Backlink Generator
I was drafting on a new article but I missed a word to describe something specific. Let me coin the term “Backlink Generator”. EDIT: Article now written here.
With “Backlink Generator” I mean a “machine” that generates backlinks passively. It is a tool, script or something else which makes people link to it without any effort from your part.
What is the difference between a Link Bait and a Backlink Generator?
With Link Bait people link to you because of the content. With a Backlink Generator people link to you because it is forced or made like that.
4 examples of good Backlink Generators
- Directory giving bonus when you provide a reciprocal link.
There are many directory scripts out there such as PHPLD, it is easy to set up and maintain. Once you get an attractive PR it will run almost by itself. People will link to it in order to get the “bonus” (featured link or whatever). If you make it free and get on the popular lists you will get good traffic which you will miss if you require a reciprocal for a free submission. - Topsites
Specifically those scripts such as Aardvark Topsites that give you nice static backlinks from the members. Those are also very easy to set up and maintain. - Providing blog themes
If you are good at web site designing than this is a good oppertunity. Design a few nice blog themes for example for Wordpress and have a link to your site in the footer. Make sure you get listed on the important theme lists so people download it. - Tools that web site owners can place on their own site
This is a bit harder to execute and probably even harder to get successful but the potential is higher than the other 3 I listed. You want a good example? Check this, anyone can place a button on their own site to their own visitor map. 713K backlinks to that page is not bad …
There are many more Backlink Generators that can be created, those are just from the top of my head and what I deem the most effective ones.
An SEO contest is a good Link Bait if executed well. If you then also force the contestants to link to you it also becomes a good Backlink Generator and even a better Link Bait due to the controversy …
It is very easy for a Backlink Generator to get a lot of links and good PR. I manage myself 5 and they are all PR 5-6 and each day they get about 2 new good backlinks, passively.
Use your Backlink Generators to link to your content sites!

I must say that is a really nice article, I already knew all this, but never thought about writing about it hehe
Interesting article, I’ve not really thought much about creating these. I think I’ll be adding this to my list of “Things to Try”
Have you written this article yet, or is it still in the writing? Do you have any other ideas?
Be well,
Moshe
No, sorry this article is not yet written. I have a lot of ideas and there will be some nice articles in the future.
Mr. Jim, thank you for putting this nice piece of really useful information for us to read. The point you mention is quite true, nowadays, bright ideas will bring great traffic to websites rather easily.
Especilly when there are so many inexpensive and in some cases free scripts to use on websites that people are always looking for them on the web.
Good tip man
Hmm, nice tips… I saw the title and thought you would probably speak about those spammy BL generators.
Liked the tips here.
Very useful information! Would having a top sites script hosted on your main content site be a wise decision or would there be backlash from say.. Google?
Good information.
it is a very good reference. I think one of the good example for backlink generator is statcounter.com , it is now PR 9 because many website use their services and link to it.

Good points, Jim. The suggestion about tools that web site owners can place on their own site is great, but it’s getting harder and harder to accomplish, since everybody seems to be doing this these days.
I guess the trick is to find a very specific niche with not so much “tool competition”.
And how much will be cost such tool!???
Yes of course thank you very much

You can also get website builders that creates sites for free and you can rebrand them with your own backlinks.
No work and very little cost per backlink if you have a suitable site to give them away.

Your points are quite logical Jim. I especially liked your point about creating blog templates and the themes and posting them on the web for having one way links.
Always thought setting up a link directory was a good idea…this just proves my thoughts correct. Thanks for sharing.
You manage five sites, could you please tell us which are them?
Added the tool from DigitalPoint to site. See what happens. I don’t like your spam protection for comments. Please keep math equations at ten or under. It’s real pain to have to remove shoes and socks just to post!!
