How Lists Will Help In Your Link Building Efforts
Besides link building is one of the more time consuming internet marketing strategies still one of the unavoidable tasks you have as an online marketer. To increase the rating and or traffic of your blog or site you have to work on building links.
Writing a list is one of the key ways to building links. The online visitor loves lists. They are easy to read, often very informative and are great resources to Social bookmarking by using sites such as Digg and StumbleUpon to add popularity.
Some serious lists even manage to acquire authority status. It’s worth the time you spend compiling a list in your niche. Post your list as an article first to benefit from the links and then compile it into an eBook for easy download to encourage subscribers. A good list will generate huge number of links.
Here are some ideas on what kind of list to build.
Create a top 50 or top 101 list of useful tips on something. This can be on saving money, writing articles, losing weight, collecting stamps or setting goals are just a few examples. It can be on any topic that will fit in with your blog or site. It can also be tips on an area that you are particularly interested in and have good knowledge of.
You can compile a shorter list such as 10 easy tips to bath your dog without destroying the house or 11 ways to boil an egg. How about 7 ways to treat hayfever or 12 simple steps towards financial freedom?
A list can be about unusual topics. Include some secrecy to pique the reader’s interest. For instance 8 myths about fitness regimes, or 10 secret diet tricks nobody tells you about. 9 hidden costs to internet marketing or 5 tricks nobody ever mentions when rock climbing.
Create a substantial resources list. These are always of interest to readers. This list can be about top Universities with the best business schools or the best free software available for image manipulation. It could be a resource list on best books on your niche so as to relate it back to your field of interest.
Create a list of experts in your particular niche. You might be an enthusiastic golfer and your blog or site is about an area of golfing such as famous golf courses you have played, or the most unusual golf courses. A list of top golfers would fit in well with this.
You might even get some of these golfers to link back to you. If you are into tennis consider a list of the top tennis players of all ages. Roger Federer is very active in social media, he might just link back to you.
Take the list of famous people one step further and invite the people on your list to be interviewed on a podcast or video. You could send through a few questions and see whether they will respond.
The above are just some ideas for list building. Lists are a very effective way of building links back to a blog or site and are relatively easy to create.

Hi Steven,
Welcome to my blog.
That´s how it works. You can also create pillar posts such as “How To” articles like the one you wrote on your site.
Hello Luis,
Great article and very useful information.
It’s a proven fact that people love lists. I think the “how-to” lists are the most effective. People are always searching for solutions to problems and providing them with answers will not only get you more traffic but you’ll keep those readers coming back to your site/blog.

Hi Robert,
“How-to” lists or article I think they are one of the best due to the fact that in the web everubody are looking for information about one topic or another and this kind gives them what most people want and can be read fast. Since time is another factor the readers lack, everything its lighting speed on the net.
Particular business niche links are quality links, it’s effective to your site.
