How To Seduce Other Bloggers To Link To Your Blog

Link building, a must-do for bloggers, needs time and resources. In most cases, link building is a pro-active measure where bloggers do the initiative to accumulate more inbound links for their blogs. They leave comments on dofollow blogs, bookmark their own post using dofollow bookmarking sites and dofollow social media, submit blog to free directories or submit articles to article directories.

Undoubtedly, these methods are proven to achieve results but demand a considerable amount of time and energy. Why can’t we just seduce other bloggers to link to our blogs? This could be a much easier approach to link building with much time and resources saved. Here are some seduction tips that could help drive other bloggers to link to your blog.

9 Tips To Seduce Other Bloggers

1. Dress-up Your Blog - Use Appropriate Theme

Women always wear seductive clothes when they’re up to seducing a guy. This almost always work… so as with a blog.

Since your theme is the first thing noticed by your visitors, it is also your primary tool to hook them into digging further into your blog. Using a professional or an appropriate Wordpress theme to match your niche should do the trick.

2. For The Nth Time… Content Is King

Your fantastic Wordpress theme is not going to do all the job for you. You should do more by publishing quality contents. Afterall, it’s your content that makes other bloggers link to your blog. Without any “link-worthy” posts, you cannot expect to get quality inbound links.

3. Be Bold With Your Topics

Don’t be ordinary… be BOLD with your topics. If your topics are nothing but usual and ordinary, you can’t possibly seduce other bloggers into linking to your blog. Choose to be different. Try to be bold with the topics you blog about in your blog. The truth is, bold topics are more catchy and more link worthy. Try it and see for yourself.

4. Be The First

You can build tons of inbound links in a short span of time by being the first to write about breaking news. Or at least be one of the firsts. This explains why most news blogs accumulate the most number of inbound links.

5. Run A Blog Contest

Nothing could be an easier link building method than running a blog contest. The only challenge is to come up with great prizes, seductive enough to lure other bloggers into participating. In your contest mechanics, you can require participants to link to your blog. If your prizes are fantastic and your contest mechanics are not too difficult (i.e. blog review and link to your blog), then there’s no reason your link building strategy won’t work.

6. Network With Like Minded Bloggers

Networking with bloggers on the same niche as yours is more likely to result in more inbound links than killing yourself networking with bloggers whose blogs are unrelated to yours. You can’t expect a blogger on body building to link to your blog when your blog is all about making money online.

7. Have A Niche And Dominate It

Bloggers are more inclined to link to bloggers who are authorities in their respective niches. Unfortunately, if you don’t have a niche, becoming an authority is almost impossible. If you want to get inbound links easily, then you should choose a niche and establish yourself as an authority on it. Soon, you’ll have other bloggers linking to your blog to refer their readers on your expert advices.

8. Show Some Proofs

If you claim to have earned a handsome income last month, it’s always a good strategy to show some proofs. People love to see proofs and when they see them, they start talking about it. And when they talk about it, they usually link to your posts. That’s how you get more inbound links.

9. Make A List Of Useful Resources

List are always appealing to everyone, especially if the list contains some really useful resources. I’ve made several list of free resources and shared them to my readers, these got me the most number of inbound links. You shoult try it too.

What other tips can you add to the list? Don’t forget to share them in the comment.
