Hello,
You guys are doing great!
This week, I got so many emails.
People shared their stores.
They told me they started submitting to web directories.
One person said:
“I never knew it was this easy to find directories with ChatGPT!”
(Truth? I didn’t either — until I tried. Boom. 50+ directories in 10 seconds 😅*)*
Others already scheduled a whole month of social media posts using lzyPost.
That’s wild.
And awesome.
Good job, good job.
You’re building real stores.
You’re building real traffic engines.
So today — let’s go one step further.
Let’s talk about how to build backlinks actively…
…and get passive sales in return.
We’re going into the wild
Reddit + Quora
These are places where people talk.
They ask questions.
They search for stuff.
And they need answers.
Questions like:
- 👉 “What’s a funny gift for a nurse?”
- 👉 “What’s a good present for my lawyer friend?”
- 👉 “What are some cute mugs for cat lovers?”
These are people looking for ideas.
They want help.
And that’s where you come in.
How this works
Here’s the plan:
- You find a question that fits one of your products.
- You write a helpful answer.
- You add a product link — only if it makes sense.
When you do this right, two good things happen:
✅ You create a real backlink to your store.
✅ You get real people visiting — people who are ready to buy.
Real Example: “Gifts for Lawyers”
Go to Reddit and search:
“gifts for lawyers”
You’ll find threads like:
“Best gifts for a new lawyer?”
“What to buy a friend who just passed the bar?”

Now imagine this:
You have a mug in your store that says:
“I’m (Almost) a Lawyer”
Perfect, right?
You jump into the thread.
You say something simple like:
“Saw this and thought it could be a perfect gift for a new lawyer. Funny and actually useful too.” - [Insert your product link]
Boom.
That one comment can bring in buyers.
And yes — PODtomatic uploads quotes like this all the time.
It loads your store with funny, niche products daily.
So when you see a thread like that, all you need to do is:
Reply. Link your product. Done.
Active work → Passive reward
When someone else searches for that same question later:
They’ll find the thread.
They’ll read your reply.
And if your product is funny and fits?
They’ll click.
And maybe buy.
That’s why I call it:
Active backlinks → Passive sales
Do the work once.
Let the traffic come in again and again.
Quick heads-up about Reddit 😅
Reddit can be a little strict for new users.
So if you’re just starting, here’s what to do:
- Make a Reddit account
- Wait a few days
- Leave some comments in beginner subreddits like r/funny, r/AskReddit, or r/CasualConversation
This builds up your “karma” score.
Once you’ve got some karma, Reddit will let you post links safely.
Yes, it’s a bit annoying.
But it’s worth it.
Reddit traffic is super high quality.
Quora works the same way — just with fewer rules.
Find questions.
Give helpful answers.
Share a product link when it fits.
Pro tip: Use ChatGPT to help
Not sure what to write?
Just copy the question from Reddit or Quora.
Tell ChatGPT your store name, what you sell, and which product you want to share.
It’ll write a good answer for you.
You copy, paste — done.
And bonus:
Every time you do this, ChatGPT learns a little more about your store.
You’re teaching the AI… while also building a backlink.
So let’s recap…
You now have 3 smart ways to build backlinks:
✅ Web directories — help Google find and rank your site
✅ Social media posts — easy traffic + daily backlinks (use lzyPost)
✅ Answering questions on Reddit + Quora — intent-driven traffic that lasts
These three are more than enough.
No need for fancy SEO stuff.
Just show up in places where people already hang out.
Coming up next…
You’ve now learned how to build backlinks — and get free traffic.
Next time, I’ll show you how to grow your store without backlinks at all.
Yep. It’s totally possible.
Stay tuned.
For now…
Keep going.
Keep planting seeds.
I’m here with you.
Talk soon,
Bank K.
P.S. We’ve come this far together — and I’d love to hear where you are right now.
Just hit reply and say something like:
“I’m building my store!”
“I’m submitting to web directories!”
“I’m posting on social media!”
“I’m answering questions on Reddit!”
Whatever stage you’re at — I’m cheering for you!
Every reply gives me fuel to write the next episode.
We’re doing this together.
P.P.S.
If you haven’t got PODtomatic to upload products to your store yet, now’s the time.
This PTE series is wrapping up soon (might be next week), and when it ends…so does the special price.
So if you want to lock in the PODtomatic Shopify Plan at the lowest price we’ve ever offered, here’s your chance:
No pressure. But if you’re building a store and want it to grow…this will save you hours every single day.
