Contact similar tribes, and ask them to link to you, and state you will do the same for them (see /t/linuxadmin rules for an example)
Post good content in the tribe, offer help where applicable, and just all around be cool. Also, get mods you can trust. Check their rep and past posts before offering them a spot.

It also helps to run a tribe about something a lot of people know/use/need/find interesting.
