To make it even better, what if you can insert a backlink when you text is pasted somewhere else. Its a great way for attribution, tracking what content is popular, and gaining some inbound links. Tynt Insight allows you to do this. Its a free service and there is even a slick reporting dashboard. You simply signup, generate your unique bit of JavaScript and insert it into your site. Each time a user pastes content from your forum into an email, blog or website, Tynt automatically adds an URL link back to your sites original content. When someone clicks that URL, they are directed back to your site and see the original content. This drives incremental traffic to your site when your content is shared without your knowledge while maintaining a consistent user experience. Make link-backs to your content effortless for readers and gain new insight into user engagement with Tynt Insight. With this modification, you can bring up to 40% more visitors to ceratin pages on your forum.
