Link Building 101 Rap: Could’ve Link baited, Look At What They Created…

I just ran across this gem via Cre8asite:

Lyrics:

You create a new site and its content heavy,
With the right amount of pictures so you think you ready,
So, you launch it trying to put money in da bank,
But when you search and try to find yourself, you can’t.

So you think, until your mind goes blank,
Got titles and headers but no page rank,
Sooner or later it’ll show if I wait,
So, In the meantime make sure my code validate.

And it do,
Now what I’m supposed to do,
Add meta information and alt tags too,
And I still don’t get listing,
Something must be missing,
Brad and Chuck recommended doing link building.

So, you start hunting down sites like a predator,
Doing back links on all your competitors,
Whoever linking to them need to link to me,
Is it free? Do we swap? Or do I pay a fee?

Well take it from us, before you take that step,
Some things about the site that you might want to check,
Did they use a link farm or some dirty tactics?
Could have a bad effect on your site that’s drastic.

Could’ve done some link baitin, look at what they created,
Compare it to yours, is it even related?
Take the time, go inspect and see,
Take advantage of paid directories.

If you follow all the steps with a little bit of patience,
Get links from relevant sites that are favorites,
Update your content on the regular basis,
I’m confident you’ll make it to first page placement!

It looks like this rap was created by YouTube user m0serious, who is a search marketer from 9 to 5. Ironically, it took more effort, than should have been needed, to find what search marketing company he works at or the original post for the video, but my super-mega search skills led me to these posts:

• Moserious Thoughts: Link Building 101
• Poplabs Semple Ideas: Link Building 101

I think the video could’ve been a sure hit (and still could be), should someone follow the advice in their own lyrics!
