Optimizing thank you pages. Since we’re already on the topic of website usability, the thank you page is another place that often gets overlooked. By optimizing your thank you pages, you can get even more value out of each customer by asking for things like referrals, feedback or showing related products. Search Engine People blog has a nice post this week on this very topic.

Link building strategies. Michael Gray has a great article down at SEL on the use of contests and incentives for link building. Contests are great at generating links. Another type of linkbait you should consider is a quiz. We had an article in the last issue (Spring 09) talking about building links with quiz marketing. You can order that issue here. []
