Chances are, they will Tweet it, and if they again expand on yours, they will link back. I've done this with a post from Problogger myself. The one about Home Bases, Outposts, and Frontiers.

I've been asked for links from people I don't know, but usually they offer something in exchange. I guess I'm just holding on to the hope that if I link to them often enough, they might return the favor.

Also... There's a lot to be said for writing about topics with sheer coolness factor. :) I think this is easier with shopping/gadget blogs, but if you find something really cool to write about in your niche, the bigger blogs in your niche (the ones updating their sites multiple times a day and who are always looking for new things to write about) tend to find you. Good list.

I agree that attracting backlinks from other blogs is always an uphill battle. I spend hours crafting a piece that I think is pure viral gold only for it to languish with only a cpouple of backlinks if I'm lucky. Plenty of traffic - StumbleUpon is great for good content - but no one linking back. I think it takes more than good content. The most successful content I find is that which invites a response. Just as we hope for plenty of comments on posts, sometimes leaving a question slightly open can motivate others to continue the thread on their blogs. One common technique used to atrtract links is providing a useful resource. But sometimes this can backfire. If a blog post does too much in covering all aspects of a particular issue, providing too comprehensive an answer, it leaves commenters and other bloggers nowhere to go. Leave them a little gap and then other bloggers will fill that gap of opinion or information with their own comments and posts, offering their own insight or perspective. Excellent advice.

I agree, though, it's not easy, especially in the fashion blogger niche - it is a tight-knit clique and incredibly difficult to penetrate! But when they do respond and they do post your link, you're building a very valuable relationship...
