At any one time I have 500+ links waiting acceptance for my directory http://www.welshdirectory.com/ I accept / reject between 100 & 200 sites a week (20-40 sites 4 or 5 times a week). My accept / reject email is quite bland and I'd like to offer a few suggestions of other sites to visit in the body of the email. My idea is to advertise your sites in my emails in return for a free submission to your paid directory or home page / site wide link from your directory site. I intend to place 3-4 links in each email. This is an ongoing offer i.e. your link will remain on my email for as long as you keep a reciprocal link up to my site. These links will take the form of anchor text within a descriptive sentence, for example: I'm open to offers, but at least expect a paid directory submission to a site with PR or multiple submissions to free directories ... but will consider all offers. PM me or post here.
