A while ago my friend told me about a service called Hacker News. It is not managed by me, or anyone I know. I am not promoting anything I will earn money from. This thread is for you, to help you gain traffic and backlinks for your website.
Hacker News, or HN, is a public service that allows users to submit and view URLs. You can create a title for it, and give the URL. That's it. You DO need an account with them, but it's completely free and the registration process is painless.
Once logged in, head to the submit page and enter your link's details. Within the hour, your content will most likely have between 20 and 50 new views, regardless of when you published the content. It's a great service.
To go viral with HN (thousands upon thousands of views instead of 20-50), you'll need:
Even if your content does not go viral, you will still have those 20-50 views for each link you submit. Many users of HN are likely to share these links, meaning it's common to have your links spread around social networks and blogs quite quickly.
This method is very simple, but I use it for pretty much every article or piece of content that I publish online. I hope this helps you, and good luck!
I have put this in the SEO section because I believe it is not only a great way to gain traffic, but to gain powerful backlinks that can strengthen your website's SEO.
