If you want to get more visitors to your website, your should plan on link building. Ten or twenty links is not enough. You
should expect to get hundreds of incoming links.
First go to the Google keyword tool here.
https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordTool
Find a list of keywords that you want to target. Use the Exact Match criteria.
It is best if the keywords are in your domain name.
You then need to create your page content around the keywords.
When you create links, include the keywords in your incoming linking text.
You can read a little about getting incoming links through Social Bookmarking and directories on this page.
www.internethandholding.com/Members/LinkBuildingandBookmarking.aspx
If you are a member in www.InternetHandholding.com you can find there a list of many bookmarking websites and directories. The more places you place links back to your website the better.
For starters, submit your website to these directories:
www.bing.com
www.dmoz.com
www.google.com
www.yahoo.com
Sign up for accounts and post bookmarks to your website at some of these:
www.delicious.com
www.digg.com
www.faves.com
www.stumbleupon.com
Exchange links with other websites that have a similar audience. Below are two sample emails.
You can see, one of the nice things about having keywords in the domain name is those keywords are automatically included in the link.

Sample 1 - Wait for them to reply before adding their link
