Link popularity tips and tricks When you ask the webmasters of other web sites for a reciprocal links, you should be sure that you use a good text in your link request email message. Webmasters get dozens and sometimes even hundreds of email messages every day. Many of those email messages are unsolicited messages with advertising (so called spam mails). It's very important that you personalize each and every email message that you send to potential link partners. Otherwise, your email message might be considered as spam. Here are some tips and tricks for a good link request email message Your email message must not have a subject that sounds like advertising. Meanwhile, even email messages with the infamous subject line "Let's trade links!" will be deleted immediately without reading the body text. Too many people have used that subject line in the past and therefore it's not effective anymore. Refrain from salutations like "Dear Sir / Madam", "Dear webmaster," or "Hi!". If you use a personalized salutation, then you'll get many more webmasters to read your email message at all. We recommend that you take a look at the web site of the potential link partner before sending an email message. Try to find the name of the contact person. If the webmaster is called Paul, then write "Dear Paul,". Ask yourself: Which email message would you trust more, one that says "Hello Internet user!" or one that says "Hello <your name>"? You must make sure that you've really visited their site. Tell the webmasters of the other sites what you like specifically of their web site, for example the clear navigation, the blue buttons, the friendly pictures, a special article, etc. Only include links to your own web site in the email message. Never include links to other web sites or even advertising links. Your email message will look like another spam email message and it will be deleted immediately. The key to getting many potential link partners to link back to your site is personalization.
