Many replies here correctly say “great content” helps, but the practical difference is making content a true, linkable asset and then putting it in front of the right people. Data from a large Backlinko/BuzzSumo study shows most published posts never earn an external link — only a small fraction become the “power posts” that attract sustained links — and certain formats (Why/What posts, infographics, long research) tend to earn links more reliably. (backlinko.com)

Build assets people will cite. Examples that earn links repeatedly: original research or datasets, simple web tools/calculators, long definitive guides or checklists, downloadable templates, and embeddable visuals (infographics, charts) with an easy-to-copy HTML snippet. Backlinko’s list of link-building strategies highlights web tools and embeddable content as especially effective (Siege Media’s embed-generator is a concrete example). (backlinko.com)

Make promotion the plan, not an afterthought. Use targeted outreach (contact sites that already link to similar resources), the Skyscraper approach (improve a popular resource, then ask its linkers to consider yours), and broken-link outreach (find dead pages linking to good resources and offer yours as a replacement). These are practical, time-tested workflows — but they require careful vetting and personalization to work. (backlinko.com)

Measure, iterate, and stay white-hat. Track referring domains and placements with Search Console and your backlink tool of choice, refresh assets that gain traction, and repeat promotion. Do not buy links or participate in large-scale link schemes — Google’s guidance and link-spam updates make those high-risk, short-term moves. (developers.google.com)

A short outreach template to adapt:

Hi [Name],

You linked to [old resource] — I built an updated, data-driven version here: [URL]. It covers [one-sentence benefit]. Would you consider swapping the link?

Thanks, [Your name & short credential]

Notes tied to the thread: was right that “fresh idea” matters — prioritize unique data or utility. ’s point on on-page quality matters too: make the landing page authoritative and easy to cite. ’s emphasis on clear writing is essential — journalists and bloggers won’t link to sloppy copy.

OK! You expect great things, getting inbound links without having to ask for it. Sure that you need and should to provide something great there. Which can helpful for many people, great quality, and never published before.
Honestly, I didn't (not mean can't getting) inbound link without ask for it. Since I think it's a big deal and may be need some "fresh idea" to post an great content.
But if you have these skill, why not to try?

Who cares about deploying link building schemes if your pages highly rank already?

Optimize your content, optimize your web pages. Make the web pages themselves be your best ranking factor.

When you write content be sure that it will be unique and meaningful for the visitor. And provide the content at right place and at right time when needed.
And for getting the links with the content, you can use blogs , article and videos. And with that provide the content on your social media profile will be helpful for getting the links and traffic.

I think if you post blog, article, press release, story submission and many other content base activity then you get more and more inbound link through content.

Writing fresh, catchy and meaty content deliberately attract links towards it.
- Check for grammar and syntax (some may argue that it doesn’t matter but it signals sloppiness)
- Include well-researched keywords in appropriate density

Yes indeed, write intelligently. Enforce your keyphrases using the language itself. If you craft your content then the search engine understands it is important enough to compose properly. Avoid repetition, compliment your important terms with synonymous ones. The search engine understands that writing well requires expressing ideas in various manners. Pluralize, use prefix and suffix variables, annotate, emphasize lightly, abbreviate, use acronyms, antonyms, morphology, lexicons ...
