Need to drive traffic to your website or online newsletter? Try a girl with a crazy arm.
May 12th
What appears to be the May issue of the H&R Block online newsletter contains the following photo.
Now I don’t know if this young lady has a problem with her arm and if she does I wish her well.
The point is a link to this photo has been picked up or perhaps placed by H&R Block on some of the most popular social bookmarking sites on the internet such as Digg.com and Reddit.com. The links go to the H&R Block May newsletter. Do you see where I am going? H&R Block is getting a TON of traffic to their online newsletter today because of that photo. Will anyone following the link to see the photo actually engage H&R Block for their services? Who can really say? But eyeballs that have never seen their newsletter before are there today. Just keep in mind that there are tools out there like this for you to experiment with when you are looking to go outside the box with your marketing efforts.
