Dear Webmaster,
My name is Bobby and I have just gone through your site, and visited many pages. I have noticed that you have good content on the site. It would be better if we link to each other as reciprocal link place an important role in a search engine ranking algorithm.
I have already placed a link to your site on the following webpage:-

Kindly link back to our site with the following details:

I saw your fantastic site today! <Oh boy... Garden Link> 8/5/05
Dear Webmaster,
<Yo!>
Hi my name is Nancy and I recently came across your website,
http://www.wetwebmedia.com/
I thought that your content is put together very well and that your website would be an excellent addition to my links page.  I have listed your website and can be found at the following link and displayed as follows:
http://www.all-about-water-gardens.com/related_links.html
Link Text: Wet Web Media
Site Description: Aquariums, Fish and Aquatic Information
All About Water Gardens is a website recently just getting started (created on July 15, 2005) and as such the site’s PR is on the low side, however we believe this is temporary, since we do not link with just any website.  By partnering with only quality sites, such as yours, we fully expect to have a top PR and traffic.  We are devoted to providing valuable information to those interested in learning more about landscaping through water gardening.  We already have published over 100 related articles online.  In the mean time we are trying to establish linking partnerships with other quality related websites.
I wonder if you would be interested in exchanging links in order to benefit our web site visitors by providing additional resources and increase traffic to both our web sites. Outlined below is the linking information I typically provide my linking partners use, however, you may change as required to meet the aesthetics of your website.
Headline: All About Water Gardens (link to http://www.all-about-water-gardens.com/index.html )
Description: Look no further for information and resources regarding building your ideal water garden.
If you would like to customize your information just let me know.  Also if you have any questions about our site, or about a link exchange please feel free to contact me directly via e-mail.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you for your time and considering this link exchange.

How do I get my site listed on your site??
Hello,
I was browsing the internet today and found your site. I am a water gardening contractor in Texas and was wondering how I could get listed in your links section. My website is www.TexasPonds.com In addition to installing ponds, I also give seminars and have had several articles published nationally. I currently write a monthly article in The Dirt Doctor's Dirt, a monthly organic gardening magazine. www.dirtdoctor.com.  Please get back with me to let me know if I qualify for your site. 
Thanks and Happy Pondering!!!

Pond Liner alternative to plastic (Link to add>
Hi Bob,
<Vance>
My name is Vance Collins.  I work for a company called Seepage Control, Inc here in Phoenix, AZ.  We manufacture a product called ESS-13 that we use to build and repair lakes and ponds.  It may sound hard to believe but we have repaired many, many lakes and ponds that were lined with plastic by simply pouring our polymer into the pond and allowing it to settle.  You can view our site at www.seepagecontrol.com .  We have been in business since 1958, and it just works.  Would you consider adding our company to your site wherever you think it fits best?
<Will do>
  (pond articles/FAQS? General Links?)  Thank you.  Your site has a lot of great information on it, and we would certainly like to be a part of it.  Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to try a sample of the product in one of your ponds.
Sincerely,
Vance Collins
Seepage Control, Inc.
<Thank you for "coming forward" and presenting yourself, product line and company. Bob Fenner>

Dear Sir,
I'm writing to you from Japan for the first time.
I am Matsuo Matsuda, representative of Matsuda Koi Farm.
We put up our websites this May. We would like you to log on to our website
http://www.koikoimatsuda.jp http://wwwkoikoimatsuda.jp/matsuda.pdf
<Very nice. Will add to our Pond subweb links site>
I had a news brief of our nishikikoi farm carried in the magazine called KOI
BITO this time.
I have attached the file in this e-mail. I'd like to know whether you can
open it or not.
I'm afraid that your anti-virus software are too cautious to allow it to be
opened.
Please keep in touch with us from now on. Thank you.
Best wishes,
