Get Them While They’re Hot – Free Links from Wired

Thumbs Up GirlIf you are looking for another quality link to your website (and who isn’t), Search Engine Land’s Barry Schwartz has pointed out a way to get one. It seems that Wired Magazine’s online presence has a section called Wired How To – which is essentially a wiki that allows registered users to add and edit pages on the site.

Based off of Barry’s research, the pages on Wired’s How To wiki do have a good chance of getting Google love, and the links seem to pass juice.

Of course with Barry writing about this on Search Engine Land you can pretty much count on Google discounting the links from Wired’s How To…but if you are looking for something to do, head on over, get signed up and add a new page to the site. Even if the link might be discounted on Google, it still might have some pull with Yahoo! and MSN.

[UPDATE: The SEL post about Wired links generated so much spam on the Wired How To site that Danny Sullivan, the SEL chief, had to apologize publicly to Wired. Ouch. That's what happens when you tell people where to get free links.]
