Effective ways to get links:

Link Baiting -the single most important method. It has mainly to do with good content that gets links the natural way.

Directory submissions Or Link Building using directories - We have four types of directories, pay-for-inclusion, reciprocal required, free and niche directories. Submitting your site to a free directory site is a cheap way to get quality links.

Link-Vault- The links you get from this program are mostly footer links and other low quality links but the program is extremely powerful. The links are mostly footer and the relevancy is not that good, other than that it is great.

Linking from your own web sites-Don’t interlink all, keep sites on different C-class IPs and avoid patterns.

link baiting is a bit hard to do because you need to convince people to link to your site by using of content. Blog commenting is still helpful as long as you don't spam...

Why no one mention socialbookmarking? some of them still dofollow.
So far, it's the easiest method and directory submission is the 2nd.

First, how would you define "effective" in terms of link building?

IMO, I build backlinks with two things in mind:
1. To help in SEO
2. To draw direct targeted traffic

Link Baiting is a challenging things to do you need to be creative in order to write what is the best that described your site.

The number of links is not important ... so effectiveness should be measured in relevancy. In this case, I don't see how a social network can be relevant for a niche market. (just an example)

Link baiting can be challenging because you don't have total control over it like you would something like article marketing.

One good link bait is free software, if you can do it.

Link baiting is quite challenging.. I like doing Social Bookmarking. Directory submission and blog commenting somewhat helps. Article submission and doing a good PR is a great strategy as well.

Old fashion way still effective in link building.

I hear many people say focus on content and then people will naturally link to you.
Of course, that would take a lot of time if your site even gets noticed without any links.
Article marketing, commenting on sites, and free ad sites are good ideas.
