One Link a Day
Here is a simple policy or goal to do. Post One link a day to your blog or websites. I have been doing this for a while I have a total 15 Blogs and websites now so I have widdled it down to posting links to the newer ones.
Do not analyze this information with page rank and S.E.O., just do it. It takes a while to get down the art of gracefully spreading your links. Once you craft your art it becomes second nature and you do it without thinking.
*Commenting on other peoples blogs is one way to spread your links. Like I said earlier do not think to much about S.E.O. You can comment on a blog about purple frogs, if you like the article. Just remember that your comments reflects you and your blog.
* Another way to spread your links is through forums. The best way to give your link good exposure in forums is to generally be helpful. Forums are found by people searching for answers to questions or problems. So If your suggestions or information is helpful, it will be looked at by many others with the same problem. Once again, forget about S.E.O. I am sure there are other topics you are interested in other than earning money with your blog. Here you can search forums by topic. Boardtracker.com
* Another good way to spread your links is with social networks. Most social networks allow you to have a signature line, and any comment, article or movement you make leaves a link back to your website.
Some people will tell you to only comment on high ranking websites, or ones that rank high for particular keywords. I say forget about all of that because your post will become more mechanical, and less sincere. Say no to Robotic writing.
The benefits of posting one link a day are tremendous. The whole practice teaches you to come out of your shell, and become more social. At the end of the year you will have 365 links back to your blog and maybe just as many new blog friends. People have a tendency to comment back at your blog, which really helps it look more lively. It is an all around win win situation.
Just think you can begin right now by posting a comment to this article. Go for it!

Thank you Bob Caine you gave me inspiration for a new topic what to do with dead blogs. I currently only maintain 6 blogs. I keep learning and making them better. The rest are abandoned. Georgia thanks for the compliment it means I am on the right track

Great idea. I should do this more often. It is hard to keep up with the discipline of putting up links
