Just make sure that what you are doing is not excessive and that it is something that you would do in the normal development of a site.

As far as linking goes the first thing I would do is check out high-quality directories. Check out <a href="http://dmoz.org" rel="nofollow">DMOZ</a> - this should always be your first submission. If you are considering renting links (paying per month), give me a call and I can give you some good recommendations on brokers. Preston Johnny,
