Add fun, dynamic content without all the work
Thursday, September 07, 2006
I'd like to share this earth-shattering news with you: David Hasselhoff (of Knight Rider and Baywatch fame) has come out with a classic
new music video
that should not be missed. How did I find out about it? I saw a dynamically generated link to it from
Google Related Links
at the bottom of my blog. (And I've found some other gems that way that have to wait for another post.)
Let me give you what the MBAs call the 8-second elevator pitch (our buildings are not very tall around here) on Google Related Links. The idea is you surf over to
http://www.google.com/relatedlinks/
and start creating a Google Related Links unit for your site. You pick the color, size, and types of content (related news, videos, searches, web pages) that you want to appear in this Related Links unit, and then copy the JavaScript over to your site just as you would do for an AdSense ad unit. Google crawlers will then crawl your site, see what type of content is there, and then dynamically show links in the unit that relate to your site.
While Google Related Links don't give you revenue directly, you can use them to keep your site fresh and interesting without any maintenance. Happy visitors mean repeat visits. And if you're feeling especially creative, try alternating between Google ads and Google Related Links in a given space on your page. This will encourage people to look in that space for interesting dynamic content.
Oh, and by the way, you're more than welcome to click the links in a Google Related Links unit on your own site. Happy surfing!
