quality article!
My least favorite objection to linkbaiting and creating viral content: "Who cares if these sites send
thousands of visitors? Our customers don't read Digg / StumbleUpon / TechCrunch! I can't see how it would make any difference at all."
(No, most of your customer probably don't - but your address will get international exposure and some people will link to you - leaving a trail for those who eventually will become your customer. Once your name is "out there" then eventually the right people will be able to find you. But if you don't put it out there, they probably never will.)
