A few notes on link love:
Bloglossary has this to say on link love.
And here’s an example of link love I’ve come across before which I quite like: Z lists.
Anyway - how to get links, a random list:
- post comments on relevant blogs
- participate in blog carnivals
- start a blog carnival
- explore and exploit the social bookmarking scene - using onlywire is a great way
- run memes, like this one on art that makes a difference
- pick up a meme that’s going round right now, even if you haven’t been tagged to participate in the meme
- simply ask blogs and web sites to link to you
- make online friends who will link to you
- participate in blogging contests, like this one at Blog about your Blog, where you can learn more blogging tips
- more information here and here
The most non-social bookmarking link love I’ve gotten so far is from healing.about.com. Not only do I get quite a few links from them but they usually are readers who don’t just read one page. Other than that, 10 paradoxes of creative people was picked up by reddit once and i still have reverberations from that.
