The way we use the internet is changing drastically. We are very much in amongst the social networking boom and for businesses it would be stupid not to take advantage of it. One of the most effective ways to do this is through link baiting.

Link baiting is a relatively new phenomenon in the Search Engine Optimisation industry and is a way in which to generate natural links to your site. This is accomplished by creating something that will naturally attract back-links for your site by getting people to discuss it online. People will discuss it on forums, blog about it and post it on social bookmarking sites such as del.icio.us.
