Now that most of the easy links such as from forums, blogs and free directories are being devalued (at least I think they are), where is the best place to go to get an easy, but authority link to your site?

I think DMOZ.org is still useful apart from having to wait a long time.

Another way is to produce templates that others will use so you get links back from a variety of IP addresses. But it helps to maybe target a related topic to your site and get keywords in the anchor text. For example, if your site is about dog training, you could provide free web templates featuring doggy themes and vary the anchor text amongst dog breeds, plus deep link to your site pages.

So rather than submitting to 1000's of directories, I think it is better to try and find just a few authoritative links.

Or if you can't stand link building, seek out social traffic if it suits your market.

What are your ideas on the subject?

Any link that sticks is a good link :) but it is getting harder to get an authority link. Best way is to write an extremely well-written article and submit it to article directories. Most of my articles have obtained some PR over the years since it's only 1 page to get to the article, unlike directories where there are multiple clicks to get to your chosen category. Press releases are probably "the best" if you have a product worth submitting.

I have exchanged links with directories and so far i earned a page rank of 1. im going to try your idea to put some free templates there where people can download. It was something i was actually thinking before.

I disagree that directories, forum and blog commenting is of no value nowadays because these techniques are very much useful to my site. Just keep on building links even not an authoritative links will help a lot.

I believe the best place to get an authority link is to find a high PR page in your niche and approach the owner of the site about getting a link.
Even if you have to pay (and you probobly will) it would be worth it.

I think it doesn't matter where you post your link as long as the link is dofollow and has a quality.
