drive - any content associated with your name - higher in Google as well.

This capability is priceless. For anyone can have this kind of control over proactively creating not only a visible personal, but also a corporate Internet presence, is extremely powerful.

What is Google’s PageRank?

If you have ever done any reading about search engine optimization or were just curious how you can get your site to the top of the Google search engine results, understanding PageRank is vital. I’m going to introduce you to the basics of PageRank and also provide a brief discussion on how much you should really worry about PageRank if you are running a website or Internet business.

Google’s founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, invented PageRank and it forms the basis for how Google works. Google didn’t become the best search engine in the world by chance, it became the best search engine because it provided the best results. PageRank is in fact the technology that gave Google its competitor-killing edge, a way to greatly improve the accuracy and validity of a search response to a user query.

In essence PageRank provides a means to determine the value of a website for any given search term or keyword phrase. This value is determined by how websites link together with the more popular (and theoretically better) sites receiving more links. It’s these incoming links that help the site have a high PageRank value and thus display higher up in search results.

Let’s read how Google explains their PageRank system:

PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page’s value. Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But, Google looks at more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves “important” weigh more heavily and help to make other pages “important.”

Important, high-quality sites receive a higher PageRank, which Google remembers each time it conducts a search. Of course, important pages mean nothing to you if they don’t match your query. So, Google combines PageRank with sophisticated text-matching techniques to find pages that are both important and relevant to your search. Google goes far beyond the number of times a term appears on a page and examines all aspects of the page’s content (and the content of the pages linking to it) to determine if it’s a good match for your query.

The key rule to understand is that it is a combination of variables that determine how well your site performs in Google. These are the most important variables to worry about:

• Incoming links to your site.
• The relevancy (to your site’s theme) of the pages linking to your site and the PageRank of these pages.
• The keywords that other sites use to link to your site.
• The keywords on your website in particular in places like page titles and headlines.

Some of those factors you can control, others you can manipulate but not directly control. The important thing to understand regarding PageRank is that all those variables will determine how high your site shows up in search engine results. PageRank is the name for the technology that ranks sites and includes all those variables and many more.

PageRank Numbers — The Little Green Bar

If you install the Google Toolbar into your browser you can choose to switch on the PageRank display (it’s in the options). This will make a little green bar appear above web pages you visit. The green bar represents the PageRank of the page you are viewing in your browser. The ranking starts at 0 (no ranking) up to 10, the highest ranking and can be blanked out completely if the page has been banned from Google. If you don’t want to use the toolbar you can try this free PageRank lookup tool to find the ranking for any web address.

Google created quite a storm when it launched its green PageRank bar. Webmasters became obsessed with methods to increase their PageRank and high PageRank sites started selling text links for hundreds of dollars. A link from a high PageRank page, from a PageRank 7, 8, 9 or 10, has been known to make lower PageRank pages increase a full number, even two if the incoming link is from a PageRank 10, and there is no doubt it is good for search engine rankings.

The problem with PageRank being displayed in a little green bar is that it is very hard to really gauge how valuable a ranking is. The Google PageRank technology is complex containing many variables, some of which I mentioned above, and to interpret a number from 0-10, especially when only Google really knows how it works, is difficult. Worse still, the visible representation, the green bar that the public can see, only changes on a quarterly basis, while the real PageRank of a page changes on a daily basis. Most of the time you are looking at a very outdated ranking value.

PageRank paranoia is an issue that every webmaster may fall victim to. There are rumours that Google will be changing the PageRank system because they are not happy with how it is being manipulated and interpreted. As a rule of thumb, watch the green bar with interest but don’t take it too seriously or spend too much time trying to force it to increase (staring and yelling at it will do you no good, trust me on that one).

The Randomness Of PageRank

Search engine optimization experts actively track PageRank and investigate things like page backlinks to try and work out what the top search engine ranked sites are doing right so they can replicate and then surpass them in the rankings. This is a very good strategy for any person running a web business looking to improve their search ranking. There is no need to reinvent the wheel - copy what works and do it slightly better than the competition.

This is all good in theory, but unfortunately there is a good amount of randomness in PageRank and search engine results. Google of course would argue that it’s not randomness and their PageRank system is merely using algorithms that we don’t understand, and no doubt that is true, but for the human webmaster trying to get traffic, PageRank and Google can be baffling sometimes.

There are instances of high PageRanked sites having little to no backlinks. Given that incoming links are one of the most important variables used in PageRank calculations you have to scratch your head and wonder how a site with no links could have a big green bar. Google’s own backlink lookup tool is another phenomenon that search engine experts often choose to ignore rather than try and evaluate.

Thankfully the randomness of PageRank can result in positive outcomes as well, with your sites jumping high into search results in places where you wouldn’t expect it. The only consistency is randomness but there is logic that can be followed and smart search engine optimization practices that when implemented well will work. Just don’t expect it to work precisely how or when you want it to.

What You Should Know And Do About PageRank

This advice I offer from experience as an avid PageRank chaser and search engine optimizer. The key to gaining PageRank is to ignore it and focus on the variables that control it.

Having people link to your site has always been a good thing and PageRank was in fact a result of this. Don’t get confused with the order of things, first came the Internet and links and then came PageRank. Focus on amassing quality incoming links from quality sites relevant to your site. This practice will naturally improve your PageRank and also increase the amount of visitors coming to your site. Don’t get bogged down chasing links from only high PageRank sites or waste energy adding links from just any site willing to link to you. Do things naturally and your site will grow naturally.

Learn about the importance of keywords. Keywords play a crucial role in bringing the right type of traffic to your site but you should never spend half an hour in front of a computer trying to come up with the perfect title for your article. Name your content logically and think about what search words your audience would use to find your article and you can very quickly and easily develop good keywords without spending hours and hours tweaking every little phrase and heading. See what your competitors do in regards to keywords if you are completely lost.

If you build a good website with good content, always keep in mind your important keywords and proactively work every day to earn and create new backlinks to your site you will improve your PageRank. The best sites with the highest PageRank never worry about PageRank, they simply keep churning out content that people love to link to. This is a strategy that every webmaster and Internet entrepreneur should emulate for success online.

The SEO hints and tips you find here will not only show you how to optimize a web page properly, but also get you high Google listings and masses of free traffic. That is worth every penny you might spend on the right information.

You no doubt understand all the basic stuff, but in case you are new to this, let’s first have look at these basic SEO hints and tips, since many seem to omit them from their web pages. The most important are the HTML tags that are used by search engines to determine the relevance of your page to the search term used by the search engine’s customer.

Note the term ‘web page’, because many people don’t realize that Google, along with most other search engines, doesn’t list websites, but individual web pages. You have to understand how search engines calculate your listings if you are to understand how to optimize a web page.

I am going to refer to Google, not only because it is the biggest of the search engines, but also to save the bother of referring to search engines all the time. I will refer to Google, but what applies to them also applies to the rest. Here are the main SEO basics:

a) The TITLE tag. This appears in the HEAD portion of your html, and is not actually seen by your visitors but is the most important tag on your web page because the spiders place very high weight to it. Use your main keywords here, and also any other text that will inform Google of the theme of your web page.

b) Heading (H) tags. Your page title should be placed within H1 tags, and should contain the same major keyword as you used in the TITLE tag. Any subheadings should be contained within H2 tags. I don’t use any of the lower tags, from H3 down, except perhaps H3 very occasionally. Google will regard any text with H tags as being important, with most weight given to the lower numbers. However, if you place everything in H1 tags, that will dilute its importance on your page and defeat the object.

c) Text enhancements: Use bold, italic and underline enhancements sparingly, and where you one again want to stress the importance of certain keywords.

d) Your keyword density should be concentrated in the first third of your web page. Don’t use too many: I get good results with under 1% overall keyword density, but using the main keyword in the first 100 characters, once in the last paragraph and once more each 300 words but concentrated in the first third of the page. Thus, an 800 word page will have the keyword three times in the first 250 words and once in the last paragraph.

e) Meta tags: the only meta tag worth using is the description tag, which is used by most search engines in the description of your web page in their listings. Google mainly uses it exactly as you write it. The keyword tag can also be used, but few search engines are thought to use it: Google does not. Any other meta tags are a waste of your space. Anybody that claims differently is wanting to sell you something.

These are the basic hints on SEO, now here are some of the more advanced SEO hints and tips that will teach you not only how to optimize a web page, but to understand the way that search engines work. These are less obvious, and generally not used by beginners to search engine marketing.

f) Use text links to other pages on your website. Search engine spiders love text, and fancy graphics or java links might look great, but don’t get you kudos from the spiders. Stick to text if you want a good listing: there’s no point in fancy graphical links if you have no visitors to use them.

g) Try to use as much text as possible, and as little code as possible. Your code to text ratio should be minimized as far as possible because . . . yes, you’ve got it! Spiders love text!

h) Another useful SEO tip is to maximise your off page linking strategy. It is possible to get a #1 spot on Google with no content: just loads of links coming into your web page from other websites. Not just any websites, but authority sites, so reciprocal links to and from web pages not directly related to your niche are a waste of time, and can even harm you. Link farms can positively damage you.

i) Use anchor text for your links where at all possible. Google shouldn’t have to work out what your web page is about: tell them. Hyperlink your keyword to your website, but don’t use the same form of keyword from every webpage linking to yours. Mix them about so as to keep the links fresh.

j) And lastly: keep adding pages to your website. A single website containing 80 pages will likly provide you with more visitors that two of 40 pages due to a higher overall Google listing from the former as compared to both of the 40 page sites. Refresh your content frequently by adding new pages, but don’t ignore your older pages: rdevise these now and again with new vocabulary. Google detests stagnation.

These are just a few SEO hints and tips that can teach you how to optimize a web page. There are many, many more. Some quite basic, others very much more advanced than the above. However, you can’t get everything free!

Why do buyers that perform a DIY Home Inspection end up purchasing the house more often, than a buyer that has a hired inspection? And why do sellers that do their own home inspection sell their homes in less time, and have a smoother closing process, than a seller than does not do a home inspection? Read On.

Home buyers that do their own DIY Home Inspection are less likely to develop a list of repairs and concerns as large as a hired Home Inspectors list of repairs and concerns. Why is that? A buyer doing their own Home Inspection, with a good inspection guide (instruction) and report will see defects that they know they are capable of correcting, or they have a friend or relative that can makes these repairs. Consequently, the defects are not listed on their inspection report.

Another reason: After signing an earnest money agreement, home buyers, often talk and plan on remodeling certain areas of their new home. They are not concerned at all with these areas, while inspecting. Defects found in these areas are rarely on their report. While a hired inspector will list everything he can find to limit his liability. And last but not least, the dialog between the hired Home Inspector and the buyer, while discussing issues found, can “kill deals”. The communications by the Home Inspector needs to be handled just right and delicately, or the buyer ends up with a bleak picture of the home, when in fact the home is a solid home.

A Buyer doing their own DIY Home Inspection gives them more free time in their new home and they will know the home better and have a better understanding of the working components. This builds a stronger tie between the buyer and the home.

A good DIY Home Inspection Report should have included, a “Pre-Inspection Agreement”. The Pre-Inspection Agreement should be written to eliminate any liability between you, (the Realtor), and your client (buyer or seller). Your client would simply read and sign the agreement and give you a copy for your records.

Most DIY Home Inspection Reports on the market do not have instructions to guide your client through their inspection or a Pre-inspection Agreement. They consist of a checklist only, without an instruction guide. These Inspection Reports are useless unless the user has a good back ground in construction and the working components of a home.

Today, many Realtors are recommending to their home sellers, to have a Home Inspection before, or at the time it is listed. And for good reasons, statistics will show homes that have had a Pre-Inspection before the listing, have sold faster, because the buyer has more confidence in the home, especially if the seller is willing to do an inspection on the home they are selling. The seller is being “up front” about the home.

For the Realtor, knowing what defects are present gives you and the seller time to discuss what should be fixed and what should not, (perhaps sell As Is). And, it allows the seller to do their own repairs or shop for the best price for the repairs. The seller’s inspection will provide an accurate and complete disclosure protection for the Realtor and the seller. It may also be used to help the seller rethink the selling price of the home.

A good selling point for sellers is to have your completed Inspection Report available for buyers when they walk through. Always leave the completed report in a conspicuous place. Reading this Report is valuable to the potential buyer and shows the seller is up front about the home and its condition. The report will show defects and if they have been corrected, it is suggested to give them that update in the report as well.

A Buyer or Seller does not have to be an expert to diagnose many problems found in a home and most repairs have do-it-yourself remedies.

Gary is knowledgeable with over forty years in general construction including twenty years in the Home Inspection business and authored the BAIR (Building Analysis Inspection Report) System. He has put forth his experience of over 7000 inspections in the BAIR System. It is designed to be thorough yet easy to follow. It includes a checklist for each section as well as a summary page at the end of the report for your evaluation.

For most people in America the dream was always about owning a home, having 2.3 kids, a good paying job, and the best looking car in the neighbourhood. All surrounded by a cute white picket fence. But recent economic changes are turning this dream into a nightmare for many.

Data from the United States Census Bureau, shows an increasing number of homeowners are spending more and more of their hard earned incomes on housing. Incomes that have failed to keep up with inflation and are being stretched more and more each day by basic needs.

All of this is creating a huge problem for home buyers, most of who are now priced out of housing market. Rising home prices, higher interest rates, and stagnant wages have all combined to create an unfriendly environment for prospective home buyers.

Almost everyone is in agreement that the housing “bubble” was on the verge of bursting with housing prices up a devastating 32 percent since the start of this decade, when the economy collapsed.

On the other hand, the corporations have done a very good job of making sure that wages did not keep up with the steadily rising economy. In fact the average income has actually dropped by 2.8 percent, while everything else has risen over the past 7 years, leaving the working class with less buying power than ever before.

The worst news has to be the fact that most people now have to spend more than 30%, and in some cases as much as 50% of their income on housing. This means that the average American has much less disposable income for daily living, to stimulate economic growth, proving that 30% or more of their income consumed just for housing is excessive and definitely not financially healthy.

What this means is that the American economy is in trouble. We are currently living in the results of this unbalanced economy. Most experts predict that until the average income is changed to reflect that actual cost of living and catches up to housing costs, the financial market will remain lifeless and in shambles. Real estate is a significant part of the economy and has always been one of the biggest drivers to overall financial health. That translates to mean that a weak real estate market will result in a weak economy, especially when compounded with weak buying power of the average consumer.

This situation appears to be the worst in California. This is because California has the most expensive real estate of any state in the nation, and almost 50 percent of working California homeowners loses more than 30% of their income to housing related expenses, causing weak economic growth throughout the rest of the state. This weak economic growth results in fewer people wanting to live there and even fewer opportunities for those who do.

The cold hard fact is that until the income of average American workers can be encouraged to rise as quickly as all the other expenses consumers face such as real estate, food, gas, and power. This trend will continue and shows no signs of turning around unless something drastic happens to increase consumer buying power. This means that the current financial turmoil could last much longer than anyone has predicted.

What is going on with the U.S. economy right now, and how does it affect people who are trying to get a mortgage and buy a home? This article will give you a better understanding of the economic problems in this country, and how they affect home buyers.

For one thing, it means you will need a better credit score to (A) qualify for a home loan and (B) get the best rate on that loan. Tougher regulations were put in place as a result of the housing crisis, and these regulations do what should have been done years ago — they discourage banks from lending to people with bad credit (among other things).

On top of that, we are seeing financial institutions fail because of all the bad loans they made in the past. So banks today are a lot less inclined to make what they feel is a risky loan.

Let’s assign some actual numbers to this explanation so it makes more sense:

I recently saw Jean Chatzky, the financial editor for the Today Show, describing how the housing crisis has affected borrowers, in terms of their credit scores. She explained something we have already talked about. Home buyers today need better / higher credit scores to qualify for mortgage loans. She then backed this up with numbers that were derived from polls of the lending industry.

* In May of 2006, a borrower needed a credit score of 620 or above to qualify for the best interest rates on a mortgage.

* Two years later, after the housing crisis and all of its fallout, borrowers would need a score of 760 or above to qualify for the best rates.

That’s a significant change, and it shows you how this issue affects buyers who need mortgage loans. The bottom line is that banks are not taking any risks with subprime loans or borrowers with bad credit these days. As a result of the housing crisis, the bar for mortgage qualification has been raised.

What Can You Do?

I frequently get emails from people who say something like this: “I have bad credit but I want to buy a home. How should I go about it?” In other words, these people are asking how to get a subprime loan. Evidently, they do not watch or read the news.

My response to such questions is always the same — don’t do it! Buying a home with bad credit is virtually impossible right now. And even if it were possible, it would be the worst financial move you could make in this economy.

People with bad credit should “hunker down” and focus on improving their credit scores before they do anything else. Wait until the housing market shows signs of recovery. Wait until you have the kind of credit score that will allow you to qualify for a loan, and to get a decent interest rate on that loan.

In today’s realm of online information-gathering and dissemination, many observers say that the best way of obtaining quality inbound links is through generating a lot of high-value content that people would like to link to.

You gather inbound links when other online publishers and Web masters link to your website, or one of your pages. The larger the number of links that you can get, the better it would be for your web site and the better you are likely to rank in the search engine rankings.

Inbound links may create wonders for your page, as not only will they get you targeted traffic from the Web sites linking to you, as even search engines attach higher importance to websites that are being linked to by other websites. This serves as sort of a vote of confidence for your content. The process of generating content for the sake of getting inbound links is generally referred to “link baiting”.

Link baiting Is A Relatively New Concept in Obtaining Inbound Links

As mentioned earlier, link baiting is the method of generating content for the purpose of getting inbound links. However, does this method mean that you generate content just to obtain inbound links?

Actually everything works in tandem and although link baiting is a relatively new term, the concept has been present for more than a decade, although it initially existed in a crooked form. In the same manner as link-exchange programs, it was the same thing but back then, where they used to exchange links indiscriminately. Unlike before, nobody was worried about the link value provided, just so long as a reciprocal link was gained, so people welcomed almost every sort of link.

As the initial system created havoc online, search engines eventually began to stop ignoring link exchange activities and considered only those links that were linked to high-value content. This created the need for unique link-worthy content. The quality of content not only adds value to your Web site and enhance your conversion rate, it also encourages the others to link to your web pages. This linking, which originated out of the value of your content, in effect will greatly improve your search engine rankings.

The Different Types Of Link baiting

Link baiting is basically considered as building links with a twist. Rather than go hunting out links, you in the process, are bringing the links to you through unique and popular site content. In simple terms, experts con sider link Baiting is just like fishing.

As you publish a new page on a topic and release it on the web, you are hopeful that others pick up on the content and see it as fresh and interesting, and link to it. The article is the bait, and the link is the catch. A creatively written and interesting Web page can capture huge links on its own with little to no effort from you. Here are the different link baiting types that writers and Web masters employ to generating good links.

- News Hook. A news hook is where you provide content that others don’t have, but will want to link to. A specific example of a news hook is a “scoop” where you are the first, or one of the first, to report on some information of general or industry news.

- Attack Hook. This type of hook works much like a contrary hook, however takes things to a newer level. In this hook, you not only present a contrary point of view, but you also turn it into a personal attack on the original source.

- Contrary hook. This is employed when you contradict or counter something someone else says. Usually, you will start with a link back to the original story, which would be their link bait, and then present your contrary viewpoints.

- Humor Hook. A humor hook involves using humor to attract links. The humor can be in the form of a story, or it can also be a piece of satire or a list of funny items.

- Resource Hook. This hook provides useful information for others to link to. It can be a list of resources, a compilation of links to articles. Your resource can be a how to or tutorial based on your industry.

Link bait refers to the unique and interesting content that other sites naturally want to link to. The kind of link bait can be something original, or it may be one that is original in idea, something that is contrary, one that is humorous, or something that is useful.
