Build links and do some social bookmarking.
Go for back links fromTLD’s (top level domains like .co, .co.uk., .nl., .de) that are in your target region. Companies like teliad have them especially if you are targeting Germany or France. Yes they are paid links.
Do social bookmarking as this will also benefit you short term. I use sayseodesign but there are plenty out there.
Linkworth is good for buying cheap back links as well.
Be sure to check that the page rank is correct as google just had an update and more-than-not many websites were hit with big PR reductions.
Don’t build more links to an internal page than you do your front page.
Is the site optimised for SEO?
