Link magnet
What is link magnet?
A link magnet is a page built specifically to attract links — original data, a free tool, a template library, or a definitive guide.
Why it matters
The test is simple: would another writer need to cite this to make their own point? If not, it is content, not a magnet.
Magnets keep earning links for years, which is why they usually beat one-off placements on cost per link.
