Linking. How do "you" do it?

    I'm wondering what are some things people do to manage links on their blogs. I use Wordpress and I'm wondering if it better to add recip links to one of the columns or provide a dedicated page to do it? Hoping to get some thoughts on the subject.

    If you are going to have a just a few links you could stick them on your front page, however, if you are going to have dozens of links, a dedicated page would be more appropriate. You could also have a combination of the two.

    Trackbacks work well for me! Usually the person on the other blog gives me trackbacks as well when I do that to them.

    If you create a single just for putting links on it,it may look like a link farm.That's not good.
    Do you mean www.wordpress.org by "recip links"? Yeah,link to authoritative site is good.

    But link to authoritative sites from within your posts that are related to subject matter, don't just blindly link to every authoritative site you can find lol.

    You won't get PR benefits from it, but your visitors would like it.

    Although I have heard rumors that the Googlebot appreciates a link back to Google?

    keep few good outbound related to topics of your blog, also you can create a partner page for it to avoid lot of links in index page
