Linkbait…

April 27, 2007

http://www.jimkukral.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/calacanis-aols-next-ceo.jpgWant someone to link to your blog?  There are several tried and true strategies you can employ (I am much too lazy to do any of them with regularity).  Need a nononsense guide to linkbaiting?  Check out Jason Calacanis’ ‘how-to’ post on linkbaiting titled, "New Calacanis link-baiting ruls."  The new rules are lettered A-I. 

Rule F resonates with my ego: post a picture of me when I wasn’t fat. I’m not gonna link to some post where I look fat… come on. Use an old photo of me from like 2000 and you’re getting the link for sure!

I could add, "also, when I wasn’t bald!"
