Create screen savers and submit to the many screen saver directories.

Grab some relevant pics from Istockphoto (cheap) or MorgueFile (free), make them into a screen saver and submit to the various screen saver directories.

Tip: Your TuelBar and The Big Page each contain lots of links to free images. Some owners of the imgages want to be contacted...I've had good success giving them a screensaver in exchange for permission to use their pics.

Use keywords as your business name, as this will be your anchor text. Also, 1 or 2 screensavers won't do much, you'll need to create and submit dozens, as not all directories will link directly back to you. But there are 100's of screensaver directories.


I recommend:
Screensaver software: ScreenSaver Factory 4

Submission software: PromoSoft

Also, once you're done with your screensavers, it's pretty easy to use the same graphics to make videos using Camtasia that you can upload to YouTube, etc. While this isn't a linking strategy, it can help drive traffic to your sites.
