2. Before you sent an email, it would be a good idea to browse through the other’s person site. Some people do not even bother doing so. All they need to know is that the particular person website has a higher page rank and they would like to link to it. That has a very negative impact. The owner of the website will be able to identify your ill intention of exchanging link. You could always provide a nice comment on the contents of the website.

7. Do not continuously spam emails to follow up on your request. The other person might be busy or out of town and do not have access to the internet. Please try to be patient and wait for the other person to response.

8. Remember to write a short thank you email once your link is added. It will make sure that you stand out from the rest of the other people. Furthermore, the website owner that you traded links might have other contacts that are willing to trade link with your website as well. Therefore it is never bad thing to be polite and thanking someone. It will work out to your benefit in the long while.
