I just read the transcript of 8 Link Building Tips – Whiteboard Friday by SEO Moz and wanted share with you one interesting method of getting a popular blogger’s attention and building a relationship with them. From this you may get a mention on their blog with a backlink and guest post opportunities.
Here’s what SEO Moz says:
This could be a little bit stalkerish, but it’s cool.
Amazon have a facility where you can search for other people’s wish lists using their email address. So if there’s a really good blogger who you want to impress, put their email address into Amazon Wish Lists and see if they’ve got one.
If they have, maybe send them a gift with a little note saying it’s from your company, you really appreciate the work they do and the blog posts they’re putting out. It’s a great way of building a relationship. They’re going to reply to you. They’re going to say thank you.
How to do it
