1. Submit articles to article directories.
It is probably one of the most popular ways of getting inbound links to your site. A few of the article sites where you can submit to are ideamarketers.com, ezinearticles.com, articlecity.com, and articlesfactory.com.
Not the only article, depending on what you want to promote or the theme of your website, you can also submit your own scripts, images, videos, jokes, 3d models, quotes, or other types of works to different websites or directories.
You may need to use a different type of works for linking purpose because:
1. you need to show examples of your works.
2. you have difficulties to create articles related to your products.
3. you have great ability in creating scripts or other types of works.
4. you have problems in English.
5. and so on.
Some webmasters create scripts where other webmasters can use the scripts as long as they keep certain link that points to the creator's websites.
Example: eclipsecrossword.com
Try to type in Google or other search engine phrases such as "submit cartoon", "submit movie" if you want to submit your works other than articles.
2. Submitting your site to directories
If your website is directory-worthy, you may try to submit your site to directories. Try to visit http://www.best-web-directories.com/directory-list.htm to find directories that accept paid or free submission.
2. Posting in forums

4. Reciprocal Linking (Link Swaps)
With this strategy, you get links to your site by also giving links from your site to other websites. Although it seems that search engines appreciate one-way inbound links more than reciprocal links, it is still a traffic-producing method you may consider to use. There are a few services available to automate the linking process. Try checking https://theupperranks.com/blog/reciprocal-linking if you want to use this strategy.

Of course, the possibilities of getting inbound links to your website could be endless. Be creative. By doing it successfully, you will be able to get your site listed or boost your position in the search engine and then build enough streams of traffic to your site
