Vich,
SEO is an all round issue - both link bait (which will attract links) and link building (you actively pursuing links). To get you off the ground I'd recommend some of the latter.
Look at writing a couple of informative articles, creating some strong profiles on 'web 2.0' sites link Hub Pages and Squidoo.
Reply to this if you need some advice, I don't mind giving you some more suggestions

Link building
Hello everyone, I am building links for an e-commerce site and I need to increase the value of the links we get by placing them on specific pages in order to pass more juice to inner pages. Which part of the website should I point the links to? Because there is no content section on the site what I can do is either link to the homepage (not an option) or link to inner pages such as category/subcategory/product pages. My doubt is that it wouldn't look natural to link to products pages from a piece of content or from a site where people go with the intention not to buy but to get information. Any opinions on this?

Are links from every page of a partners website to my website bad for seo?
I have asked a partner website to link to my website in the Menu Bar. Which has resulted in a link to my website from every page of the partners website (Over 1000 Pages). The link is not a "nofollow" link, it is a regular link. Can this have any negative effects in terms of SEO?

Ideas for promoting some articles that have been written about me
Hi i would like some ideas on how i promote some websites that do not belong to me. The reason i would like to promote them is because they are newspaper sites that have written articles about me that have appeared in newspapers and now they have appeared on their website. One newspaper article that was done last week which is on their site is already on page two but others that were done some time ago, a few months ago are on page six and seven and i would like to try and get them on page one. Any ideas on how i can do this would be great as this would be great to gain as much exposure from these articles as possible
