Exchanging links with other relevant / related websites can add to your ranking with search engines like google and Bing. Sites that link to you that have a higher pagerank are, of course, worth more to your site in terms of ranking than those with a low or zero rank.

If you are looking for a way to find sites looking to exchange links try Link Market. This is free for the basic service.
