From the seminal SEOBook article “101 Ways to Build Link Popularity in 2006”<\/a>:<\/p>\n

1. Sorry, but link building is still going to be the SEO trump card for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n

2. I wouldn’t hold your breath for search engine algorithms to place less importance on link popularity until the Semantic Web arrives, or maybe when HTTP gets replaced by a new protocol. Because links are still the basic connector, the basic relationship, on the Web. And for the forseeable future they’re going to be the easiest way for a computer program to judge the importance and trustworthiness of a Web page.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Whether your concern is your primary web site, your weblog — or both — the essence of search engine findability is the inbound link. Our goal at BloodhoundBlog is to build a community — but we want to build a big<\/i> community. We don’t go out of our way to attract links — contemporaneous appearances seemingly to the contrary — but neither do we shun them.<\/p>\n

I’ll come back to this as we proceed, because I think it’s interesting. In the mean time, what’s the best way to attract an inbound link? Very simple: An outbound link.
