what do you think about a directory of sites that are willing to swap links? It would definitely save time hunting around the internet and you know that these people want to swap when you contact them.

Would you use them?

Yes and Search Engine Optimization | Link Popularity | Web Promotion | Link Exchange Search Tool is a popular one it has a free and paid option.

Thanks you two. So I guess it's not worth my while starting one if you consider it adequately covered <G>

hmm - quickly looking I see that linkmetro, although a co.uk site, is not exclusive uk sites, which means you have a bit extra leg-work to find exclusive uk, although UK Link Exchange appears to be so.

No, not any more

[hairycornflakes]

do reciprocal links actually help or hinder a websites seo performance though?

[Brendon]

Reciprocal links still help in most cases, except where the site you are linking to gets a penalty - then you're linking to a bad neighbourhood

I would be more inclined in building one-way links than reciprocal links for now - You'll get more SEO benefits that way.
