It\u2019s a question every blogger asks themselves. I want to answer it here by outlining 8 content methods that seem to work wonders on social media while also generating a lot of grassroots inbound links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can you bring these powerful post types to your own blog?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Resource lists<\/strong>. The useful list of resources requires two ingredients: time and a good eye for quality. If a resource list seems useful many readers will bookmark or vote for it on face value alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> If your blog is struggling, a useful resource list can be an effective way to spark up your traffic and links. Here\u2019s an example of a well-done resource list:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6657486461510168\" data-ad-slot=\"7270636035\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<p>Productivity Toolbox: 37+ Tools for Taking Action and Getting Things Done<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Lists of tips.<\/strong> Quantifiable lists of tips are really attractive to readers because they explain in just a few seconds what a visitor stands to receive in return for their attention. You see them everywhere \u2014 and that\u2019s because they work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Here\u2019s an example of a good list of tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nine Factors to Consider When Determining Your Price<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Good advice.<\/strong> A quality advice post generally sticks to one topic and provides in-depth info on it. In order to maximize the benefits, you\u2019ll need to provide advice people are hungry for. Avoid over-saturated topics and try to work out what your audience wants to do but doesn\u2019t yet know-how. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good advice post can bring you a lot of success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s an example of one such post:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Guide to Creating a Minimalist Home<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Arguing a popular point of view.<\/strong> People like to have their worldview affirmed. If you can articulate something a lot of people agree with, those who agree with you will champion your post. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those who disagree will probably still link to you because their response won\u2019t make sense otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This method works best when the topic isn\u2019t too divisive. A reader won\u2019t abandon your blog simply because you like Facebook and like MySpace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They might abandon ship if you argue that capital punishment is necessary and that view is something they strongly disagree with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure you\u2019re not going to lose as many readers as you gain. Here\u2019s an example of this method done well:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ding Dong, Digg is Dead<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6657486461510168\" data-ad-slot=\"7270636035\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Q&amp;As with high-profile<\/strong> people. Interviews with well-known bloggers always seem to get links, comments, and traffic. The nice thing about this method is that the only work involved is writing questions and approaching bloggers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The success rates for getting interviews are pretty high as most bloggers love talking about themselves! Here\u2019s a clever example of this method in action:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bloggers Face-Off: Darren Rowse vs. Jeremy Schoemaker<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. <strong>Best-of lists<\/strong>. At this time of year, you\u2019ll see a lot of \u2018Best of 2007\u2019 round-ups, though best-of lists seem to work well at all times. They\u2019re effective because people are constantly searching for the \u2018best of everything. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a term that promises high quality. It also generates interest because \u2018best\u2019 is subjective \u2014 what\u2019s best for you might be mediocre for others. Ranked lists always seem to generate links, traffic, and debate. Here\u2019s a good, recent example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Best Blogs of 2021 That You (Maybe) Aren\u2019t Reading<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>7. Anything with a killer headline.<\/strong> When others link to you, it\u2019s usually done in the space of a paragraph or even a single sentence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bloggers don\u2019t want to have to spend too long explaining what a post is about. Your headline should do most of the work for them. Sometimes a really outstanding headline is all it takes to get traffic and links. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, you\u2019ll receive much greater rewards if the headline is matched by a great post. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s an example of this method in action:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Web 2.0 World is Skunk-Drunk on its Own Kool-Aid<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can you think of any other types of blog posts which always seem to get links and traffic?<\/strong><br><em>Read more posts like this&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6657486461510168\" data-ad-slot=\"7270636035\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here\u2019s a really good question: what kinds of posts should I write to get more links and traffic?
