Link Building play a big role in SEO. It is a part of SEO that helps in boosting a site's keyword rankings but it is not a key that can bring your site to the top alone.

Well, if you guys want to get technical, Link Building & SEO are actually 2 separate components of SEM. (Please refer to the quote below)

Search engine marketing (SEM) is the process of marketing a website via Internet search engines; whether by improving rank in organic or natural listings, paid or sponsored listings or a combination thereof.

A comprehensive search engine marketing campaign is inclusive of (at least) the following functions:

* Search engine optimization
* Search engine and directory submission management
* Paid inclusion and trusted feed programs
* Pay-for-placement management (includes pay-per-click)
* Link popularity / reputation development
* ROI and performance monitoring and reporting

So don’t be confused by the SEO / SEM enigma. Now that you know the difference between the two, it’s not as complicated as it first seemed. Search engine optimization is simply a component of search engine marketing, period.

I shoot for a combination of some of those you mentioned. I can not do them all, nor can I do them all day long either. Some people do have more time than others or pay someone to do it for them. Some of them can be very time consuming too. I still think blog commenting at relevant sites that have decent rank can be very helpful. Google seems to love blogs.
