  Devin Peterson: I'm sure you can find a list of 101 link building strategies, however I discovered something that works quite well that is almost never mentioned. There are 2 things, first, develop relationships with other reputable businesses, try to find ways to use their service and/or to provide them a service then simply talk about getting a link. This effort is only worthwhile for business's with high PR sites, not your JoeSchmo blog and it's also very dependent on your industry. Worked great for me in auto industry, construction, and development businesses. Second, link to other places. This doesn't go as unnoticed as you think, so often times it increases your chances of getting linked back to.
