I had a email from a top rated London window cleaning company asking me the same thing.
I sent him details of a large window cleaning job that was going out to tender, not even a thank you from them

Dear Sirs,

 We are the top ranked window cleaning company for the London and south east of england on Google, MSN and Yahoo and receive a very high volume of hits.

 To achieve this, I have only linked with similar companies to ours.

 Therefore, would you be able to place a link on your web site? My details are  xxxx   window cleaning Services London - abseil - cradles - Reach and Wash.

 

Once this link is active, please notify me and a reciprocated link will be entered onto our site.

 

This arrangement will benefit us both, boost your web site rankings and helps us retain our leading position.

 

Regards

I had that one as well

Hi there I am looking at raising my search engine ranking and I see linking websites the easiest way forward.
Did you know that 'link popularity' has a major affect on where your website appears in search engine results?
Put simply, the more sites that link to you, the higher your link popularity.
This is especially true if the linking site is similar in content to yours.
Would you be able to place a link on your web site?
My details are: www.sajwindowcleaners.co.uk Title: Commercial window cleaning in Plymouth areas- Reach & Wash.
Once this link is active, please notify me and a reciprocated link will be entered onto our site.
This arrangement will benefit us both and boost your web site rankings too.

What a coincidence, me too :o

I'd rather not link to anybody else's website 'cause when I finally do rank higher than where I am at the moment (somewhere at the start ;D) I'll appreciate it more, because patience is a virtue ;D

I get these every day,  ::)

they are not in the same work as you for a start, I am not going to plug my site this time, because i will get stick for it and i cant be bothered to reply to it, but linking to sites that are in the same line ect is a benifit for you, linking to directories (most of them) IMO is a bad move as they have some many other window cleaners on the same page it is pointless, I personally dont do this, I like to be different and I know full well my site works.

Yes I have been emailing window cleaning companies seeing if we can link sites as someone told me it would boost your search engine ranking. I thought I would give it a try (no harm in asking).

As I’m pretty useless with computers and it sounded an easy way to do things.

Hope I have not offended anyone by doing this and I did not use this site to get your email address’s I went through the top ten pages in Google.

As Ronnie said I am not listed anywhere on google at the moment. (but I did get as high a page 2 for a while then all of a sudden disappeared ???)

Stu,

Any one that wants to link to my sites feel free and let me know and i will have the web guys put a link back.

This does work so if you can find people carrying out the same work but not direct compertition then good idea to link sites.

I have just had a major revamp to my site. It was done professionally. I asked my IT chap who does SEO (search engine optimization) about linking to other sites. He said due to masses of people abusing this by setting up link farms Google had changed to liking one way links only.

To prove it he set up two sites and one had  a few one way links, but the description and text was optimised. The other site was identical but had loads of two way links on. 
guess which one did best?

The one with a few one way links. If someone links to you because your service is good then thats the best link to have. if it was a site like the BBC linking to you (highly unlikely) you would be on top spot in seconds!

Hope this helps

I talked to my IT chap today, and I was partially right about my comments in my earlier post and partially wrong. So I am happy to stand corrected and apologize for the wrong bit.

If you had nearing 100 links (no one is sure of the actual number) on your site you will possibly considered a link farm and be dropped by google but a few quality two way links are a good thing.

Hope that helps

I've got two sites
1: www.willclean.eu which is on page one for this area
and
2: www.holidays-in-dorset.co.uk which needs a helping hand to move up the pages

There is a special code that I will install into the bottom of the links pages which looks better than putting in www.whatever......

Ok let's take the first web site
Go to www.willclean.eu then to the links page (which is called 'cleaning resources')
Near the bottom of this page you will see the following

Willclean Cleaning Services (http://www.willclean.eu/) - Carpet & Window cleaning for Hampshire

Copy then paste all of that into your web site. If you get an option of what format to paste it click the HTML option.

Believe me I knew jack kit about web sites about 4 months ago ;D

The same applies to this site www.holidays-in-dorset.co.uk
The code for this one will be

Aztec Holidays West Bay (http://www.holidays-in-dorset.co.uk/) - For your quality family Dorset Holiday
