A while back I wrote a post about the funniest link exchange request I ever got. So I thought I would in all fairness present the best (seriously) link exchange e-mail I ever received. Here it is:
Hi,
We’re interested in exchanging links with you. Please let us know if you’re interested.
Regards,
I love this e-mail! Why you say? Because it’s short and to the point. The person who wrote this e-mail knows that I did not ask for it, and is being respectful of my time. Very smart.
So did I give him the link? Hell no, we don’t swap links. But it doesn’t change the fact that I really liked the way they asked.
Short and to the point is always the best approach!
Yep, if you can’t make a decent argument for why the two sites are related, just keep it short and sweet!
Straight to the point and straight to the trash..It lacks all atom of request..
That’s a trash email right from the get go. I prefer a little more personalization myself.
