I’m not usually a lover of “meme” or “link love” type blog posts, but I’ve been amazed how successful the T list was amongst the travel blogging community. I’ve lost count the number of blogs that linked to my travel blog and participated, but we are talking a few hundred travel related blogs, and it spread around as fast an Australian bush fire.

The benefit of these types of posts is that it increases your Technorati ranking [be it for a short term], increases traffic, and increases the number of regular readers, which as a blogger, is something that we all aiming for.

I wonder though if Google frown against this type of link building exercise, and I guess it would be fairly easy to detect them, so it’s not something that you would want to participate in all the time - plus writing link love blog posts all the time will make your readers leave in their droves.
