Use an automatic link directory, such as the one that DaniWeb has. It's hands off, no work for you, and people can submit links instantaneously for instant gratification, and it even periodically does linkback checks on the sites.

Link exchange directories are a controversial topic in the SEO world. According to Danny Sullivan (editor of SEW), Eric Ward is the top authority on link building. Eric Ward has been involved with link building since the late 90's and worked on Amazon. He states that link swapping is "almost" always a waste of time. According to Aaron Wall, author of the SEO Book , he has a site that is ranking pretty relying solely on link swaps.

Putting the functional aspect of link building swapping aside, many believe that link swaps "take away" from the quality of a site. Linking to off-topics and random sites may look unprofessional. Most would agree that the goal of a site should be to serve the visitor, not the spider. IMHO, a link exchange directory is good, if you keep it neat, professional, and is designed to give value to your user. In my industry, I see local real estate agencies in rural America linking to sites in Turkey. You get my point.

In sum, if you do automate your link building process, make sure that you keep your links section organized in a fashion that primarily serves the visitor. Limit your directory to sites that are on topic.

I encourage related web sites by offering a full page to there site, this gives them the opportunity to fully detail what their site is about, I offer the acceptance of banners on these pages (within reason) and they are allowed 3 links per page so they can deep link properly.

It seems to be working as it gives me a content page and them the coverage that they feel is appropiate and they also then give a decent recipricol exchange back.

How can someone like me who feels that I don't want to place links on my site because it may bring the quality of the site down. I do not want to overfill the users with links. Is there a workaround for tha?

well you can go for One-way and Three-way link exchanges.

Also you can submit lotta articles with a link to your website in them to quality websites/Article Directories specialy ment for this purpose.

Each article published would be a quality One-way links to you. :cheesy:

Also you can submit Pres Releases linking keywords in the releases to webpages of your website.

I guess my next question would be then, what are some of the good, reliable, sites where articles can be published? And, what should be included in those articles?

PRWeb.com is one of many sites to post a press release (with a link) and hope someone picks it up!
