Ah ok well that wasn't clear from your original post - or I missed it if it
was.

If the site is already listed, but you are having difficulty getting a new
page listed on the same site, this would be less to do with off page factors
such as external links, and more to do with its content, and/or whether the
content is duplicated etc.
Have you checked if the page is being buried in supplemental results? Maybe
you have two pages with similar keyphrase density and the other page is
ranking higher, pushing this page you are trying to get placed outside of
the results.

I would be happy to take a look for free and give you some pointers if you
want to mail me the url offlist.

The site is already being well indexed and has hundreds of links in to it so
I can't imagine that would be the issue. More specifically we are trying to
get a single page to achieve the ranking instead of the homepage itself. The
homepage for the site already ranks on the second page but we have reduced
its content with respect to the keywords to get the new page to hopefully
take on the ranking. 

The new page has no external links to it. Could this be an area to improve?
