I would definitely agree with Chris, it's all the time!
The best point I have seen so far is the importance of "natural" links. I believe Google knows (for the most part) whether you place a link, or whether someone links to you because of your content. I have well over 600 links to my site (according to the sources I use, all are different) but only about 5 or 6 of them are "natural". My site is only a few months old and I am ranking for terms that get me traffic and convert into sales.
The links from forum sigs, blog commenting, directories, submission sites etc.. are not as valuable (I believe, and again I am not a "guru" or "expert") in the eyes of the almighty Google bot.
Concentrate more on valuable content and have some PATIENCE!
