This little link train was started by my friend Prija from Blogging the Movie. Building on the success of the Technorati faves train by Gary Lee, this train hopes to not only help blogs gain exposure but also to build backlinks to improve Technorati ranking.

The unique thing about this link train is that all links have the nofollow tag on it — meaning they will be blind to search engines. This is important because certain search engines may frown upon this type of link building strategy (i.e. Google).

Also, by joining the train, you have a chance to win the best-selling book The 4-hour Workweek courtesy of Blogging the Movie!

How to Join the Train

  1. Write an original short snippet introduction to avoid duplicate content.
  2. Just copy the section between the start and end.
  3. Add your 3 favorite blogs with rel=”nofollow” in the link on the code page.

    <a href=”http://url.com/” rel=”nofollow” target=”_blank”>URL.com</a>

    This is extremely important to ensure that Google won’t ding us. Make sure you contact the bloggers and insist they participate so they can keep this going.

  4. Email your URL of your blog post to Free4hourWorkweek@gmail.com
