Thread: Webmasters removing my reciprocal link

i got request from other webmaster's to trade reciprocal link, i fulfilled my end of the bargain thinking they will do the same to me as rules of the market but i got a rude shock when i found out through instant position that the only external link i got is the markets.

I am assuming that you desired for "Rules of the Market" to be your anchor text in this link exchange.

From what I read, if read correctly was that all you got was "The Markets" as your anchor text.

If you are unhappy with this, then inform the webmasters who agreed to this link exchange and request that they properly change the anchor text to the phrase that you desire.

If they refuse to do so, then tell them that you will remove their links completely from your site and they will lose their links, that you will cancel the link exchange.

Give them a scare, I hate people who do not stick to what they say!

Hope This Helps;

P.S. Just on a sidenote, if you are going to start a thread here on WebTalkForums, try to at least create a more descriptive title. "What's This?" could be about anything, please try to be more specific, Thanks!

okay BWM let me rephrase, it is like this- you go to the market and the middle man says (where the middle man is the market) leave your order here or product here with me if in case a customer comes who wants to buy your product or a supplier comes who can supply your order comes then i'll act on your behalf and see that you get what you ordered for or sell your product.

when the deal is over and the middle man has assured you that your orders have been served or your product has been sold you realise on reaching home that the products you ordered were not delivered or the check you were paid bounced.

now in this scenario i got request from many premium members who wanted link exchange. the link exchange procedure works in this way
step 1 -you request a link exchange with just any member
step 2 -if i accept your request i must place a link to your site on my site and alert the market. the market will then check my site for the link in question. if the link is found then, you will be informed of the progress and step 3 -it will be your turn to link back to me but some people will always try to use shortcuts.

If you're referring to someone who removed your link from their site, or never even gave you a link in the first place, try using Search Engine Hub - seh.net which is a new reciprocal link checker. You tell it the URL you want to monitor and the link to check for. If the link is removed, the geen light next to it turns red. I've had brief back and forth conversation with the developer who says he is going to add e-mail notification. I like that it's an idea that is starting small and keeping it simple. I would suggest you try it. It works for me so far. It might even be better link monitoring than the market you speak of, which I assume is some sort of forum marketplace or link exchange site.

If they won't give you a link like I mentioned, or if they give you an unsatisfactory link like BW mentioned here, you should get in contact with them either way.

Yes, roceans, you bring up an interesting topic here but please be more descriptive with your thread titles. Thank you. I have taken the liberty of renaming this thread.

Well I do not participate in any form of link exchange, which is what you are talking about, but from what I can tell is that this system that you are currently using is not the best, for your needs.

If you are unhappy or unsatisfied with the service of this "Market" then stop using their services, appears to me that this "Market" is not concerned about individual webmaster concerns, this "Market" is more worried about creating link exchanges, than ensuring the quality and happiness of webmasters who use their services.

My personal opinion would be to not use any "Market" for link exchanges and conduct your own link exchanges, email individual webmasters yourself, in your same niche, and speak with them directly, do not allow any 3rd party to handle your link exchanges.

vectro- i found search engine hub seh.net a very powerful tool but the developers should try adding help or captions to help users like me.
