Important Note: The deeper you bury their link within your website, and the more keyword phrases you can strategically place in the URI path separated by hyphens, underscores, slashes and/or other delimiters, the greater your chance of securing a quality link exchange. Three or more hyphens in your root domain is an added plus and sure to attract high quality link partners.

Okay, have I missed anything of importance?
Please keep in mind that this is satire and it is not suggested that you follow the above guidelines. While this is a common practice amongst the clueless in the industry, you surely don't want to get involved with this type of Internet marketing. Or, do you? ;)
Always use the title tag of their site when addressing them; "Dear Discount Widgets Online - Blue, Red, Green"
Include a pic of a hot chick [webmasterworld.com].

We have already placed a link to your site at:
www.spam-links-directory.com
We would appreciate if you link back to our site at:
www.some-other-domain.com
And if you're the industrious type and are sending out lots of cut 'n' pasted e-mails, make sure that the important bits of the mail, like the recipients name, website etc., are in a different font from the rest of the message. This gives the illusion of a carefully crafted, highly personal message.
An added touch is to tell them to forward this letter to 10 friends before sundown or else their hair will fall out and they will have bad luck for 7 years.

What satire? I found no satire in your words nor in those excellent additions by other quality WebmasterWorld members.
'While this is a common practice' means that it is the defacto standard. As we all know the web is built upon strict adherence to standards.
People who denigrate web standards often are actually marketing a 'proprietary' alternative. These people are not satirists they are <deleted>.
Might I ask if you are attempting to sell us 'best practice' in place of 'common practice'?
Shame on you sir, shame on you.
Provide a link in your automated link exchange request to the page on your high quality site where you've so graciously linked to the recipient. That page where their link appears should have a Google PageRank™ of 0-3 (zero to three) with 0 being the best, and have a unique keyword rich directory path like this...
No, no, no. No path, should be orphan page with PR 0. They'll never notice. (someone tried that on me a few days ago)
due to rigirous anti spamming policies I am unable to give you my domain from my site in the US
Too funny, and very true. I get one of those every third day.
To add to the inital post:
Dear {forgot_to_setup progam properly}
