Wikipedia backlinks

Since Wikipedia is currently the world's largest wiki, you should consider contributing a Wikipedia article about your website.



Have any of you tried this?

Unless your business or website is "notable", it will probably get flagged as spam and deleted. See these guidelines:

Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

The wikipedia editors are pretty efficient (and ruthless), especially with new articles or anything done by new or anonymous editors.

@Aaron You're a buzz kill. I thought this was a powerful idea.

Oh well. Thanks for saving me some time.

Or...you could hire an established wiki writer and have them tag the article to your site...nah, probably not

Tried it with no success. Either they spam and delete or they don't take the time to publish because we aren't that "important" to the wiki geek.

Wiki is very hard to get a link in for self promotion.
