Have you looked at our blog section on Link Building? We have a lot of posts there that talk about many different ways to earn valuable links.

I would get rid of the Google Adsense links right under your main menu bar. Why do you want to send your visitors to another site as soon as they visit your site? It will decrease your pageviews, pageviews/user, and will increase your bounce-rate.
And you'd better convert your content url's to clean url format.
For instance your forum links is now: index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&view=index&category_id=0&Itemid=78
a forum URL like /automobile-forum would work better for you.

Hello Keri,
Thanks for a detailed inspection and time spent to analyse it.
-
Here, in India - a site with a .com is what is considered generic and is typed naturally instead of country specific .in or .co.in extension. Does having a .com impacts the rankings as searched in India. (Under webmaster - the geogparhical location is set as India only)
-
For warnings etc - we do regularly check google webmaster and yes takes very seriously for same. However - if we remove ads (which we learned from some major adsense enabled sites - these are the best practices - for monetizing and ad positioning ) pl suggest if we are doing anything wrong here. There is just one banner ad above the text fold and one link unit
-
By building links, 100% with you - but how to build do follow links from external sites - which is the best way to make backlinks - through Articles or other means
Thanks once again for time to analyse and suggest. Hope to get response for above. Thanks

What do you want your long-term results to be? I'd stop building links for the moment. Most are crap links right now -- if you sat down with a rep from a search engine, I don't think links like http://www.txtlinks.com/19/Business_and_Finance_Weblogs/72/ and http://www.selfgrowth.com/articles/tips-to-eliminate-fear-of-public-speaking would they pass the quality guidelines?
The site comes across as quite confusing when I try to examine it. The title tag and some text says it's for India, but it's on a dot com and it looks like the site is trying to hide the fact that it's for India and instead hoping you'll click on one of the many ads. It's hard to find information from the actual site, given the number of ads on the page.
If this were my site, I'd verify it in Google Webmaster Tools and see if there were any warnings about either my links or the quality of my pages. Google has started cracking down more recently on sites with a ton of ads on them above the fold. If it were my site, and I was wanting to attract visitors from India, I would also set that as my geographic target in Google Webmaster Tools.
I'd go through and make sure that my content was unique and valuable to the visitor. I'd ask if it was something that someone would want to link to, then go out and tell people about the content. I'd also tell them about my point of difference / unique selling proposition. Let people know what they can get from your site that they can't get from other, similar sites. As you build links, build them for your users, not for Google. Ask yourself if you would want to explain these links in a reinclusion request, or if you would want to remove them later. It's easier to never make the link then try to remove it later.
I know this wasn't the answer you were looking for, but you need to make sure the site is something that can earn natural links.

We are moving to HTTPS and wanted to know if our link building efforts were in vain or will the link juice pass to HTTPS?
We are switching to HTTPS and want to make sure the links we've gotten in the past will still transfer since they are pointing to HTTP? I'd hate to go back through and ask people to please add an s to the link.

Link Building - Affiliate Link Programs
I'm getting some conflicting information when researching this... I want to create the most organic link building strategy that not only gets high authority sites linking to a website, but relevant websites. I'm creating an affiliate link program where I link to partner and affiliate companies, who in turn link back to me. The question is where to put these links. I was initially thinking of putting them in the footer so they add credibility to every page, and in turn ask my affiliates to do the same thing. However; some sources say that Google no longer looks at links in the footer section. Is it true that Google doesn't count links in footer sections? And do you have any tips on creating this Affiliate Link Program?

Which link building method is most effective?
I have been looking at different seo companies for link building. I found a ranked list on Topseos.com. Many of them offer the same services as offshore SEOs, namely: Article marketing blog comments forum comments/profiles bookmarking PR directories Link acquisition by contacting relevants sites and negotiating a fee for a link I know that custom link acquisition is the most effective, but it gets very expensive. And, you don't know what each link is going to cost you. Here are my questions: Of the other methods (other thank custom link acquisition), how would you rank their effectiveness? The other methods seem kinda gimmicky, is it worth the time/money? Have you seen sites rank well for competitve keywords using articles/bookmarking/blog comments/directories etc? How do you know i a company is going to them manually as they claim? as opposed to using some automated software. Thanks

Link Building in non-competitive industry
Hello, My client's home page is targething 2 keywords - one at 43% difficulty (SEOMoz Keyword Difficulty Tool) and one at 50% difficulty. I want to link build for this person, but I analyzed the top 5 competitors and there is no resource section on any of the sites. We want to write 20 articles for our site. So there's no people linking to content that I can find. This messes up my link building because I always make targeted content on the subject that people are already linking to How do I link build in this case. Nothing stands out as something I could do with my site for link bait. Thanks!
