What is the purpose behind link baiting?

[chuckgarcia201]

In the field of search engines, I have made a long search then I made a website. Some SEO services can help a website and now I'm learning. I worked on any equality of optimization, and search engines as it was easy for me to understand the concept of an online blog. I see nothing special about this technique. Link baiting is the service of which I speak. There is a hint of this service is that? In SEO, there is this service in any way? For the implementation, what the benefits are with these? I want to know what you think of this.

Thank you so much.

Link Baiting means to create something that naturally attract backlinks for your web page by getting people to talk about it, discussing it on forums, blogging about it, linking to it from their sites. It also attracts a lot of visitors.

And most importantly, if others find your story/blog interesting they link to it boosting your rankings as long as they are dofollow links. Nofollow links have non, or very little, SEO value.
