Hi Harry,

Not really a quick and simple answer, but there are numerous methods available for high value and white-hat links. For me, content is the best way to go - producing an infographic is an excellent method for gaining links, or writing an in-depth article as a guest blog on a high profile, relevant website with a link back to you. In terms of convincing someone to link to your site, let the content you produce do the talking - if they like it, they'll have no problem linking to you.

Here's an excellent article from Jon Cooper with an awesome list of link-building techniques:

And here's an article I wrote on the SEOMoz blog that covers producing high quality content:

Hope that helps you Harry! A lot of reading there but well worth it hopefully : )
