Building Linkbait Outside of the Box


While everyone concentrates on content linkbait one thing many people over look is physical linkbait.

For example FedexFurniture show how an enterprising college student built furniture out of FedEx boxes (yes he did get a in a legal battle so go with the concept but steer clear of trademark issues). Building things out of Lego building blocks has always been popular on social media sites.

Need an idea for woodworking or metal shop or welding client, monitor and case mods are always popular. Got a lingerie shop why not dress your car in a thong (seriously don’t forget to put a URL on the whale tail … like duh).
