Link building and link baiting are two different things and serve two different purposes. While link building is a blog-growth strategy, as we have discussed earlier, that helps boost your blog’s search engine rankings and traffic in the long term, link baiting causes short-term traffic spikes. However, some of the people who arrive at your blog through your link bait might like what they read and turn into loyal readers. The biggest difference between them is that Link building works for long period of time, whereas Link baiting works on for short period of time to attract traffic on your blog or site. Link baiting is the process of writing a blog post about a hot topic for the primary purpose of driving short-term traffic and boosting incoming links.  For example , if you write a blog about business and see a hot topic about Britney Spears climbing the trending topic on Twitter, Google, or another site that tracks hot topics, you can write a post about Britney on your ...

Therefore, it’s important that you write great content and make it easy for people to share that content, thereby driving incoming links and traffic to your blog. Use plug-ins like the TweetMeme button and AddThis  WordPress plug-in to enable one-click sharing of your content on the social web. One of the factors search engines like Google use to rank keyword search results is the number of incoming links a web page has.

So pages with a lot of incoming links are likely to be ranked higher in keyword search results than pages with fewer incoming links. Quick Tip to find your blog links on Search Engines : Find out how many incoming links your blog has according to Google by typing link:www.yourbl...
