Submit interesting content to social bookmarking sites such as Digg and Delicious.
Facebook fanpages can be useful too.

Also, those third party Facebook “like” sites where you can create a phrase/status that people like. These are not attached to your personal profile but are utterly independent. If you create a compelling phrase, quote, mantra, sentence, question etc, you can usually add a URL at the end. This will not be an anchored link, which means people will have to copy the URL into their browser. But these things can blow up and go big time viral.

The point of all this is that traffic is increased, helping to boost your PageRank, and contributing to organic traffic.

Just keep adding good content to the site. That is what pulls in the visitors. The search engines are getting wise to the sites where you can post links to your site. Too many people doing that and the search engines don’t like it.

Only use a few keywords that describe what you are offering. Not a lot of wasted words designed to fool people into clicking on your site. That backfires.

Write to newspapers and magazines (Wall Street Journal and PC Magazine) that post lists of interesting websites every month. If you get on one of their lists, you will get discovered.

Backlinks, backlinks, backlinks! lol. These are a +1 vote to your site/URL for every link you have which means Google thinks your link is worth more.

Of course you want fresh, newly updated content. Google loves new content and even has a specific search for it. Add content as often as possible!

Submit your content to bookmarking sites but you probably already know this since you are a seasoned Webmaster/SEOer.

Deep Linking is critical. Most webmasters don’t get this but naturally a website gets deep links to the URLs of content, not to the homepage. You need to make linkbacks to the content in your site.

SEO Friendly URLs are critical to high ranking.

You need the keywords/phrases in your title in order to rank high. Make sure they are part of your title!
