I also think it matters what kind of contest you put up there and it is important to have a contest that is easy to enter, yet involves the people entering adding some value as well. So in order to have that taking place, one should carefully strategize how to set this up. I am sure there are some resources for where we can find some good material for this online.

Here are some more tips you may find interesting that may bring additional inbound links to your website: Tip #8: Develop valuable content. Create interesting, unique content. Make it easy to read and understandable. Double check it to eliminate grammatical and spelling errors. Attractive and appealing text is great opportunity to gain links to your website and a chance of becoming cited source and website with high authority. Tip #9: Enable easy linking to your website. When you write a valuable content let people easily link to it. Enable users the use of social bookmarking services. Add "Digg this" buttons and similiar on your website. Tip #10: Ask for links. Easy as it may sound it is rather more complicated process. Actually as long as you are not well recognized and respected person in your industry you should expect to get mostly negative answers for your emails. But don't give up. Keep trying and you might success. Combined with timeless content on your site you may expect some positive answers and you may gain valuable links to your website. But remember: Think about your customers. Link with sites that will bring benefits to you AND your visitors. Tip #11: Conferences and business meetings. Attend your industry conferences, meet with people from your branch. Talk to them in person, make relationships with gurus in your trade. Don’t be shy and start a conversation. You may extend that person to person relationship onto the web which may help grow your business and gain some links to your website. You may also make interesting interviews with the “inside people”. Such interviews make original content quite easily and they may spread quite fast on the Internet distributing your links on different websites. I hope those tips will help you out in your link building campaigns. Comment and share. Thanks. First of all, thanks for all your comments.

Most of your ideas suggest one of the model I think would change the way we think about marketing. The future of marketing will be a Philanthropic approach. So, the punchline for my Marketing Gossip blog is "Philanthropists are greatest marketers and vice versa". due to this fact, it's not a matter of wonder if businesses generate social activities and run several philanthropic programs. <em>Asif Anwar's last blog post..<a href='http://marketinggossip.blogspot.com/2008/06/13-prophecies-of-internet-marketing.html' rel="nofollow">13 Prophecies of Internet Marketing - The Near & Far Future of Online Marketing</a></em> Hi Pawel,

It’s a good article with the suggested 101 List model. Most of your ideas suggest one of the model I think would change the way we think about marketing.

The future of marketing will be a Philanthropic approach. So, the punchline for my Marketing Gossip blog is “Philanthropists are greatest marketers and vice versa”. due to this fact, it’s not a matter of wonder if businesses generate social activities and run several philanthropic programs.

Look how easy it is to post on Yahoo! answers. You can answer real people questions, provide them with your knowledge and you gain reputation, trust and possibly new clients. A contest is really good way to get inbound links and interest on the Internet. Even if the prize is not high people are still interested in participation. It doesn't necessarily have to be an online contest. It can be a contest in a restaurant, a newspaper or local radio station. You can promote your company/business and gain new clients/visitors interested to see the contest. And as Dark Side mentioned, "you still have to promote the contest". I agree. @Mike Morabito: it's not the question if it makes sense, if you can make it happen it will make sense. You need to try. That's my opinion. If you won't try you won't know. @S.Hamel: Yes, of course good quality content is the most important to get links. If a website is poor in content, nobody will like to link to it. And that's the eternal truth of SEO. But my article is about other ways of gaining links that also work well. @Julia - Fast Blog Finder: Yes, the ideas are absolutely everywhere. You just need to think of them. Every industry/website is different and may acquire new links in different way. Not everything works well for everyone. What works for me, doesn't necessarily have to work for you. Thanks for all the comments so far.

Sidenote: this list could have been easily expanded to fit #3, just makie it a 101 list in, say, 5 installments.
