In the SEO community you always hear of how to scam backlinks.  Well, I’ve gotten 3 backlinks to my WordPress post in the last couple of days about Permalinks fail in WordPress.

While this was a huge blunder on WordPress’s plate and might be even bigger because they haven’t even fixed it yet, I came up with a simple workaround.

Because of this workaround, I’ve been helping other people out and they have been linking to the post.

Moral of the story?
Helping People = Backlinks
