    I really enjoyed checking out your article. It goes to show that people could really use to spend more time talking to their target demographic and using them to generate the ideas instead of guessing what might stick.. also really digging into the search traffic trends can help identify what kinds of topics people are actually searching for help on. Great work!

    I think these are very good ideas about link-building opportunities. The devil is in the execution and the time and effort involved in generating decent useful content for this strategy to work. The other issue is that once someone starts doing something everyone else does it badly and then it becomes spam which leads to the door closing.

    Excellent post, here’s my favorite link building cheat that I stumbled on. Enter this into the google search engine bar:

    site:com/phpbb2

    Find relevant forums that are no-follow on the signature page and voila, your’re in business!

    John - Nick,

    Both of you raise some very good points! I definitely think people need to spend more time doing consumer research for link building ideas and less time reading SEO blogs/forums.
