I use all those that you mentioned, I also like to use video marketing, Google is in love with videos at the moment.

Hubpages, squdoo lenses, Blogger blog are also good for supporting sites and creating back links.

I find a good press release can work great too, as it can be pick up by thousands of news sites, and directories if done right.

This is really just the start, there are also podcasting sites, document sharing sites, social networking, etc

Article marketing is also a very good way.

Hello,
Search Engine Optimisation has two distinct area's the first being On-page optimisation and the second, off-page optimisation. On-page optimisation is what you can actually do to your website that will affect your ranking on the search engines. This includes changing your title tags, H1 Tags etc. Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) like anything else adheres to the 80/20 rule, whereby on-page optimisation accounts for 20% of search engine rankings.

The other 80% comes from link building, which is by far the hardest part when it comes to SEO. Link building is getting other sites to link back to your own website. Like everything else in the world, links have varying degrees of quality, you get really poor quality links which can actually harm your website or you can get excellent links which will help your rankings tremendously. Obviously, the best quality links are the hardest to obtain. For your information, the best kind of links to get, are links that come from Universities or Government websites. Search Engines love these links and if you do manage to get one your website will almost certainly help get your website on to the first page within a couple of months.

To the OP,

You made some good suggestions, but there is a lot more to it than just 'link building'.

First of all, your links must be relevant. If a site about dog food with a pr5 is linking to your site which is about business, then Google would see this link a non relevant, giving you basically no value at all.

Then there is the issue with the rel="nofollow' tag. Most directories will link to your site, no problems, but they will use this 'rel="nofollow' tag which prevents the pr from passing on, making this link useless. This applies to all links.

If you can find a linking source which is relevant and has good pr, you need to make sure you use the appropriate anchor text. Usually a keyword term you are targeting. Once again, this link must be followed or it will be deemed useless!

As Vidiky pointed out there is 'on page' and 'off page' optimisation. You need to make sure your 'on page' is spot on otherwise all of the work you put into link development (off page) will be a waste of time as your website will leak all of the pr you are trying to build.

Think of your site as a bucket, with hundreds of holes in it. No matter how much water you pour in, the water will just keep running out!

I hope this helps.
