? One-way text links from relevant pages continue to be the most valuable links
? Reciprocal linking continue to decline
? The 'shotgun' approach to link buying declines
? Mass email link requests decline
? Free directory submission declines
? Niche directory submission increases
? Article PR (article submission) increases
? Article submission sites (e.g. EzineArticles - 
http://www.ezinearticles.com , GoArticles - 
http://www.goarticles.com , and ArticleBlast - 
http://www.articleblast.com ) play a much bigger and more important role in helping online publishers locate quality articles (due to the increasing article volume)
? User popularity is just as important as link popularity, which means:
- The quality of article PR improves in order to increase site traffic, credibility, and loyalty
- The quality of website content improves in order to convert traffic and encourage repeat visits
