Link Bombers : Why The Fuss. Shhhhhhh I’ll let you in on my little secret. A Non-Fiction Short Story written by Colleen Millsteed.

When we share our writing on Facebook we will inevitably be introduced to the people that believe it is okay to ‘link bomb’ our posts. It happens to all of us.

Those few writers, who believe it’s okay to selfishly drop their link, without even opening your writing. Their attempt at trickery, to get the reads without having to put in the work.

I see a lot of anger and upset due to these selfish writers — even to the point that the writers that are team players, feel they have to leave the groups.

I say to these writers, “please do not let these selfish people chase you away.”

In fact I’ll go as far as letting you in on my secret — on how I use these selfish individuals’ ‘link bombs’ to my advantage.

Ssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhh : here is my secret………please don’t spread it around 🤩

Every time someone comments on your post, your post gets moved to the top of the group, so there is the opportunity to have more ‘team players’ see your work.

So with that in mind, I appreciate the ‘link bombers’ for their assistance in getting my post seen by more group…
