Where do you get most of your backlinks from?

I'm curious where you all get your backlinks from? free directories, link exchanges, article directories, paid site links? etc.

Most of mine are probably from directories, forum signatures, and link swaps.

I get most of my backlinks from forum signatures. Followed by articles, i think

**handsome rob** · 01-16-2007, 09:05 AM

Earned the old fashioned way (or bought in some cases).

**freetraff** · 01-16-2007, 04:36 PM

link exchange

**Pearse** · 01-16-2007, 05:13 PM

The link fairy.

Directories, forum sigs, blog articles.
Another good one is community profiles. You'd be surprised how easy it is to get a few great backlinks if you email a webmaster with similar interests as you are providing on your site. If your site is truly worth linking to, they will be happy to do it!

Word of mouth. The forum takes care of backlinks for me now that I have active members on my biggest site. I get about 3-4 new backlinks a day to different threads on my site.

I use mainly forum signatures now and will start directory and article submission later more seriously..

**imported_babyboy808** · 01-17-2007, 07:05 AM

I think if it's a forum, registering at competitors sites with a link in your sig is a good way to attract some visitors.
