What many online marketers
are calling linkbait or Link Bait, Eric Ward calls content. Call him old
fashioned, but if you try to create a buzz by creating pointless content,
the buzz you hear will be flies, because only flies like junk.
Eric uses a different approach,
based on nearly 15 years of successful link building.
A Solid Track Record
Eric Ward has been helping
clients with linking and link bait strategies since before the term existed.
He was involved with concepting and promoting several of the most
successful examples of content (aka link bait) ever, including Windows
Media Player, The Weather Channel's Weather on your Site, AMCTV's Monsterfest,
and Schering-Plough's Hepatitis C Infocenter. More recently Eric helped
publicize
the new Children's
Hospital Boston Virtual Stem Cell Laboratory.
It's About Content
Ward commented "the bottom
line for me is quality content=quality links. Will the content attract
links now and over time and will those links help you meet your marketing
objectives? Attracting a million links to a piece of ephemeral silly
content like the Diet Coke/Mentos video is fun, but ultimately meaningless
and inspires copycats. Attracting the right links that help you publicize
great new content is far more meaningful, so that's what I focus on".
Ward continued, "The truth
is most sites are developing the kind of link bait that will have very
little long term value. And a bad strategy can backfire, as we saw with
the fake Wal-Mart blog? I'm glad that blog (which I bet some marketing
consultant called link bait) wasn't my idea."
How Eric Ward Does Link
Bait
