Spend a little time. Search for “how to write linkbait”, or “how to create linkbait” and you will soon get hit by a bunch of how to’s<\/em>.<\/p>\n

You could bypass all that and go check out my list of linkbait<\/a> articles.<\/em><\/p>\n

After a while a pattern emerges in the step by step guides to linkbait, and it seems there isn’t that much to learn.<\/p>\n

However, there is a crucial, secret, million dollar, ultimate tip which I have not yet read on any SEO blog or marketing website.<\/p>\n

And that is to Fall in love<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Go find yourself a man or women and fall head over heals for them. I don’t mean in a pubescent “I gotta get me some” kinda way. I mean in a heart-aching-blood-pumping-nothing-gets-in-your way kinda thing.<\/p>\n

This is not hippy-dippy- artsy-fartsy, weak-minded, bohmian rubbish. This is hardcore, psychological, peering into the soul of the human psyche kinda stuff.<\/p>\n

\nWhen a man loves a woman
\nCan’t keep his mind on nothin’ else
\nHe’d trade the world
\nFor a good thing he’s found
\nIf she is bad, he can’t see it
\nShe can do no wrong
\nTurn his back on his best friend
\nIf he puts her down<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

When a man loves a woman by Percy Sledge.<\/em><\/p>\n

Reaching deep into yourself is important for a writer and writing linkbait is no different to writing a seminal pop song. Attention, the hook, inducing emotion, create action. It’s no different, it’s exactly the same structure.<\/p>\n
