Hey Guys
Great work. I like this website and found the review on NearHop very useful. What was different about your review was that it came across as very unbiased and objective. Also, you incorporated helpful suggestions for Nearhop that is definitely a value add versus other sites that simply report the same news that hundreds of other sites also display
All the best
Regards
Steve
Hey Steve,
Thanks for the kind words. It’s nice to hear from our readers what they liked about our blog.
Keep dropping by…
Hello,
I came across your site when researching websites in your market and am very impressed with the design and layout of your website. Do you use a free template or did you design it yourself?
Just wanted to make a quick enquiry as to whether you would be interested in doing a link exchange. As I’m sure you know, building links can help boost our Google Rankings for our targeted keywords and
helps drive more traffic and revenue to our website.
We would be happy to consider a number of link exchanges, such as homepage exchanges, content exchanges or anything else you have in mind. Our website address is http://www.cowoniaudio.org.uk.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Regards,
Stephen
Hello,
Just wanted to say congratulations on an excellent website. Really like the design – did you design it yourself or is it a WordPress template?
I would like to propose a partnership with your website. To help promote our business http://www.voucheralerts.co.uk, we are looking to exchange links with the best quality sites in each sector, of which I believe yours is one. We would just be looking for a simple text link from your blogroll, footer or some other discreet location linking to our site. We would be happy to provide you with a £5 thank you payment. Alternatively, we could provide you with a return text link from our PR3 electronics site http://www.tv-sale.co.uk.
Furthermore, I wonder if you have considered making some extra money through your website by adding our plugin to your store. When complete, this plugin would display relevant voucher codes on your site for your users (under posts / in sidebar, etc). You would then earn a commission on sales, which can boost your revenues. If you would like to be added to the list for more details on this, just let me know.
Hope to hear from you soon and keep up the good work on your excellent blog!
Regards,
Danny
We will follow up via e-mail
