SEO Connections is about both inbound and outbound links. It's also about the quality and amount of those links. The more links that point to a site, the more "popular" a site is going to be considered by the search engines. If fifty sites use the words "Awesome Websites" and link that text to a website, search engines are going to be more in favor of listing that website at the top of their index for that keyword phrase.
The sites that link to yours must be relevant, helpful sites all by themselves. The more "important" or "popular" sites that link to yours are, the more important and popular yours will be as well. The best way to succeed in this area is to become a viable resource of information for internet surfers like yourself. The more useful or informative the content, the more other websites will naturally link to yours. Remember, the concept of SEO Connections is not only about the amount of sites that point to yours, it's also about the quality of those connections.
Note: Obviously this has a lot to do with link building. If you're confused by link building or simply don't have to time to do all that it takes, I'd recommend SEO PowerSuite. You can read my review of it on the SEO Resources page.
