Ask a few friends to join my forum, make it look active, add new updates every day and add loads of contents and threads.
Provide or get advice on everything SEO, ask questions, gain confirmation or just become apart of a friendly, like minded community who love SEO and Online Marketing.
These are all great ways to build backlinks and move up in the rankings as well as advertise. I would also like to suggest Press Releases. These can be surprisingly effective when you have something specific to say.
The first thing I did was start going to blogsofnote.com every day to find out who the new featured blog was for that day. Then, I'd leave a comment on that blog with a reference link to something similar on mine.
yahoo and forum posting are great.Yahoo Answers, Blog Commenting and Forum Posting. These 3 are among the best was I know to advertise your blog for free. Using social networks like Twitter and Facebook can also help.
I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned but just asking is a popular method too.
example: "Hey guys, my site is new and so Google's not ranking it well yet, could you help me out by mentioning it somewhere or linking to it once or twice? Wherever you like is fine, thanks for the help!"
How many of you would be helpful if someone you know online asked?
