Default Requesting Link Exchanges

Never start your email with this:

I recently visited your site XXXXXXXXX.com............
I could spend all day responding to these, but instead delete every single one.

Dan, post that link you have in your autoresponder.

I don't do this, but...

What is the "best" way to start an email link exchange request?

Thanks!

xxxxxxxxxx.com huh I knew you like the ladies Jeremy but didn't know you ran those kind of sites.

Poaching for link exchanges is difficult, I am more interested when someone is honest with their intentions and doesn't send me a template email. I delete every email I get that is in templete form.

When I email webmasters, I just try to make each email unique. Never use a template email for these.

Once contact is made and a trade established, then the only template I have for these situations is the one that has my Title, URL, Description for my link.

Here is an example of what I normally do when I see others who post link exchange requests who have PR and of course I do not so it makes it difficult. I am posting this to get comments as to if I am doing it right...if it sounds like it is out of desperation etc. I try to be honest about my intentions. All comments are welcome

Hello,

I seen your post abour link exchanges and am trying to get my site off the ground. I was using a free hosted site and with members here telling me to drop it and purchase my domain I went and did that. (Wish I had of done it 8 mths ago but it's there) Pages are being added daily with real content. If you would be interested in exchanging links that would be great however as of right now I am a pr0 so I would understand if you decide not to although I do expect that things will pick up. I have been with PAW for about 8 mths now so I am not a member who has just decided to create a website and will be dropping it within a couple of months. I do work very hard and spend alot of time reading tutorials and searching for ways to improve and help myself.... Everything on my site I have learned through tut's and asking around. Anyway this message could go on forever or I will stop here. My URL is

xxxxxxpokerriveronline.com

If you wish to exchange links let me know or if there is something else you may be interested in.

Cheryle

Haha, I would seriously consider going through with the link exchange if the email started this way.

Can I ask how you would start an offer for link exchange? (not that you night need to).

The only advice that I have inferred for link exchange so far is to beg uniquely.

Or you could just make content that deserves to be linked to...

Link exchanges are pretty pointless anymore. If you're getting links from a link or partners page, that page usually carries no weight at all in the search engines so for all practical matters, it's meaningless.

Nothing beats a natural link within the content of a quality site.

So make a good site and wait for people to link to you?
