Not really through SEO and backlinking per se, but weekly I'd choose some random high traffic site and cut the fucker right dwn, call the writer a fag, or whatever else. Then send them off a random email. Next thing you know they'd post some shit about me. Every time I'd wind up stealing a portion of their traffic. Was a reasonably good tactic. Not so sure it'd work as well today, but it sure worked then.
