Hello,
I thought I would remind you of some of the obvious things that all of us have the luxury of forgetting sometimes.
Bringing traffic to your site by creating links is all quite obvious, however, are you thinking about just creating links to your site for the sake of more incoming links, or are you considering real people coming to your site. A lot of people seem to forget that real links to your real site are there for real people to find your site and want to follow the link. With this in mind consider what your link really says rather than just trying to create the most keyword rich text you can to impress Google and instead impress the real person who has come across your link in amongst the other links on the page they are viewing. Naturally spiders do work links, and they do need to be encouraged to your website, but keep the user in mind, you would benefit from 3 users visiting your link more than you will from 30 spiders visiting. So, make your links relevant to people, and ensure the links are to pages that are human friendly and your visitors will thank you for it.
A good place to create quality links is in directories. There are thousands of directories for all kinds of market niches, and it is time consuming to build links in directories, however, these are probably the best source of incoming links your site can reasonably expect to have. So search for your business type with the word directory appended to your query. For example, if you are a travel agent, search for travel agent directory, and then plod through the results and add a link to your website from each of the directories that will allow you to list for free. Some require reciprocal links and where this is required, you should endeavour to provide these.
These two tips are obvious, but sometimes the most obvious things are the most easily forgotten.
Ciao for now
