pageoneresults, personally, I do not touch social media sites, but I do get a number of tweets, FB mentions etc. Saves me doing it ;)

Stay way from any bulk link opportunities. ALL of them will produce less than satisfactory results and are more than likely to get you algorithmically penalized.

Totally agree. I manually check out every site I want to link to/from.

I got some good links from looking at WM Tools. I looked to see who was giving me the most links. Then went to the page where I was located on.

From there, I spotted other related sites. Some looked better than others, so I cherry-picked a few.

When I wrote to them (after checking out their site) I mentioned where I spotted them from, and as we are related sites, would you consider our site.

Worked for me :)
