Over at the YPN blog Rand (a guest poster) writes a useful post on Leveraging Linkbait. Nice to see some exploration of the topic on an official Yahoo blog. For more on linkbait you might also like to read my mini-series on the topic:
- Introduction to Linkbaiting
- Motivations for Linkbaiting – Why Links are Good for Your Blog

Rand also links to another few relevant articles:
- Linkbaiting or Link Baiting? – SEO Book
- Linkbaiting for Fun & Profit – Search Engine Journal
- The Art of Linkbaiting – Performancing
- Just What is Link Bait Anyway – High Rankings Forum
And a few more from Google
- SEO Advice: linkbait and linkbaiting – Matt Cutts
- What is Linkbaiting? – Modern Life is Rubbish
- Linkbaiting, How Hard is it? – ISEdb
That should keep you busy for the weekend :-)
Interested to hear your definition of it too!
