What has been the best Link Bait you have seen for Low budgets? All Ideas welcome!

Our site www.project365.co.uk was submitted to CSS Mania and got awarded best site of the week for handrawn sites, we went from 100 hits a month to 3500 per month becuase all the other css bloggers featured our site as a result of this.
Since then we probably still get over 3500 hits a month from this and I reckon maybe 2 or 3 leads per month as a result. the fact that many of the leads are from asia and we tend not to convert them into business is beside the point. ( we have converted a few)
It took me less than 5 mins to suggest our link and cost not a single penny.

The answer to that is Top Secret #1.
(honestly... I have not seen any linkbait that is quick and easy.. most of what I have that gets links has cost a lot of money or a lot of time... and some of the things that I have spent significantly on have not earned that many links. )

Before I was able to fund a writer, I used to go around the office and ask the knowledgeable staff to write short articles for our company website. People love to see their names in print, even if it's just the company website!
Also, depending on your niche, creating an info-graphic can provide a LOT of good links for relatively little effort (a few hours of research work)
Those are my two suggestions, best of luck!

Spam links - what would you do?
Hello, A few months back our website was hacked which we noticed quickly and got fixed. However, there still is a lot of dodgy backlinks, linking to the spam pages. They come up in Webmaster Tools, Moz and SEM rush. According to the Moz Spam tool, a few of them have been given 7 flags which Moz suggests gives a 30% chance of being penalised by Google. The website has great rankings (position 1-3 in most targeted keywords) so I am scared of doing something that will harm the rankings, however I also aware that Google may do an update which could take these spam links into account. I have no experience of using the disavow tool but from reading up about it, it should only be used as a last resort. So my question is - what would you do?

"Activating" Links - Do External Links Have to Be Clicked On to Really Have Value?
I heard an SEO talk about the concept of "activating" a link - meaning that if an external link to your site exists, but google doesn't detect that it has gotten any actual clicks, they will significantly discount or ignore the value of the link. Obviously between Chrome, toolbars, and GA, google does have a lot of ways to detect whether a link has gotten clicks. What is the SEOmoz take on this issue?

Changing links
Hi guys i wanted you views on changing the anchor text of links. I have quality links coming in but with year terms such as 2012 in there, if i want to change them all to 2013 for example would it be badly seen by Google? I cant say i feel comfortable about doing it but they are my links and are related to our products. Any advice much appreciated.

If I write a PR release on a site such as PRweb with anchor-text links that is picked up and published by other news sites, do the engines consider this duplicate content or additional, beneficial links?
I recently wrote a news release on PRweb that was picked up identically by 8 other news websites, with the same anchor-text links as the original. Is the reproduction of duplicate content and links across different websites like this to the benefit or detriment of SEO and ranking power? Some of the links are: http://www.mynewsdesk.com/uk/view/pressrelease/eventa-new-eventa-christmas-parties-website-is-launched-648923?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=Alert&utm_content=pressrelease http://www.prweb.com/releases/christmasparties/neweventasite/prweb8562064.htm Many thanks!!
