Link bait (or linkbait) refers to anything on a website that encourages links from other websites. It can include content, online tools, downloads, or anything else that another site owner might find compelling enough to link to. Link bait is important because most search engines use backlinks as a major factor in determining ranking.

Link bait is content on your site to which other sites link because they want to, not because you ask them to. Links are hard to get, requiring you to at least link back But with link bait, you "bait" your content and sit back and wait.

Here is a list of ideas how to link bait:

Make a valuable resource (lists, special reports, history of, how to, etc.)
Interview (e-mail/phone) prominent people and publish it.
Build a useful tool
Write an interesting article
Run a newsworthy ‘event’ such as a contest
Test something new that has not been done before
Be the first in doing something on the internet
Write something controversial
Be the first to write the latest news in your niche
Be the first to expose a scammer
Disagree with an authority
Write some funny humor
Make an interesting picture
Be the first to research and document something
Make a theme, plugin or piece of software
Make a tool that others can put on their sites but that links to you
Make a joke about a known person
Make a resource that is just in time for a major event
Write an outrageous theory and back it up with logics
Write useful comments on something that is happening
Give something valuable for free
Coin a new acronym in your niche and get people to talk about it
Become an expert in your niche and write valuable information

Great list of ideas!

Once you get your link bait written, one of the best ways to "announce" it to the online world is to submit your post/article to lots of social bookmarking sites. You want to get it in front of as many bloggers as possible to increase your chances of someone writing about it.

Blogging and answering questions online are good example of link baiting
