I posted stuff like this before, but did not give away all my insider secrets. What would you do for a link? ;)

• Create a quizes or contest

• Get the top score in a quiz doah, I should have cheated - talk about black hat link building ;)
• Win the Cooney Island hot dog eating contest.
• See how much weight you can gain in a month.
• Tell someone they are out to lunch. Has got me a few links.
• Say something out to lunch or offensive.
• Buy someone lunch. Give them something to talk about. Any Penn State proffesors want a free lunch? email me. If your university position is high enough and your university has a great link reputation I am also will to fly.
• Go to college to become a system administrator and web designer for a school. A friend of mine as a freshman was both last year. I am thinking this friendship may soon grow leaps and bounds.
• Get a crap job you do not care about. Write a humorous blog about it until you get fired for it.
• Have your child send $8.43 cash to the government to help pay down the federal debt. Make sure you are available for press comments and get links in your coverage.
• Move to Texas. They have big links there.
• Always carry a big flag around with you. Even in the shower.
• Help your local congressman get reelected. Get links from their site.
• Join the local government.
• Draft government bills with Orwellian terms, calling them exact opposite of what they do.
• Point out said flaws in Government bills.
• Join the military and work the .mil link angle.
• Buy your way into the government for .gov links. If you can not afford this move to a poorer country where you can afford to buy your way in.
• Get on the terrorist list by being a peaceful Muslim.
• Work on a plan to overthrow your government.
• Join or start a religious cult.
• Go to a conference - I go to learn too - but there is lots of link popularity floating around at conferences. I have got a free PR9 link from a conference I went to.
• Wear crazy clothes to a conference.
• Eat lots of food at the conferences. Refuse to bathe, use deoderant, or change clothes while at the conference. Tell everyone how you have had a lucky streak and did not want to change anything.
• Go to Vegas. Climb to the top of a casino and repeatedly yell jackpot while jumping up and down.
• Get on Donald Trumps TV show. Compete with him in a money losing contest. Take lots of pictures of yourself.

• buy a sports team. be its biggest rabid fan.
• Become a pro wrestler. you can do it young.
• Go streaking at a sporting event.
• Get caught on tape doing something illegal yet humorous.
• Get on a radio show. A friend of mine who used to sell adult sex toys (he sold his site, but it still ranks #1 for his primary keyword phrases) would go on the radio to get them to link to him. The shaddier your marketplace is the more value legitimate links.
• Donate or help someone with their site.
• Fix someone's car tire on the side of the road.
• Accidentally wreck into the car of a famous person, obscenely exclaim it was their fault, and then sue them.
• Get ran over by a rich person. etc.

• Create free tools or software with powered by or designed by links in them.
• Intentionally do something to get sued by a large overbearing company.
• Date or marry an annoying overhyped celebrity or marry into a link rich family.
• Talk about your brother's court case. Create a phpbb skin for a site pleeding his innocence. <-- cheap marketing. more people should do that.
• Routinely have cosmetic surgery done that deforms your face.
• Talk about Google showing nude pictures of LaToya Jackson when safesearch is on. What is that? That is not safe.
• Talk about how Google is ruining the world.
• Place controvercial 5 cent AdWords ads for hot issues.
• Talk Google's stock down at $85 and less than a year later talk it up at $260. Give people the hype they want. Avoid honest investment advice.
• Fraudulently invest others money on a massive scale. Serve 6 months and get a lifetime of free linkage.
• Start a .com company with an ignorant business model. See if you can lose money fast enough to build serious linkage data.
• Join the Global Neuroscience Initiative Foundation board of advisors. I still need to help them some with on the SEO front a bit, and get a link on that page. If nothing else this is a personal reminder. I think the brain is really cool and would love to learn a lot more about it. I think that is a kick ass project. :)
• Become a verb. The domain (http://www.verb.com/) is a ppc directory site
• Assume a fake identity. Sneak into the pressidential press room and ask bogus questions. Make it easy to find out that you work with gay porn sites. It has been done.
