Using a competition as linkbait?

30 March, 2008 (15:18) | Uncategorized

We’ve seen many ideas used to gain backlinks to a website. Travel website sunshine.co.uk are using a competition to gain backlinks, they are offering anyone who links to them in March the opportunity to win a Mac Book Air.

So in doing this the sneaky buggers have gained a backlink from us, both as an example of a good link bait, and as an excuse to enter the competition!

Hi,

We are in the process of compiling a comprehensive “Do Follow” List. We have placed your blog on our list. We were hoping that you might consider linking to us and perhaps even writing about our effort. The list can be found at http://tucsonseosolutions.com/dofollowlistoflists.

Thanks,
Boris
