    Wikipedia as a traffic source?

    Has anybody tried utilizing Wikipedia as a source of traffic, by editing/adding content to specific articles and then linking back to your websites as an authority on the subject?

    I would imagine that they have guards in place to stop people abusing the wiki this way but I'd also think there are times when certain market segment sites could actually legitimately link back to their websites.

          I have some links on to mainstream sites, it doesn't get any traffic. Gets me lots of link from people who scrape wikipedia though.

              100% true... I'm not sure if that ever helped me with SE traffic or not on some mainstream sites. Maybe it did...

              I try to post some cam girl stuff on there... shot down in about 15 minutes everytime though.

                  I had this southpark site yeaaaaars ago, and I linked back from the article on southpark to my site. It actually got some good traffic but they removed it after a couple of days.

                              I did the same. I was listed on the "Max Hardcore"-page a couple of years ago. I did get some sales every month but not more than ~3 or so.

                                          Only when i've done the whole page. Editing/adding just gets your link removed.

                                                  it prooves how desperate you are and you should consider visiting a shrink.
                                                  wikipedia is a nice tool that has been created by mankind. instead of abusing it, you should support it .

                                                  i hope you feel bad and go donate 5$ thru paypal to wikipedia foundation, for even considering using wikipedia as a spam tool and i give you absolution.
