Interesting article on MarketingProfs--Links- How the Search Engines Find You--totally behind the times, though.  Links on websites, no.  Start a blog, write in your niche, link to your main website (or just have a blogsite like through Bryght), and Bob's your uncle, the search engines find you.  The old paradigm of building a website and trying to set sites to link to you is done.  Blogs achieve this because search engines will find you before other people link to you.  Of course as people link to you, and your articles, that association will become stronger.
