Blogging is a very effective way to get natural inbound links, and by having a personal blog at your website, you can more easily make commentary at other sites that link back to you. DO NOT spam blog comments with advertisement; your goal is to generate an online reputation you can be proud of. Blog owners and guests will not take kindly to blog spam. The key to effective blogging for links is to ensure you comment relevantly & intelligently about the specific subject in the blog. A well thought-out response to a relevant blog or article can bring not only search engines, but more importantly other readers of the blog to your website through the link. If your content proves interesting, you can build much more than just a single link through your comments.
Another important thing to remember is that your link in blog comments could not count at all in the search engines. Many blogs prevent access to these comments or don't offer direct, spiderable links for blog visitors. This, combined with the information that these comments are buried at least 2-3 links deep from the main page means that you should keep your focus on the visitors you might generate, rather than the search engine optimization you might get.
