As the term suggests, link baiting is baiting a link - luring website visitors to click on the link... and doing everything to make their hands itch to click your link. So how do you do that?

Using Anchor Text, the most common ways to build a link bait is to start your titles with:

• Top 10 / Top 20....
• The World's Best....
• How to...
• What you don't know about...
• Where is/are/to...
• When is/are/to...
• Who is/are...
  
• Free... - things are better when free
• Downloads..

Other Tips with anchor text:

• Make it controversial
• It is something new - people never heard of
• It is something very new, current, and in top news
  

You can anchor your link to images too. If you want to use images, you can remember these tips:

• Use sexy images - because sex sells
• Funny pics - people always seek fun
• Click here - even images that merely says "click here" instructs the visitors brain to click it. Now, click here.
• Did you click it? ;))
  

Using Videos

• Video sites could be a venue where to put your links on. On any video you may upload, you can put - a little description and a link too. Simply using the work "click" as anchor of your link will make majority of visitors to click it when they see it. ;))
