Okay, I just HAVE to post this somewhere where people will understand how cheeky this webmaster is! We run a pregnancy and parenting web directory on one of our websites where webmasters can list relevant websites. When the link is added the webmaster gets the "Your site has been added" email. This morning we had a reply to the email that was just amazingly bold. "Thanks for exchange link with us, but Your current LINKS page has a (0) ranking & I checked Google for a links directory listing for *link to page removed* but couldn't find one. Is there not another page with PR3 you can offer? We would greatly appreciate if you could replace our link any other link page which has an established page rank." Uh, I guess the guy gets an A for effort, but dang, pretty demanding for a free link which he didn't recip from what I can see. LOL Phew, Okay, LOL I feel much better now and can stop shaking my head in disbelief. Vickie
I had one guy tell me that he would not trade links with me when I had a page rank 4 page and he had a page rank 0 page. He did say he had a higher Alexa ranking than mine and that was the reason. Some guys are just idiots to be frank about it.
I actually wrote back to him pointing out that his link DID also appear on a PR 3 page already and that asking like that was bad webmaster etiquette and could result in his links being removed if he approaches sites like that LOL Hmmm wonder why I haven't heard back from him yet
