Times are always changing and the number of links to your web site is the next thing on the slaughter board.
Just like everything else, when the world finds out and manipulates something, it becomes obsolete...
We see it over and over again..
The time has come where the engines need to value much more than how many links you have - but they need to value where these links are coming from extensively and much research will be addressed in this...
I say for now - if your serious about building a future on the web, you'd better start building some "BIG" links....
and what I mean by "BIG" is serious value sites...
You're going to need to stop focusing on how many links you can get, and start focusing on where you can get them from....
Basically the idea of all this stems from the industry and what search engines must do to rank webpages. Almost every webmaster across the net is learning that building inbound links to your website is a major part of search engine optimization. This is resulting in massive amounts of link exchange requests, along with major marketing campaigns targeting web directories and text link advertising.
For the search engines to maintain the quality and integrity we have come to expect, they have no choice but to re-create the value assigned to a website and how it is established.
Links from high quality heavy traffic news websites are a good example of where you would want to aquire a link. Search engines professionals and the creators of the algorithms know that these types of links arent exactly easy to aquire and generally lead to some other interesting information.
If your in a small niche market, you'll want to target top properties in that industry and get links from those sites.
I don't care what you have to do to get them....
You could spend 8 hours buying 200 links
or
spend 8 days acuiring 1 real "BIG" link...
and be much better off.
People always try to build links wherever they can, but these days - if it takes you 3 weeks with emails back and forth and back and forth to aquire 1 very strong relitive link,
You better start doing it!
