Backlinking for a Brand New Site

I would recommend not to backlink your site for the first month. With google new algorith you wouldn't need lots of backlink, only quality backlink are enough such as social bookmark, blogroll from high PR websites/blog, article directories etc.

Basically if you write unique and quality content I'm pretty much sure you could rank your site easily these day as long as you target keywords with low to mid competition.

You can build links as fast as you can, but make sure you do it consistently. Should be no problem at al

Cheers
