Check the page rank of as many Websites you can find in your industry and start by asking the ones with the highest rank. Link to them first on your Resources page and then email them and ask for a link back. Send them the keyword-rich link text you would like them to use for your Website. If you are a member of the Better Business Bureau or your local Chamber of Commerce make sure they have your website address as they usually link to you automatically and this helps in local searches. Check to see who is linking to you by using Yahoo Site Explorer. All of this sounds labor intensive but it’s worth a year of your time if it helps you get the No. 1 spot.
