I do free sites almost every day. They get linked by LLs including big ones. But does it help the index page of my main site in terms of SE?

Any link back to your site helps, well long as the site linking in, is not a bad neighborhood.

Getting links from pages that are related to your page is even better. I think this is where so many submitters miss the boat. They complain about all the different catagory recips, which granted can be a lot, but in the long run it could be very well worth the time to get the right or very related/targeted links coming in. A little extra time the first time, could pay off in the long run.

neveremail - another quote for ya from Google rep:

One thing that I noticed in the first 300 posts or so was a discussion about whether backlinks or PageRanks were also being updated at the same time. In general, I wouldn't fixate too much on backlinks or PageRank during an update. The external backlinks/PR that we show have at least a couple factors that complicate analysis. First off, they are a snapshot in time, and the actual backlinks/PageRank used for ranking are from a different time interval. Another complicating factor is that we don't show every backlink on Google; we only show a subset of the backlinks we have internally. [One of the things we needed to do on our webmaster pages revamp was to go back and make sure it's clear that we only show a sampling of the backlinks we know about, not all backlinks.] The snapshotting + asynchronous nature + subsampling actions means that it's pretty hard to trace the reason for a ranking change back to a particular exported view of backlinks or PageRank. This is an area where I wouldn't read as much into the particular backlinks or PageRank that you see at any particular instant in time. Also, if a backlink or PageRank external update happened at the same time as ranking changes, I wouldn't read too much into how closely in time they happen together.
Just as a guide for people who don't eat and breathe WebmasterWorld, we typically show new backlink sample sets every 3-5 weeks or so. We have a bank of machines that computes PageRank continuously (and continually, I suppose; I wasn't an English major), but we only export new visible PageRanks every 3-4 months or so.

BTW - for those of you really interested in getting past all of the BS that flies around the different boards out there from self-made SEOs - this is a good link to bookmark as that rep from Google put to rest a lot of myths:
