Content should attract People
The easiest way to get people to link to your blog from their own blogs and websites is to publish great content. Naturally, if you write posts that are interesting, useful and helpful, people will want to talk about those posts on their own blogs and share them with other people. That means more links to your blog!

Submit to Blog-Directories
There are a number of blog directories where you can add a link to your blog such as Blog-Her. Some even include a social aspect such as Blog-Catalog and My-BlogLog, which provide multiple ways to increase the number of incoming links to your blog simply through your registration.

Get on Blog-rolls
If you have a good amount of compelling content published on your blog, approach other bloggers for a blog-roll reciprocal link. This is most successful when both blogs are related to the same subject and you develop a relationship with the other blogger by leaving comments on his or her blog prior to suggesting a blog-roll link exchange.

Write Guest Posts
Guest blogging is a great way to not only drive new traffic to your blog and promote your blog but also to increase the number of incoming links to your blog.

Hold Blog Contests
Blog contests are a great way to drive traffic to your blog and increase the number of incoming links to it. First, you can promote your blog contest on a variety of blog contest promotion sites to add incoming links. Then you can include a contest rule that tells entrants they can earn an additional entry into contest by writing about the contest on their own blogs with a link back to the original contest post.

Join Blog Carnivals
Blog carnivals are a simple way to increase the number of links to your blog. Simply find a blog carnival related to your blog's topic, write a post for the carnival and submit your post link to the main blog carnival site.

Articles for Other Sites
There are many websites that accept submissions from just about anyone such as eHow and Associated Content. Additionally, pursue opportunities to write for online magazines and publications related to your blog topic that accept freelance submissions. Be sure to include a link to your blog with your article and bio.

Create Blogs and Websites
Create additional blogs, websites, and more, and interlink all of them to increase your links exponentially.

Participate in Social Networking Sites
Social networking sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn and MySpace provide areas where you can include your blog's URL in your profile. Use your social networking accounts to further promote your blog and drive additional traffic to it.
