Spamming SEO Generations – or exploiting “secondary linkbait”

Jim Boykin caught red handed!  And they call me a spammer….
With all the massive recent talk of linkbait a.k.a. link bait, one of the most successful ideas mentioned that helped us all in the SEO community kill some time playing with it instead of SEOing something, was SEO Generations – an online game where you have to vote for different SEOs to decide who wins an SEO battle. Initially, there was a set of pictures uploaded by the author of the game, but everybody could add their own pictures resulting in more heroes getting involved in the game.

Very soon, people understood the publicity that comes from being in that game. Some seem to have understood it better than others, though! Some of this second category – gasp – appear to be the top people in the SEO community! What I mean is some people appear in the list of the game protagonists more than once – which of course creates double exposure for them. Among those lesser known guys who do we see but Jim Boykin! And they’ve been calling me a spammer….

Well guys, now I have a perfectly legitimate excuse for uploading another copy of my own picture – I’ve just got a new logo custom made for me so why not use it 😉

P.S. I hope Jim has a good sense of humour 😉
