Is there an updated link building guide?

As title says - similar to this one https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/method-simple-seo.519041/ but more up to date?

Thanks.

 

I have also been searching unsuccessfully for something from late 2016 or this year

 

this is a thread from 2015 of tommy, but still relevant
