The best is “I just posted about you on my company’s blog and if you’d like us to keep it, simply add a link to us in return and send me the link.”

Um…what?

I pulled down my blogroll last year after I had so many stupid link exchange requests, followed by people harassing me because they weren’t on my blogroll.

I want to put my blogroll back up again, but I also don’t want to deal with the hassle from them again. I love your rotating blogroll – is it a Wordpress widget or something that you can use with Blogger, too? (Yes, I really need to get my site moved off of blogspot and to my shiny, pretty domain.)

I can’t believe companies still do that! It’s just so 1999…

I’ve only had one request for a link exchange and I thought it was so strange that I just deleted it.

I used to get those from two people at a certain PR company. A third person from that PR company contacted me to do a review. I ended up saying something nice about the product but not so nice things about the PR ageny. All of that nonsense then stopped – at least from them.

I’m not big on link lists, anyway. I prefer to find new blogs via the comments. I figure, if someone comments frequently, they must blog frequently, and that’s the kind of blog I like to check out. Also? I WILL occasionally click through via a personal blog list, but only rarely and only if I have tons of time to kill (i.e. NEVER)

i can always tell that i’m not a very popular blogger when i read about all the offers all you “cool kids table” bloggers have to deal with. link exchange? seriously? i’ve never received any such email – kind of makes me glad to be unpopular.

Sing it, Sister.

Nothing makes me hit the delete button faster than those damn link exchange emails. Except maybe offers from Indonesia to make my d*ck bigger.

I just got one of those the other day! I was surprised, I hadn’t seen one in a while.

It is just bad manners.

I’m thinking this must be a record week of emails about such things for me- and then the follow up emails and the follow up emails to the follow ups… gah!
