This morning I got to work and made a comment on an SEO blog, telling the blogger that I wished they wrote more often. I read a lot of SEO blogs, every day, and happen to really like this one, but the writer, one Debra Mastaler, hadn’t written a post in close to a month. (Pot-Kettle-Black. I know.)
It’s now the end of the work day, in which I peruse the SEO blogosphere once more, and low and behold, Debra had written an entire post directed right at me. I’m slightly flabberghasted, to say the least. I don’t really comment too often on SEO blogs, partially to keep my name slightly below radar, partially because I don’t have much new value to add, and partially because I really just don’t care to most of the time. Yet this one little comment (the only comment I’ve left in the last…9 days? 10 days?) elicited such a huge response. I’m just kind of in shock here.
As Debra says in her post, the SEO lesson here is, positive, newsworthy items about a specific person or thing will almost always elicit a link from that person or thing to you. Like when I wrote about bacon salt. They linked back to me from their blog. That was crazy. I love bacon.
If you get a chance, and are even interested in this sort of thing, check out Debra’s link building blog. It’s one of the better ones out there.
