It is important that you send your link partners custom link exchange

messages. Do not send the same message to all link partners and do not spam

potential link partners.

The webmaster of the other site is a real person. Be polite and try not to waste

the time of the other webmaster if you want a positive reply.

General tips for writing a link request email message

There are a few things that you can do to make sure that your link request email

messages work:

1.Get to the point

Most people get lots of email messages. Write short and simple email messages.

2.Make sure that your website has great content

Don't ask for a link if you're not convinced that your website is very good and

unique.

3.Don't be annoying

Don't send several email messages per week to the same person. If the other

website doesn't link to you tomorrow, they might do so in a few days.
