Continually adding original, relevant, keyword-rich and thought-provoking linkbaiting content to your site attracts search engine rankings, largely by providing valuable content to your industry community and encouraging an on-line dialogue.  Strong linkbaiting often features targeted research, compelling arguments and opinions, creative and informative penmanship, and insightful critical analysis - all aspects of creativing writing and political science studies!

We have already talked abit about linkbaiting. We discussed how developing insightful and thought-provoking linkbaiting content for your site is a great way to attract engine rankings. We also mentioned how great linkbaiting not only provides valuable content to your industry community, but also encourages an on-line dialogue with members of your market audience, be they local, national or international. An informative conversation open to other points of view invariably encourages others to put their own two cents in.

Strong linkbaiting often features targeted research, thought-provoking arguments and ideas, creative and informative penmanship, and insightful critical analysis. Sound familiar? If you believed your mother when she told you during your college or university days that it was a complete waste of time to take those Creative Writing and Political Science courses, it’s time to reconsider her opinions.

The truth is that the type of research and writing skills you developed in pursuing that Arts or Social Science degree will come in very handy if you are creating site content for linkbaiting. Okay, so you think that surely you have long forgotten many of the details from the credit courses in English, Philosophy and Political Science that you took at FunRide College or Slackers University. Chances are, however, that many of those penmanship skills are still with you – researching, collecting and classifying information, developing ideas, considering the pros and cons of a particular issue, summarizing, offering concise critical analysis, even engendering an insightful dialogue with others. All these impressive and valuable abilities take considerable effort and time (and tuition fees!) to develop and should not be downplayed. And all these skills are really essential to strong linkbaiting. Next time your family or friends dish your arts or social science background, or that Introduction to World Politics course you took back in year one of your studies, be sure to remind them how relevant those courses have become, now that you are a professional linkbaiter! And make sure that your former college and/or university advisor/counselor arranges to have “Linkbaiting” added to the Career Section of the school’s Social Science brochure.
