SEO Metro is becoming increasingly annoyed at "link managers" and their requests and what they will do for our sites. These people tell us how they will link back to us and have multiple sites with many different niches that they can link back to our sites...yada, yada, yada. We explain our position that we are not "into" reciprocal linking but that we can link from several different sites giving one-way links. Then we post the link, email them the posting and ask for a one-way link into a different site for the "favor". These "link managers" are not heard from ever again.
For one, I would like to know what their (link manager) knowledge is on linking and link building. It appears they are just going for numbers and not quality. I just do not understand the lack of concern or ignorance over linking and how quality affects the search engines. SEO Metro received one flattering and notable email about one of our sites and that is was a perfect match and yada, yada, yada... I explained we were not engaging in reciprocal linking but were willing to give a front page link back to their site if they would take another one of their "many sites" and link back to another one of our sites. They were never heard from again.
It certainly appears these individuals or firms are after numbers versus quality just to show their clients the quantity of work versus the quality of work. We will certainly be taking this into account in the future and just may mail them the link to this post to see if the "link managers" would like to continue the dialogue.
