You might do this with a “best-of” list post or with a blogroll —however you do it, but Google sees you sharing high-quality content with your audience, and rewards you for it.

Yet, if I’ve spent some time interacting with their community and leaving comments, it’s more likely that they will fulfil the request (as long as your resource is relevant, and awesome).
