Entertainment Site with 30k+ Traffic. What Tools?

Been doing whitehat seo for a pr4 entertainment website that has been getting about 30k+ visitors a day. I have been building relevant manual links but feel like I could be using my time on other parts of the clients website while automating some other things.

These are entertainment sites similar to screencrush dot com, so what blackhat methods and tools could I use?

I'm not trying to spam links everywhere since I want to keep it as relevant as possible so I thought about Scrapebox + UltimateDemon but I have only researched these, I don't have any experience with them.

Any tips or strategies that won't leave a footprint while using blackhat tools?
