Thanks for the advice Darren, I am a new blogger and am really enjoying the experience of posting and researching ideas for my blog and it is almost like a whole new world has opened up for me. I originally decided to start up blogging purely to find out what it was all about so I can relate to my children as they grow up and embrace technology, unlike my parents who were (and still are) clueless as to what a website is, or how to send an email. I am moderately tech savvy with the basics of the net however I am loving learning all the new stuff and your tips have been great. Thanks again.

Good info Darren. I must say though that the most important think is that you are providing value or at most, have something worthwhile for the person you are contacting to link back to.

Thanks a lot for sharing the tips for wannabe bloggers like us. I think, good networking with bloggers from the similar field always work. If they see value in it, they will definitely link out to you, you don’t have to ask for it. Being aggressive surely, will not hep and you will be frown upon

Hi, Mr. Carrer Video Expert. I think you misunderstood my comment. I can’t blame you, I suppose I lack the root words. Anyway, if you’ll read my post entitled “Common Unethical Lines By Bloggers” on my blog, you will notice that I am not against two bloggers linked with anyone else, or rquesting for exchange links. What I think is “unethical” is when you will only link one’s site to yours if he will only link your site to him. Isn’t it unethical? What if one’s site will worth to link to yours because you used his post as reference to your post, will you require him to link your site to him before you link his site to yours? I don’t think it’s fair, and this is what I meant. Sorry if I mislead you.

Merry Christmas!

Just couldn’t help doing some light reading while waiting for the kids to wake up and open presents.

I’m struck by what Guardian Angel said – ” to request it [reciprocal links] because you link their site to yours is simply unethical.” I don’t think anything could be farther from the truth. Nothing unethical at all about two webmasters/bloggers working together to help their readers/viewers.

If you want to talk about unethical linking, you might want to mention link farms, ‘paid for links’, and 3-way linking (in an effort to fool search engines) well ahead of reciprocal linking. Matt Cutts seems to think reciprocal links are ‘natural.’

I think that it is fine to request link from others, but to request it because you link their site to yours is simply unethical. Actually, I just made a post about unethical lines of bloggers and requesting exchange link is one of them.

Great article. What bothers me most is when people get to the point too quickly and simply ask for a link and say “check my site and link there if you like it. I’ll do the same!!” It isn’t the worst request, except bloggers are typically busy writing and I really don’t want to surf to your site just to decide if it’s relevant to my site. Follow the advice here and at least give a brief description!

For instance, at my site we try to track down lies, cheats, political correct mumbo jumbo, and defeat the evil fat, lazy mentality that has invaded our society. But a lot people don’t find it funny or helpful. We either make people change, laugh, or … ummm… sometimes cry. It’s a hard job, but someone has to do it. Therefore, I Blog Fat

Hi! My blog is about one and half month old only, and I am really new in this blogging business. Anyways, my friends like my blog so much and they promised me to share it with others. I think it’s good that I use 1 to 3 sentences only per post to make it simple and not “boring”. I also add some pictures to make it more attractive. However, I just want to ask if it is healthy if my blog sounds too “general” and “too many topics” involved?…thanks and good luck to all of us!

I recently set up by blog (covering UK Football, or soccer to you across the pond), and was about to embark on some blog ‘community work’.

One thing that I will do is in my emails, introduce myself, and ask for them to pick a fantasy football style team. I’ll set up a fake tournament (with the matches played out by my 360), post results and tournament news on my blog, and hopefully other bloggers will get invloved and post about it on their site.

I’ll let you know how it goes!

As it is noted the key is – the guy you ask a link for should have the same theme as your blog. There are a lot of con artists whose blogs are nothing more than BS. So find the type of guys who are genuine, think like you and are interested in your blog, its therme and content.

Goodluck and Godbless,

Regards,
Vishnu

Hello All

I’m new to blogging and was wondering if anyone had a short email script they could provide me with in asking bloggers for links. I won’t use it exactly of course, I will just use it as a source of inspiration.

Your help is greatly appreciated!
