Dear Sir/Madam,

My name is David. I am the webmaster and web marketing manager at Aussie-storage.co.uk. I've greatly enjoyed looking through your site www.colour-republic.com and I was wondering if you'd be interested in exchanging links with Aussie-storage.

If you are interested, please send me the following details of your site:

URL:
TITLE:
DESCRIPTION:

I'll add your link here Storage Services London in the next 24 hours. As soon as it's ready, I'll send you a confirmation email along with the information (TITLE, URL and DESCRIPTION) regarding my website to be placed at yours.

If you are not the webmaster please forward this email to the person in charge.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Best Regards,

This one is from the one I agreed to

Hi I`m Stuart Wilson from ironmongerydirect.co.uk. We are the UK`s leading online ironmonger with the widest range in stock - over 11,500 products - and have been supplying architectural ironmongery to builders, joiners and shop fitters for over 35 years. .

We would like to set up a relationship with colour-republic.com, either by exchanging links with you (we can link to colour-republic.com from a relevant content page on ironmongerydirect.co.uk which we will explain when you reply) or by offering you some unique, free of charge, professionally written content on a subject of your choosing. These are both genuine offers and could help both of us so if you are interested, please read on . . . .

We are working with a specialist content firm here in the UK. They have a large team of high quality researchers and editors who can write on any subject. We are happy to commission them (at our expense!) to write some content for you to publish on colour-republic.com. You have complete control over the subject and there are absolutely no costs for you.

All we would ask is that you allow us to include one simple text link back to ironmongerydirect.co.uk in the content which will hopefully be found by the search engines in the longer term - which is how we would benefit.

Please let me know what you think.

Thanks and kind regards - Stuart Wilson
Web & E-commerce Executive, www.ironmongerydirect.co.uk


REMOVAL
Removal is probably the wrong word - you are not on any kind of mailing list because we identify and approach sites individually. However, I really do not want to upset anyone by making contact and if I have done so, I`m really sorry. I am always trying to improve our approach. Given that we have other sites, if you could reply with any of the following in the subject line, I will ensure that I learn from it!

REMOVE (no further contact regardless as to reason)
NO INTEREST (no interest in ironmongerydirect.co.uk but you do sometimes link)
NO LINKS (you never link with other sites)

Thanks!
