What do you think about looking for hacked websites related to your niche, find them and then contact the owner or administrator telling them about the hack and maybe even help them clean it everything up.
Maybe helping your competition can actually lead to getting backlinks from them. Did this sort of thing a couple of times, like point out certain problems or hacks websites had.
It's a great way to make contact and develop a relationship.
Sure some people will only say "thanks" and proceed to ignore you, but most will actually be happy for you helping them and will be opened to collaborations.

I would just like to know how you would know that another website has been hacked or has a problem? Sorry probably a really stupid question but I wouldn't have a clue how to spot that.
I recently had someone contact me about one of my websites. She told me she loved my website and just wanted to let me know that some of my menus and links weren't working. I check my website and everything looked fine so I asked her to let me know which links etc were a problem. She replied that she couldn't get onto my website at all anymore so she couldn't tell me, and in that same email she asked me to link to a website that she was working on. So I think she was just taking a chance with me. This sounds like a brilliant idea. I would certainly be happy to help someone that made me aware of any problems I might have.
