You essentially write a post on a subject that you have outstanding knowledge and hopefully this coincides with your business venture, whatever that may be. If a search engine like Google also thinks you're an expert within a particular subject, then the subsequent links will also have more linking power.
• Articles: Articles are also essential for getting viable backlinks to your website. Similar to a blog, but you submit an article(usually 400+ words) to different article submission sites.

Many articles sites are overridden with spam and the search engines typically discount such sites.
• Link Trading: Trading links with another similar business, is a good way to establish yourself as an expert within a particular field. The key being that you better make sure that you're trading with another reputable company. Last thing you want, is being part of a huge link farm.
