    You have to admit that you cannot help but laugh when you get messages like this begging for a link in a PAID directory :D

    You should email him back and say that it costs money to get in. What is the page rank of the directory?

    I get a few of those every few weeks. My favorite one was the fellow asking for a permanent listing on the new listings page. :confused:

    I get them too...on a completely free directory. I suspect that they are using some automated tool that surfs the SERPs and then sends an email to every site on a given keyword asking for a link. So if you're getting them it's a good sign you could rank higher in the SERPs for whatever keyword they're using by doing some work on it.
