This technique is used by some top bloggers with good results… actually the more traffic you have the more it will work.
Basically this works by creating a new blog post and linking to other blogs on this post. So you link to them FIRST and then go to their blog and tell them you linked to them. Ask them to check it out and link back to you. Tell them too that this technique is viral and they can get lots of backlinks if they link back.
Do link only to related blogs. This technique is sometimes also known as a Blog Virus For Bloggers. It goes more viral than that though. You also add your blog in the list. Then in blog post tell people to copy the links and create a new blog post and put all links there.
Then they do the same as you did, commenting on the blogs and telling people they have linked to them. So if you can pretty well see, you are getting links from bloggers that you’ve placed their link on your website. Plus you get links from your visitors who sort of participate and put the links on their website… and do like you did.
It gets viral the more your visitors participate and copy all your links and put them on their blog. You can be creative a bit, maybe offer some bonus for those who participate… or anything that will get them to take action.
Remember, after 1-2 months than go back and check which bloggers linked back and which did not. You can safely remove bloggers who did not link back to you. Those are not interested. Most often those bloggers who link back to you will also comment on the post to let you know.
If you want to make it easy for your visitors to participate then make it easy for them to copy the links. Usually they have to do it manually, but you can tell your webmaster to simple create some box with the required html. They just copy and paste the html code in the blog and they’re done.
For your visitors also tell them they have to create a blog post the same way you did, so they too go viral, they too will get visitors putting the links on their blogs. Plus they too have to tell the bloggers they linked back. Exactly same thing you did.
So there’s a way to get free backlinks for your blog, which can be fun too. I suggest you leave it there for 1-2 months, then just remove the blogs who did not link back.
