1> Be interesting

People will talk about you if you give them something interesting to talk about. You want to sell yourself to the people who will sell you. Some interesting topic ideas include: helpful ideas such as little known facts or tutorials, thoughts on new issues, entertainment, and taking a stand on heated subjects.

2> Drive engagement

Make the sharing of your content easy by including tools for your readers to share, comment, and vote. Shine the light on your readers by creating incentives to reward them for passing your content along. Comment often and don’t be afraid to ask your readers to comment.

3> Earn trust and respect

Jason says you can be polarizing on issues and still be a nice guy. It’s OK to take a stand on an issue and be bold about a particular subject, just make sure to take others’ ideas into consideration and respond to alternative viewpoints on your ideas. Good conversation will generate good inbound links and more search traffic.
