Water in Basement

Do you have any tips on keeping water out of my basement?
One way to keep water out is to install plastic window well covers on the basement windows. The covers help keep leaves and snow out. If you do get water in the basement due to natural or unnatural causes (such as a broken washing machine hose), the Fire Department will pump the water out at no charge.
