What do you all think are the best methods for obtaining this? There are many ways to contribute to a site and higher it's rank. I find that adding a lot of content, and submitting to directories help the most. Mainly I like to use a lot of backlinks, so that when a site is crawled, my site is with it. Those three are probably my favorite, but I know there are a lot more.

Any suggestions are highly appreciated!
