Webmaster v the personal touch

trading reciprocal links

[caine]

Hello active list followers,

This has been doing my head in for a while. I have always, asked of other webmasters, site guardians for reciprocal links, using my webmaster email address for which ever site i am building up links for, but i used my name for a site once and got immediate results.

So has anyone got it down cold, about whether the [e-mail] should ask or [e-mail] for the best results in obtaining quality links?

I always use the personal address.......

From the other end of that e-mail (have gotten them many times), personal address presents a much friendlier image, IMHO.

Use a personal address... but not your real one.

If you hand out your real address, you never know where it might end up. Create an alias, say [e-mail], and use that. set your e-mail client to send/recieve on it, and there you go! Also helps with keeping correspondence in order (providing you don't have so many aliases, you can't remember whos who)

>Create an alias

We do that with SEs
Submit Email addy is [e-mail]
If our addy gets sold we will know it.
So if we start getting SPAM from [e-mail] we can just filter it out.

Always go personal.
