back link building ????

New to the site,after some advice on backlinks.
which is the best way of getting backlinks ??
have searched all over the interweb reading different views.
is it best to hire a couple of writers,use a auto submitter(which is best for value),use a paid service(agian any good ones),spend hours myself submitting,or all of the above,or any ways that i have missed??
many thanks in advance!!!

Depends on a lot of factors. The strength of your site, the competition. There is no one size fits all.
Start here and test what other people are doing. If it works for you do it more. Always test to see your own results.
