Here's one way to get a free inbound link to your blog.

There are several blogs out there that seem to make a habit of republishing other people's blog posts, by way of your blog's RSS feed. They republish your full article, without making edits to your article.

An example of such a blog is "Bored Property". They republished my article, "Business Websites Look Too Cold"...

http://property.boredblogs.net/business-looking-websites-look-too-cold/

Notice that half way down the article, there's a link on the phrase, "Put Your Photo on Your Website".

When I wrote the article on my blog, I placed this link to an older article of mine. Thus, by republishing my article, they copied the link as well. Hence, I have an inbound link from them.

So, as a good practice, try to find a way to link to one of your other pages on each new article you write. That link could very well up becoming an inbound link on someone else's site.
