>What communitynews said. I'd avoid getting obsessed about backlinks/PR and concentrate on useful content/services you can add to your site that will attract links naturally. Server logs give you a great picture of what words/phrases people are using to find your site. Usually looking through those logs will give you ideas about other pages would be good to add to your site, for example.

Excellent, thanks communitynews and GoogleGuy! Is there any thing else besides the above that one can mine from the server logs?

Thanks again,
